The Sixth (Prague) All-Russia Conference of the R.S.D.L.P.

JANUARY 5–17 (18–30), 1912

THE PARTY ORGANISATION ABROAD

The Conference recognises the absolute necessity for a single Party
organisation abroad that carries on its work of assisting the Party under
the control and guidance of the Central Committee.

The Conference approves the Committee of the Organisation

Abroad [1] as one of the Party organisations functioning abroad, and
summons all Party elements, irrespective of factions and trends, who
support the illegal Party and are waging an implacable fight against the
anti-Party trends (liquidationism), to rally around the Central Committee
in order to assist in the work of the Party in Russia and in creating a
single organisation abroad.

All groups abroad, without any exception, may communicate with Russian
organisations only through the Central Committee.

The Conference declares that the groups abroad which refuse to submit
to the Russian centre of Social-Democratic activity, i.e., to the Central
Committee, and which cause disorganisation by communicating with Russia
independently and ignoring the Central Committee, have no right to use the
name of the R.S.D.L.P
