 [No title]
It called on communists to fight socialists everywhere for control of trade unions; to infiltrate the armed forces, the factories and villages in capitalist countries; to support colonial revolts against the imperialist powers; to carry out periodic party purges; and always, first and foremost, to support the one and only "socialist" state: Soviet Russia.
However, the Soviet leaders and Soviet Foreign Commissar Georgii V. Chicherin (1872-1936) opposed the conditions attached to prospective Western credits, i.e., the payment of Tsarist debts, the restoration of foreign property in Russia, and the securing of Western credits and loans with key Soviet assets, which would be under Western control.

 Political Affairs Magazine - The Death of Slobodan Milosevic and the Death of Yugoslavia
After 1991, the imperialist powers saw Yugoslavia as another Communist country to be destroyed, regardless of the heroism of its people in fighting fascists during WWII and the remarkable achievements that socialist Yugoslavia made for its own people and within the movement of non-aligned nations.
The trial of Milosevic was in effect a continuation of the cold war "totalitarian" ideology that equates Communists with fascists out of all historical contexts, a whitewashing of the history of Yugoslavia and the imperialist nature of the NATO intervention.
In the "investigations" of the House Un-American Activities Committee and the Smith Act Trials in the United States, statements by Communist leaders were often taken out of context, and, through guilt by association, Communist leaders were made to appear responsible for all real, imagined, and exaggerated crimes committed in the name of the Communist movement.
