Belarus: I could see CPB taking over when Lukashenko isn’t in charge anymore.

Burkina Faso: Their prime-minister seems to be a communist. Hopefully this means working towards a socialist state.

Cyprus: AKEL is one of the main opposition parties in Cyprus and their candidate for presidency went to the runoff election this year.

Greece: KKE is one of the main opposition parties and they keep growing.

Haiti: There are some revolutionary organisations involved in the protests against the government, maybe they’ll succeed.

Swaziland: The CPS is the main opposition to the king’s rule.

Taiwan: through reunification with PRC.

What others seem likely to you?

EDIT: I remembered South Africa is a candidate as well, the EFF is getting stronger

    On the ones you mentioned:

    Belarus and Burkina Faso maybe. Cyprus and Greece definitely not, they are too deeply embedded in the West’s system. And Haiti and Swaziland are very unlikely, seeing as there is already looming imperialist intervention in Haiti and i don’t know much about Swaziland but the monarchy seems pretty stable there.

    Taiwan reunification is an inevitability. It’s not a question of if it’s just when.

      I expect Belarus is very likely as well because they have increasingly strong ties with China now, and they’re already nominally communist. Also agree that Taiwan reunification is inevitable at this point.

      I think saying a definitely not, may be too hard a swing to the other side as well, the revolution is always our goal and I believe there is always room for hope, might be further in the future of closer to the present, but it should always be on the horizon, and who knows, revolutions are very hard to predict, situations change opportunities come along unexpectedly, but my problem with the parameter the comrade used for measuring likelyhood of such is electoral, and popularity of parties are not the best of measurements, the organization of the population I think is the best one, and burkina faso seems to have people supporting the anti imperialist movement there, but in Greece, the popularity of a party does not necessarily mean the population is organizing towards a change, it is a start but a timid one if you ask me, but it’s always nice to see. Again the road we need to build pave and walk on is the organization of the people, it needs to come from the ones on the base of the system, while the ones most affected by the exploitation are still blind by capitalism’s shining lights it is never going to be a revolution, the job of the ones of us ML’s that are not in that situation is to befriend support and help those that are, to find the shades and see that the lights hide their own oppression and the fact that they are strong, and have all the tools to build their own freedom.
