KKE delegation meets Hadash MP Ofer Cassif

A delegation from the International Relations Section of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Greece (KKE) met with Ofer Cassif, MP of the Hadash Joint List in Israeli Parliament (Knesset) and member of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Israel (Maki), during his brief stay in Athens.

It is reminded that Ofer Cassif is being persecuted in Israel because he publicly condemns Netanyahu government's anti-people policy, opposes the genocide of the Palestinian people and the occupation, as well as the attacks against the other peoples of the region. 
 
In October 2023, Cassif was suspended from Knesset for 45 days, while a few days ago he was suspended from Knesset for 6 months, which is the longest sentence ever imposed on a Knesset member.

According to rizospastis.gr, George Marinos underlined KKE's solidarity towards the Communist Party of Israel and comrade Ofer Cassif, condemned the persecution of Israeli communists and other activists who oppose the policy of the Israeli murderous state, while expressing support for the struggles to end the genocide of the Palestinian people and the long-standing Israeli occupation.
