>Here, the history of the Russian Revolution offers an indispensable lesson. In 1918, the young Soviet Republic faced the advance of the German imperial army with a shattered force incapable of mounting effective resistance. Vladimir Lenin, against the objections of the so-called “left communists,” who demanded a “revolutionary war” to defend the entire territory, led the fledgling revolutionary state to sign the humiliating Treaty of Brest-Litovsk. This agreement ceded vast territories, including all of Ukraine and forty percent of Russia’s industrial base, to German imperialism. It was, by any measure, a massive defeat.

>Lenin’s critics labeled this a betrayal of the revolution and, in particular, of all the workers, peasants, and oppressed nationalities of the ceded territories who had fought and sacrificed everything in 1917, only to return to capitalism with the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk.


>However, Lenin understood what his critics failed to grasp: the goal was not to die with dignity, but to preserve the political instrument of the revolution. As the late Commander Hugo Chávez reflected after the failed 1992 rebellion: “Today we must retreat in order to advance tomorrow.” The treaty provided the necessary breathing room to consolidate the Soviet state, build the Red Army, and ultimately defeat not only the German Empire, but also the combined forces of counterrevolution and foreign intervention. History proves that those who denounced Lenin as a traitor in 1918 were wrong. All the ceded territories returned to the USSR a few years later.


>Even so, this was not the end of retreats and concessions. Faced with famine conditions caused primarily by the civil war, Lenin contributed to humanitarian aid efforts by American capitalist charities, developed relations with the countries that had just invaded the Soviet Union, and re-established deep economic and commercial ties with German imperialism. Abandoning “war communism,” he guided the state toward the mass reintroduction of capitalist property relations and invited foreign companies. This laid the groundwork, for example, for the Soviet state to sign agreements with the Ford Motor Company (headed by the fascist sympathizer Henry Ford) to establish a factory.
