The International Socialist Network Sovintern (Sovintern) is an international association of socialist, communist and anti-imperialist political parties and organizations founded in Moscow on 27 April 2026. It was co-founded by A Just Russia – For Truth, the American Communist Party, the Workers Party of Britain, the Sandinista National Liberation Front and several other parties and organizations.[1]
Sovintern presents itself as an alternative to the Socialist International and seeks to promote cooperation between socialist and anti-imperialist organizations. Despite its name, it is not a successor to the Communist International, nor does it function as a centralized international in the manner of the Comintern.
The organization's founding by A Just Russia – For Truth, a social democratic party supportive of the Russian government, alongside organizations ranging from Marxist-Leninists to patriotic socialists, has led to differing views regarding its political character. Supporters view it as a necessary anti-imperialist forum, while critics argue that its broad membership lacks ideological unity and a coherent revolutionary programme.
