After more than a year since the WLF uprising started, it seems that the situation has been hampered. Lack of inclusive political organization and leadership, and the necessary financial support has led to the erosion of forces and the quenching of the flames of the uprising, just as it did in 2019. Hundreds have been killed and many families deprived of their assets. It is time that the senior members of all the different opposition groups realize the importance of a consolidated leadership and start working towards it. A winning strategy can lead to forced structural reforms with the ultimate goal of dissolving the current regime and establishing a democracy at the lowest possible human and social cost. In order to be able to develop this strategy, first a consolidated leadership needs to be established.

Only such foundations can guarantee in the long-term that people will be able to justly enjoy the fruits of their effort. A continuous and long-term development of the economy, society and politics is necessary. The current best knowledge of humanity is that an institutionalized democracy provides the best political system for such developments.
