* New situation demands unity: OSPAAAL ( from Green Left Weekly )

The Organization of Solidarity with the People of Asia, Africa and Latin America ( Organización de Solidaridad con los Pueblos de Asia, África y América Latina ), abbreviated as OSPAAAL, is a Cuban political movement with the stated purpose of fighting globalisation, imperialism, neoliberalism and defending human rights.

One of the main purposes of the organisation is to promote the causes of socialism and communism in the Third World ; for example, OSPAAAL strongly supports Hugo Chávez and demands that the Cuban Five be released.

Social development, which the organization says is a human right, is a recurring theme in OSPAAAL publications.

From its foundation until the mid 1980s, OSPAAAL produced brightly coloured propaganda posters promoting their cause, however, financial difficulty and ink shortages forced the organization to stop producing these posters.

This allowed OSPAAAL to send its message to its subscribers around the world.
