“Yanks to the Rescue”: 30 years since the U.S. helped re-elect Boris Yeltsin

The 3rd of July marked the 30th anniversary of Boris Yeltsin's re-election in one of the most consequential presidential contests of the twentieth century. Western governments, corporate media and international financial institutions celebrated the result as a triumph of "democracy" over the alleged threat of a communist return. 

For the Russian working class, however, the election meant something entirely different. It marked the decisive consolidation of the capitalist counter-revolution that had begun with the dissolution of the Soviet Union.

NATO: Who Will Finally Send the Bloodstained Alliance of Imperialism to the Dustbin of History?

By Nikos Mottas 

As NATO leaders conclude their summit in Ankara, once again proclaiming their commitment to "security," "stability" and the so-called "defense of democracy," the peoples have every reason to reject the mythology surrounding an alliance whose history is inseparable from imperialist aggression, intervention and war. 

Behind the carefully orchestrated communiqués, diplomatic handshakes and declarations of unity stands an organization created not to defend peace, but to defend the strategic interests of the dominant capitalist powers.

250 Years of U.S. History: Which America Do You Really Celebrate?

By Nikos Mottas

The fireworks have faded. The speeches have ended. Once again, the American ruling class celebrated another Independence Day beneath the familiar banners of liberty, democracy and the "American Dream." Yet beneath the official anniversary lies another America—one that rarely appears in presidential speeches or television retrospectives.

There has always been more than one America.

Communist Party of Ireland on the Irish Presidency of the EU: "There is simply not a better or more peaceful EU to be won"

Statement from the Communist Party of Ireland on the Irish Presidency of the EU

As the Irish government assumes the Presidency of the European Union from July our people will continue to be bombarded by over-exaggerated claims about the democratic nature of the EU and the extent of the Irish government influence on decisions, selling us the myth that we are at the heart of the EU power structures.  

Have you no shame? The European Parliament passes despicable anti-Cuba resolution

The European Parliament has once again placed itself openly on the side of U.S. imperialist pressure against socialist Cuba, approving a hostile resolution that demands “profound economic and political change” (!!) on the island, calls for new EU sanctions and threatens the suspension of the EU-Cuba Political Dialogue and Cooperation Agreement.

The resolution was approved by a narrow majority, with 283 votes in favour, 199 against and 85 abstentions, following an intense campaign of anti-Cuban propaganda and pressure inside the European Parliament (Check HERE what every MEP voted)

KKE: The EU is complicit in the U.S-Israel's dirty war against Iran and Lebanon

Intervening in the debate on the Middle East held in the plenary session of the European Parliament in Strasbourg following the announcement of the preliminary U.S.-Iran agreement, the Communist Party of Greece (KKE) European Parliamentary Group delivered a statement condemning the EU's role in the region.

KKE MEP Lefteris Nikolaou-Alavanos stressed the following:

European Communist Action: Statement on the G7 Summit and its dangerous anti-people agenda

In a statement about the upcoming G7 Summit in France, the European Communist Action stresses out: 

The main leaders of the Euro-Atlantic capitalist bloc will meet at the G7 Summit, to be held in Évian, France, from 15 to 17 June 2026, to update capitalist arrangements regarding energy, which is highly costly for the peoples, the so-called security and anti-people governance.

“The Only Superpower Is the Peoples”: International anti-war rally held in Crete

A strong anti-imperialist message was sent from Crete over the weekend as peace movements from Greece and the Middle East mobilized against the US-NATO military presence at Souda Bay, one of the alliance's most strategic bases in the Eastern Mediterranean.

The mobilization took place under the auspices of the World Peace Council (WPC) and was hosted by the Greek Committee for International Detente and Peace (EEDYE) in the framework of the Middle East Peace Movements Conference. 

Sovintern and WAP: False Anti-Imperialism in Red Disguise

By Josef Brant

In Moscow, the so-called new international socialist network, Sovintern, has been launched under the leadership of the Russian capital's own “left patriots.” 

The initiative is presented with grand rhetoric about socialism, anti-imperialism, anti-colonial struggle, and international solidarity. Yet behind the red symbols, a different reality emerges: not proletarian internationalism, but bourgeois campism.

Cuba is not a threat; it is a victim of U.S. terrorism

Yolanda and Fermín Rodríguez Díaz were 11 and 13 years old, respectively, when they were murdered on January 24, 1963, at the La Candelaria farm in Bolondrón by the gang of Juan José Catalá Coste, which operated in the southern part of Matanzas. 

 

Similarly, on March 13, 1962, in San Nicolás de Bari, then in Havana, the young Andrés Rojas Acosta was hanged with the same rope he was using to tie up his pig, a crime committed by the gang of the mercenary Waldemar Hernández.

 

Communist Party of Greece (KKE): Solidarity with the courageous people of Cuba against criminal imperialist plans and any attempt at military intervention

In a statement concerning the aggressive actions of the United States against Cuba, the Press Office of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Greece (KKE) emphasizes the following:

“We condemn the provocative issuance by the United States of an arrest warrant against the leader of the Cuban Revolution, Raúl Castro —a move through which US imperialism once again bares its teeth against the heroic Cuban people, whom it has long sought to strangle economically through the criminal blockade imposed upon the country.

China, the “Thucydides Trap” and the Illusion of “Anti-Imperialist Multipolarity”

By Nikos Mottas

President Xi Jinping’s invocation of the so-called “Thucydides Trap” during the recent hosting of Donald Trump was not a neutral geopolitical observation. It reflected a real and sharpening contradiction within the imperialist system: the contradiction between the dominant US-led capitalist bloc and the rising capitalist power of China.

According to the bourgeois theory of the “Thucydides Trap,” war becomes likely when an emerging power threatens the dominance of an established hegemon. 

KKE: Comment by the International Relations Section on the establishment of the so-called “SOVINTERN”

On the Plundering of the Soviet Legacy 

At present, two main tactics are being employed by the bourgeois classes in the territories of the former Soviet Union against the communist movement:

Pavel Blanco: Mexico's social democratic governments have yielded to U.S pressure

During the 24th IMCWP Working Group meeting held in İstanbul, soL TV - the Youtube channel of the soL News Portal - spoke with Pavel Blanco, General Secretary of the Communist Party of Mexico. In this interview, he assesses the latest developments on the recent imperialist aggression against the Americas.

 

The interview's transcript is the following: 

 

War against Iran: Trump's whim or a link in the strategy of US imperialism?

By Eliseos Vagenas 

The critical developments in the Persian Gulf region, marked by the US and Israeli military attack against Iran , which began on February 28, cast their shadow over global developments.

Every bourgeois media outlet and analyst has grabbed a “daisy”, trying to guess “will Trump strike again, or will he not strike again”. Such an approach, however, leaves important aspects of imperialist plans far from our attention and cultivates the mistaken perception that the peoples are hostages of a personality (Trump), who may not stand firm in his logic. 

The Role of China in the Imperialist War in Iran

By Nikos Mottas

What is unfolding around Iran is not an isolated war, nor simply another episode of instability in the Middle East. It is part of the ongoing US–Israeli imperialist aggression in the region, which itself unfolds within a broader confrontation between rival imperialist centers. 

Within this confrontation, China is not a distant observer or a neutral force. It is a rising capitalist power, deeply involved in the struggle for energy, routes and influence. And increasingly, it is a major strategic rival of the United States.

KKE: On the attempt to whitewash Spanish social democracy in order to mislead the people

The path to peace or the deception of the people?

Comment by the International Relations Section of the CC of the KKE on the attempt to whitewash Spanish social democracy in order to mislead the people:

Once again, both internationally and in our country, social democratic forces —such as PASOK, SYRIZA, the New Left, as well as other opportunist forces in Greece— are rushing, with no small degree of exaggeration, to celebrate, publishing headlines such as “Do it like Sánchez” and claiming that Spain “is choosing the path of peace”.

The Limits of Third Worldism: A Leninist Critique of False Anti-Imperialism

By Nikos Mottas 

In conditions of intensified imperialist competition—characterized by wars, realignments, and shifts in the global balance of power—the need for theoretical clarity becomes more decisive than ever. 

However, it is precisely under such conditions that ideological confusion often appears in the form of radicalism. One of the most characteristic expressions of this confusion today is what is commonly referred to as “Third Worldism”, a current that claims to defend anti-imperialism while deviating from the fundamental principles of Marxism–Leninism.

KKE: 65 years since the heroic victory of the Cuban Revolution at the Bay of Pigs

On the occasion of the 65th anniversary of the heroic victory of the Cuban Revolution at the Bay of Pigs, the CC of the Communist Party of Greece (KKE) stresses out: 

"In April 1961, the armed people of Cuba, under the leadership of Fidel Castro, crushed the attempted landing of US mercenary forces, inflicting a humiliating defeat on  North American imperialism.

The revolutionaries, led by the communists, delivered a decisive response to imperialist plans, halting the United States’ counter-revolutionary schemes, shattering the myth of the omnipotence of the imperialist superpower, and inspiring hope among the peoples of the world.
