The Communist Party of Mexico (PCM) is stepping up its political and electoral intervention with an ambitious objective: to contest the presidency in 2030 and strengthen an independent communist alternative to both the governing Morena and the traditional parties of capital.

The Mexican daily El Universal spotlighted the Party in a report headlined: “We want to win the presidency in 2030: Communist Party of Mexico is alive and seeks permanent power”. The report highlights the PCM’s determination to expand its national presence and intervene more decisively in Mexico’s political life.

Analysis of the insurrectionary process in Bolivia: Seigniorial paradox, power bloc, and the potency of the masses

By Camila Azeñas Uzquiano*

In April of 2026, the government of Rodrigo Paz Pereira —inaugurated on November 8, 2025— promulgated Law 1720, which sought to dismantle the constitutional protection of small peasant property in order to favor extractivist large landholdings (latifundio). That law was the spark of an insurrectionary process that, since then, has triggered the deployment of road blockades, an indigenous march from Pando to La Paz, a massive cabildo (popular assembly) in El Alto that shattered any pretense of dialogue with the Executive, and a women's hunger strike picket. 

Communist Party of Venezuela denounces Rodríguez government’s submission to U.S. Imperialism

Statement by the Communist Party of Venezuela on U.S. Air Military Maneuvers over Caracas and the Deepening of Imperialist Tutelage:

"The Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Venezuela (PCV), elected at its 16th National Congress (November 2022), categorically rejects the U.S. military air maneuvers scheduled to take place over Caracas on Saturday, May 23.

These military operations represent a dangerous escalation of imperialist interference in Venezuela and a direct affront to national sovereignty. 

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: 

 

Cuba responds firmly to U.S destabilization attempts: Morón vandalism denounced by revolutionary forces

The recent events in Morón have once again exposed the real dynamics at play in Cuba: a people enduring material hardship under siege, and a handful of disruptive elements attempting to turn those hardships into political destabilization.

In the early hours of March 14, a group of individuals carried out acts of vandalism against the local headquarters of the Communist Party, setting fire to property and attempting to manufacture an image of generalized unrest. 

 

Why we should defend Cuba at all costs

By Nikos Mottas

The recent escalation of vicious threats and coercive measures against Cuba by the Trump administration marks a new phase in a policy that is neither accidental nor episodic.

 The tightening of sanctions, the targeting of fuel supplies, the intensification of financial restrictions, and the open rhetoric of intimidation together constitute a deliberate sharpening of economic warfare against the Cuban people. 

The mythomaniac Marco Rubio

Marco Rubio, an American of Cuban descent and Secretary of State of the United States, has been characterized throughout his political career by a lack of ethics, corruption scandals, extreme mythomania, far-right positions, and his unhealthy obsession with overthrowing progressive and sovereign nations in Latin America, mainly Cuba, Venezuela, and Nicaragua, as well as the current governments of Brazil, Colombia, and Mexico.

 

The Farce Of the “Restoration of Democracy” in Venezuela

The absurdities used by the government to justify US imperialist intervention in Venezuela are endless. Government officials, without even blushing, claim that “anyone who disagrees with US actions is siding with the dictator Maduro”. 

 

Walking the same path as the representatives of the right-wing ruling party, New Democracy (ND), are figures from other bourgeois, social-democratic forces as well. For example, the former prime minister and former leader of the “left-wing” SYRIZA, Alexis Tsipras, in his statement on Venezuela, did not hesitate to adopt one of the pretexts of US intervention, that of “democracy”, remarking that it “is also being tested in Venezuela”.

 

Joint Statement by Communist and Workers’ Parties: Down with the Imperialist boot in Venezuela and Latin America!

Joint Statement by Communist and Workers’ Parties

Down with the Imperialist boot in Venezuela and Latin America!

The undersigned Communist and Workers’ Parties strongly condemn the criminal bombings carried out by the United States against the city of Caracas and other areas of Venezuela in the early hours of 3 January. This military imperialist attack constitutes a serious violation of the sovereignty of an independent state and is directed against the interests of the people of Venezuela and other peoples of the region. 

U.S. intervention in Venezuela: A link in the chain of rivalries for primacy in the global imperialist system

Article published in "Rizospastis", Organ of the CC of the KKE, 5 January 2026: 

The U.S. intervention in Venezuela constitutes the culmination of a months-long escalation of U.S. aggression against the country and, more broadly, across the entire “theatre” of Latin and Central America.

The intensifying U.S.–China rivalry for primacy within the international imperialist system, the strategic importance of Latin America as a trade corridor and repository of critical raw materials, as well as control over Venezuela as a country endowed with vast natural resources, are the real causes of the intervention—behind the pretexts of “combating drug trafficking” and “restoring democracy.”

Donald Trump, Imperialism’s Gangster-in-Chief

By Nikos Mottas

President Donald Trump did not “go too far” in Venezuela. He acted exactly as the system that produced him demands. 

Acting on the crude but deeply rooted imperialist doctrine that power itself is legitimacy, he authorized a military assault and proclaimed the “arrest” of Venezuela’s president — an act that, stripped of euphemisms, amounts to the kidnapping of a sitting head of state.

Communist Parties from the US, Mexico and Canada denounce Trump's imperialist attack on Venezuela

Communist Parties from North America, including the United States, Canada and Mexico, have condemned the military attack of the U.S against Venezuela and the kidnapping of the country's President, Nicolas Maduro:

Communist Workers' Platform USA (CWPUSA)  

"In the early hours of 3 January, the United States escalated its aggression against Venezuela through bombings in Caracas and other cities and towns. This escalation is the culmination of years of political and economic warfare to strangle Venezuelan workers and people.

URGENT! US launches military strikes in Caracas: Statement by the Communist Party of Venezuela

The Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Venezuela (elected by the 16th National Congress, November 2022) denounces before the country and the international community that, since the early hours of January 3, the city of Caracas and other areas of the central region of the country have been subjected to bombardments carried out by military forces of the United States of America.

In a statement, the 18th Plenary Session of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Venezuela (PCV), held in Caracas on 21 December  2025, stresses out:

As 2025 draws to a close, a year marked by the worsening of the national crisis and the dangerous escalation of imperialist aggression, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Venezuela (elected at the 16th National Congress in November 2022) addresses the working class, the Venezuelan people—both within and beyond our borders—and the revolutionary and democratic forces of the world to warn of the magnitude of the threats to our sovereignty and to reaffirm a principled position in the face of the projects that today dispute the destiny of the country.

When the Left manages capitalism, the far right takes power: Lessons from Latin America

By Nikos Mottas 

Chile’s presidential election marks a clear political reversal. José Antonio Kast, a figure of the hard right, has been elected president, bringing the far right back to the country’s leadership just three years after the centre-left government of Gabriel Boric took office. 

The result is not simply a conservative swing; it reflects a deeper political disappointment and a growing sense that the previous cycle of “progressive” governance failed to deliver real change.

Oscar Figuera: A political proposal is needed that rejects foreign intervention and Maduro’s continuity

The General Secretary of the Communist Party of Venezuela (PCV) Oscar Figuera argues that a political option different from those led by Nicolás Maduro, on the one hand, and María Corina Machado, on the other, must be built to give the country possibilities for development with respect for its sovereignty.

As a member of the Communist Party of Venezuela (PCV), he says that respect for human, political, and social rights should not be sacrificed in the name of defending national sovereignty.

Communist Parties of Venezuela and Ecuador expose the "World Antiimperialist Platform’s" opportunism

In early December 2025, two significant communiqués — one from the Communist Party of Venezuela (PCV) and the other from the Communist Party of Ecuador (PCE) — drew a clear political line across the international communist movement. 

Both parties, united by shared ideological principles, issued sharp warnings about the so-called “World Anti-Imperialist Platform” (WAP), which they describe not as a vehicle for proletarian internationalism but as a reformist and openly anti-communist apparatus designed to align workers’ parties with the interests of one capitalist bloc against another.

The Communist Party of Venezuela on U.S imperialist aggression and the national crisis

In a statement (read here in Spanish), the 17th Plenum of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Venezuela (PCV) held in Caracas on 15-16 November, stresses out the following: 

The Central Committee of the Communist Party of Venezuela (PCV) — elected at the 16th National Congress held in November 2022 — alerts the peoples of the world to the dangerous military escalation that U.S. imperialism is developing in the waters of the Caribbean and the eastern Pacific, through an unprecedented deployment not seen in decades. 

Communist Party of Greece condemns scenarios of US imperialist intervention in Venezuela and expresses internationalist solidarity with the Venezuelan people

PRESS OFFICE OF THE CENTRAL COMMITTEE OF THE COMMUNIST PARTY OF GREECE

In a statement on the threats of US imperialist intervention in Venezuela, the Press Office of the Central Committee of the KKE reports the following:

“The statements by US Secretary of War Pete Hegseth, who announced the launch of a military operation in the Caribbean called Southern Spear, as well as the arrival of the largest US aircraft carrier, the USS Gerald R. Ford, in the region, constitute a sharp escalation of imperialist aggression against Venezuela and other peoples in the region. The fight against drug trafficking is yet another flimsy pretext.
