Therefore, this United front is to solve the problem of self-unity and unity in the proletarian liberation movement. The United front led by the proletariat and its political parties is part of the proletarian liberation movement. This United front has three remarkable characteristics: first, the proletariat is the organizer and leader of the United front.
