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.

Archive Photo
The joint session of the European Parliament’s Committees on Foreign Affairs (AFET) and Human Rights (DROI), convened under the pretext of discussing “the human rights situation in Cuba,” was intended to become yet another parade of opponents and subversive elements hostile to the Cuban people, including the notorious provocateur José Daniel Ferrer, thus providing further justification for imperialist aggression against Cuba.

KKE MEPs denounce provocation by EU Commission

It demands the withdrawal of the persistent questions of historical truth raised by the sacrifice of the 200 communist heroes of Kaisariani 

The Commission is provocatively demanding the withdrawal of the Question submitted by the KKE’s MEPs. Based on the striking photographic evidence of the 200 communists who stood up face to face with the Nazi monster, the Question exposes the unhistorical nature of the EU’s ideology, which equates communism with the monster of fascism, as well as its undermining and deliberate stance towards the still-unfulfilled demand that German war reparations be paid for the Nazi atrocities in Greece.

The event, held under the theme “Reading the history of the world through small names,” was marked by the recent publication of photographic documents from the execution—images that, as Koutsoumbas stressed, have deeply moved and shaken society.

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

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.
