Young Communist League of Norway
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Norges Kommunistiske Ungdomsforbund (Young Communist League of Norway) was until April 2006 the youth league of Norges Kommunistiske Parti (NKP). April 1st 2006 NKP declared that NKU was no longer its youth organization, and that all youths interested in joining the movement should contact the party directly. NKU still persisted as an organization, however, and held a congress in the middle of May 2006, where it declared its wish to cooperate with NKP, but also to continue on its own if necessary. At the same time NKP organized a conferance of their own, where they established a new youth organization for the party, with the same name and logo as the original NKU. This has lead to a conflict over the rights to the name, logo, history, international contacts and property of NKU, which still persists in 2007.
NKU was a member of World Federation of Democratic Youth until end of October 2006, when WFDY decided to wait until status of NKU in Norway was resolved, before recognizing the organization's right of full membership.
