The
firm opposition of the Communist Party of Greece to NATO's plans in the Balkan region and
the role of the imprialist alliance in the Macedonia name dispute,
was stated by Nikos Sofianos, member of the Political Bureau of the Party's Central Committee, during an interview on ERT1.
“The
negotiations that are currently taking place between Greece and the
neighboring country [FYROM] are taking place under the umbrella of
NATO and the Americans. These are the ones who accelerate the talks,
aiming at the accession of FYROM in NATO” said Sofianos.
He also added that
both the government and other cosmopolitans as well as the organizers
of the upcoming nationalist rally (which will take place on Sunday in
Athens) “do not disagree with FYROM's accession to NATO, the
alliance which is responsible for slaughtering the Balkans,
dissolving Yugoslavia, bombing Serbia, creating minorities and
utilizing irredentisms”.
