The Movement Towards Socialism (MAS) would win in the first round, according to the initial calculations and the results, by 52.4 per cent and with results above 60 per cent in La Paz and Cochabamba. The de facto president, the reactionary Jeanine Añez, has already admitted the victory of MAS in the first polls.

It has been a great triumph of the anti-fascist movement in Greece and all of Europe. After 5 years of the trial, the Greek justice declared the neo-Nazi party, "Golden Dawn", as a criminal organisation and the sentence for its leaders is expected.

A new war for the small territory of Nagorno-Karabakh has broken out on 27 September 2020. The armed clashes and bombings on Nagorno-Karabakh and its capital have not stopped. Hundreds of soldiers and civilians have already died in the fighting. And it may lead to a global war between Azerbaijan and Armenia. Both sides accuse each other of starting the conflict.

Socialist Workers' Movement of the Dominican Republic (IWU-FI section)

Between late September and mid-October 1937, took place the worst racist massacre of the 20th century the region, the Trujillo campaign of ethnic cleansing against the Haitian and Dominican community of Haitian descent in the Dominican Republic's border with Haiti. Although there are no precise figures on the number of people killed, due to the Dominican State's policy of concealment, it was a massacre in which hordes of military, police and civilians participated, some of them released from jails to join paramilitary gangs. Thousands of bodies were thrown into the sea or buried in common graves. Joaquín Balaguer, the dictatorship's foreign minister at the time of the massacre, estimated that 17,000 people were killed. There are records that executions of Haitians continued until mid-1938. In an agreement supported by the US government, the Dominican State payed a symbolic compensation of 550 thousand dollars to the Haitian State, the equivalent of approximately 9 million dollars today. However, the Dominican State has never fully assumed its responsibility, and the massacre is not officially commemorated.
