Soviet Afro-Asian Solidarity Committee

The Soviet Afro-Asian Solidarity Committee (Russian: Советский комитет солидарности стран Азии и Африки, abbreviated СКССАА, SKSSAA) was an organization in the Soviet Union, which mobilized solidarity efforts to national liberation movements in Africa and Asia.[1] SKSSAA was founded in May 1956.[2] SKSSAA was a member of the Afro-Asian People's Solidarity Organisation (AAPSO).[2] SKSSAA functioned as a Soviet semi-official foreign policy organ.[3] SKSSAA was funded through the Soviet Peace Fund. It worked in close coordination with the International Department of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union.[4] The discourse of SKSSAA was centered on two positions: support of the right of self-determination and anti-racism.[5]

The SKSSAA was also one of the founders of the Patrice Lumumba University.[6]

SKSSAA published, jointly with the Institute of Oriental Studies, the sociopolitical and scientific journal Aziia i Afrika Segodnia.[7][8]

As of 1968, Mirzo Tursunzoda was the chairman of SKSSAA.[9] Vladimir Shubin was secretary of SKSSAA at one point.[10] Members of minority populations (such as Caucasian and Central Asian ethnic groups) were highly represented in SKSSAA. Often SKSSAA portrayed the experience of peripheric Soviet regions as models of development towards Third World countries.[5]
