Four Years Under Death’s Ravenous Gaze

The conflict in Eastern Ukraine did not come as a surprise to the KKE. It marked the ignition of a confrontation that had long been in the making — methodically prepared in the pressure cooker of clashing powerful interests — and it is a direct consequence of the capitalist restoration that led to the dissolution of the Soviet Union. It is worth recalling that at the time, the entire spectrum of Greece’s political establishment, from the far right to the so-called “renewed Left” — except the KKE — was proclaiming that “the avenues of peace and prosperity” were opening up for the peoples.

Greenland: A "Northern Front" of Inter-Imperialist Rivalry

By Nikos Mottas 

The developments surrounding Greenland should not be treated as a diplomatic anomaly or as the product of individual political choices. 

They are a concentrated expression of the contemporary phase of imperialism, in which the sharpening competition among capitalist powers drags strategic regions and smaller peoples into conflicts not of their own making.

In a statement (here in Greek) concerning the visit of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in Greece and his meeting with Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis on Sunday 16 November, the Press Office of the CC of the Communist Party of Greece (KKE) stresses out:

Kaja Kallas's rabid Anticommunism and Russophobia

By Nikos Mottas

Recently, on the occasion of the 80th anniversary of People's Republic of China's victory against Japan, the EU High Representative on Foreign Affairs, Kaja Kallas proceeded to a new provocative statement. During a speech, she said: “Russia turned to China and said: 'Russia and China fought in World War II, we won World War II, we defeated Nazism' and I thought: 'Okay, that's something new'. If you know history, it raises a lot of questions. Nowadays, people don't read much and don't remember history. It's clear that they buy these narratives”.

KKE: The imperialist bargaining on Ukraine does not portend anything positive for the peoples

In a statement (here in Greek) regarding the negotiations between the US, EU-NATO, Ukraine and the Russian Federation, the Press Office of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Greece (KKE) stresses out:

“The live-streamed bargaining between those responsible for the war massacre in Ukraine does not portend anything positive for the people, nor does it focus on “peacemaking” and the “end of bloodshed”, as it is provocatively presented, but on the division of territories, “security guarantees” - that is, how the political-military relationship between NATO and Russian forces in Ukrainian territories will be settled - the businesses of large monopoly groups and arms packages.

Question by the MEPs of the KKE regarding the new attempt to ban communist ideology in Czech Republic

Question by the MEPs of the Communist Party of Greece (KKE) regarding the new attempt to ban communist ideology in the Czech Republic: 

Backed by the EU, whose official ideology is anti-communism, the Fiala government in the Czech Republic has pushed through despicable changes to the penal code. These changes provocatively criminalize support for communist ideology, equating it with Nazism and making it punishable by up to five years in prison. This paves the way for dangerous developments, such as the banning of the Communist Party and communist activity in the Czech Republic.

Czech Republic: The despicable attempt to criminalize communist ideology shall not pass!

Rally by the KSČM in Prague (Archive Photo)

Based on the shameful and deeply unhistorical "theory of the two extremes", the President of the Czech Republic, Petr Pavel (a former NATO General), signed on Friday 18/7 an amendment to the criminal code that criminalizes the "promotion of communist propaganda", putting it on a similar level to nazism!

The amendment invokes the known, unhistorical and shameful theory of the "two extremes", thus equating communism with the monster of nazism; under the amended criminal law, the public display of the sickle and hammer or the Soviet flag would incur similar penalty as bearing... swastikas or other Third Reich symbols!

European Parliament Resolution whitewashes Syria's Jihadist regime

In a statement (here in Greek), the Europarliament Group of the Communist Party of Greece (KKE) denounces the recent resolution - jointly adopted by the European People's Party (EPP), Social Democrats (S&D), Liberals, the Far-right and Greens – regarding the situation in Syria. 

 

The Resolution, which was issued  on the occasion of the terrorist bomb attack at Mar Elias Greek Orthodox Church in Damascus, consists a “whitewash of the reactionary government of the Jihadists, who have been dressed with Euro-Atlantic costumes and “sat on the neck” of the Syrian people, following the long-standing interventions of USA-NATO-EU and the military assistance of Turkey and Israel, which also occupy Syrian territories”, the KKE statement reads and adds:

 

The KKE on the issue of refugees and migrants

Speaking during a relevant debate in the Greek Parliament concerning the ongoing migrant-refugee crisis in the Mediterranean, the General Secretary of the KKE, Dimitris Koutsoumbas, said:

This figure that has doubled in the last decade due to an increase in armed conflicts, which have reached their highest level since World War II". 

Eliseos Vagenas: Overthrowing the decayed capitalist system and struggling for socialism is a necessity of our times

Overthrowing the decayed capitalist system and struggling for socialism is a necessity of our times

 

Excerpts from a speech delivered by Eliseos Vagenas, member of the CC of the Communist Party of Greece (KKE) and head of the International Relations Section of the CC, at an event organized during the 34^th Anti-Imperialist Camp of the Communist Youth of Greece (KNE) on the theme: “With the peoples all the way to freedom, against the system of injustice and war”:

 

Aleka Papariga: The KKE’s stance towards bourgeois governments is a valuable tool for our current struggles

“Under capitalism, no government is an independent authority. Power is exercised by the bourgeoisie, and the bourgeois state is the instrument of its power, to which all institutions are subordinate. The decisions of the EU and NATO are binding and take precedence over national constitutions and national legislation. Governments of bourgeois management cannot and do not want to abolish the law of laws: capitalist profit. The defence of the dictatorship of the bourgeoisie by all means is inevitable and obligatory. Laws are abolished through the revolutionary overthrow of the system itself and the establishment of a new form of power: of the working class in a socialist communist society."

 

The KKE and its revolutionary action are a thorn in the side of all kinds of anti-communists

Comment by the International Relations Section of the CC of the KKE:

The ongoing struggle of the KKE and the mass mobilizations currently taking place in Greece, in which the KKE and KNE are playing a leading role, have placed all kinds of anti-communists in a very difficult position. Supporters of Greece’s greater involvement in the war, alongside Israel and the USA, accuse the KKE of supporting ‘the mullahs’, the ‘theocratic regime’ of Iran,  ‘terrorists’ and even ‘conservatism’ through its stance. They also claim that it it ‘fosters anti-Semitism’ because it supports the just struggle of the Palestinian people, who are being massacred by the murderous state of Israel.
