Nation?

Hello, (1) “The Communist opposes the oppression by any alien nation of his own and, at the same time, also resolutely opposes the oppression by his own nation of any other.”  (2) "The Communist opposes the oppression of his own nation by any alien nation and, at the same time, also resolutely opposes the oppression of any other nation by his own nation." Does (1) work given that (2) is the meaning that I want to convey? I find (2) very clumsy, with the multiple repetitions of the word 'nation,' and was wondering if I can use (1) instead. I am translating from another language so I have limited leeway in terms of word choice and order. Thank you.
