Letter to Willi Schlamm, December 24, 1935
| Author(s) | Leon Trotsky |

| Written | 24 December 1935 |
Mr. Willi Schlamm
Prague
Dear Comrade:
The bearer of this letter [Ciliga] spent several years in Stalinâs prisons. It is the greatest disgrace of our time that the workersâ organizations remain silent about the crimes of the Stalinist bureaucracy. This is only the other side of the tendency to capitulate to fascism. However, it is time that those who are not deceived, corrupted, or simply bribed by the Soviet bureaucracy raise their voices in support of the heroic, revolutionary victims of the Bonapartist caste. Donât you think that yours should be among them? In my opinion, it is a question of a determined and systematic struggle, which could also open up important perspectives for Europe.
Best regards,
Leon Trotsky
