Pioneer Movement enrolling 2009, Red Square Moscow

Around 3,000 schoolchildren from Moscow and surrounding regions gathered on Red Square on Sunday the 17. of may 2009 to enroll in the communist Pioneer Movement, and paid their respects at Lenin's mausoleum.
Communist Party leader Vladimir Zyuganov and several lawmakers officiated at the ceremony, presenting the new members with the traditional red neckerchiefs worn by schoolchildren since the founding of the movement in the Soviet Union 87 years ago.

Zyuganov told the crowd: "You, tying your red neckerchiefs, have taken on the responsibility of fulfilling the best traditions of our great Soviet nation."

"I congratulate you, thank you for this responsible step, and hope that you will with honor declare your loyalty to the red banner."

The children then chanted in full the motto of the movement.

I used to be a member of the young pioneers organization here in Norway when i was a child. We used to sing this tune in Norwegian. I moves me emotionally to see this video.

Greetings to all our Soviet block comrades from the Communist Party of Great Britain-Marxist-Leninist. Great to see the little pioneers in Moscow pledging allegiance to the flag! Communism is far from dead comrades, take heart and carry the fight forward!

@Wakizashiwakizashi As a neutral and a Brit, I don't think the USSR will be back cos only Russia has second largest Communist party but United Russia likely to win election next year though majority will be reduced so likely Russia Federated state will stay. also Fascist groups are growing so may likely to help United Russia if to keep out communists.

Russian church leaders also don't want USSR back too or so I thought?

@alezal Is there still a pioneer movement in Norway? Are the Communists active in Norway? I think Norway is already a reasonably fair society as it's a mildly socialist society. I'm surprised there would be a huge Communist following there. In Ireland, there is an inactive Communist party and there was never a pioneer movement here.

I'm in love with Soviet Russia's culture and I wish that I could have been a Young Pioneer and grown up in the USSR. But no- I had to be born in the USA. USA lacks culture.
