The Organisation of Communist Internationalists (‹See Tfd›Russian: Организация Коммунистов Интернационалистов, romanizedOrganizatsiya Kommunistov Internatsionalistov; OKI) is a Trotskyist organization in Russia, created in May 2023 as a result of the merger of Marxist Tendency (the Russian section of the International Marxist Tendency, now the Revolutionary Communist International) with the communist organization the New Reds (‹See Tfd›Russian: Новые красные, romanized: Novyye krasnyye; NK). According to its own statements, the OCI has the goal of creating a revolutionary vanguard cadre party.

The RCI is a Trotskyist political International which is active in more in 40 countries.

The movements which merged in 2023 into the OCI participated in the 2021 protests[1][2][3] and the 2022 anti-war protests,[4] and also condemned the intervention of the CSTO forces in protest-ridden Kazakhstan.[5]

OCI after its establishment began to organize public events in Saint Petersburg, Moscow and other cities. The aim was to agitate the sympathizers of former Marxist Tendency and New Reds to join the newly formed organization and to tell about the merger.[6][7]
