KKE leader reaffirms solidarity with the Palestinian people, calls government to cut ties with Israel

"It is unacceptable for the Greek government to support the genocide and starvation of the Palestinian people by supporting a war criminal along with its allies. It must stop now, immediately, and cease all cooperation with this murderous state. A free Palestinian state within the 1967 borders must be recognized, based on the unanimous decision of the Greek Parliament in 2015", Dimitris Koutsoumbas, General Secretary of the Communist Party of Greece (KKE), stated during a rally held on Sunday 25 August in Athens.

The two faces of Israel from a Marxist perspective

By Nikos Mottas 

The recent mass demonstrations held in Israel against the heinous plans of the Netanyahu Government to takeover Gaza remind us that societies aren't monolithic entities; they contain conflicting forces within them. 

Anyone with a fundamental perception of dialectics can understand the massive contradictions that exist in modern capitalist societies, including the Israeli one.

KKE: What should be the perspective of the anti-war and anti-imperialist movement?

Excerpt from an article published in Rizospastis, the organ of the CC of the KKE, on 2-3 August 2025, under the title “Aspects of the struggle within the movement against imperialist war and in solidarity with the Palestinian people”: 

Some argue that the war can be stopped or prevented from escalating. For example, Israel may back down under pressure from international solidarity or from actions such as boycotting Israeli products and companies.

KKE blasts Greek government's despicable attempt to suppress popular protests against Israel’s crimes

KKE MP C. Katsotis holding a photo of a malnourished child in Gaza.
The New Democracy government is escalating its attacks on and repression of popular protests denouncing Israeli crimes in Gaza and the West Bank. These protests express solidarity with the Palestinian people and demand an end to all support from the Greek government for the murderous state of Israel as well as an end to all relations with it (military, political and economic).


It has even gone so far as to activate the anti-racism law, which confirms the KKE’s warnings that, once voted in Parliament, it would ultimately turn against the people and their movement.

General Secretary of the Communist Party of Israel: "The two-state solution is the only possible solution"

Article by Adel Amer, General Secretary of the Communist Party of Israel (Maki), originally published in the Party's newspaper Zo Haderech on 20/7/2025:
 
Promote the two-state solution and the Jewish-Arab partnership

The brutal war of annihilation raging in Gaza raises many questions about the solution to the problem that is the basis for instability and many conflicts in the Middle East – namely, the Palestinian issue. But in light of the results of the war and the systematic destruction of more than 75% of the territory of the Gaza Strip, the path to resolving the conflict has become more difficult and complex.

The Man Who Humiliated Netanyahu: On the Political Persecution of Comrade Ayman Odeh in Israel

By Nikos Mottas

While committing genocide in Gaza, the far-right government of Benjamin Netanyahu is simultaneously waging another war. This time within Israel, against the "internal enemy" who condemns and exposes the vile, genocidal acts against the Palestinian people.

These “enemies from within”, who have not stopped denouncing Netanyahu's leadership since the beginning of the war, have been fighting for years in extremely difficult conditions, in favor of peace and against the occupation.

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.

European Communist Action: The peoples must condemn Israel’s warmongering

The ongoing aggression of the murderous Israeli state—particularly in Palestine—is now spreading to other countries in the region. We strongly condemn the Israeli attack on Iran, which also targeted civilians, and express our solidarity with the people of Iran.

This act of aggression by Israel cannot be seen in isolation. All of its imperialist allies—including the United States, NATO, and the European Union—bear responsibility, whether through direct or indirect support, ongoing military, trade, or political cooperation.

Israel: Solidarity with Hadash leader Ayman Odeh

Two weeks ago, Ayman Odeh, MP and head of the Parliamentary Group of Hadash (Democratic Front for Peace and Equality), was violently removed from the podium of Knesset for denouncing the genocide in Gaza. 

In a demonstration held in Haifa on May 31, Odeh sharply criticized the far-right Israeli government, claiming the country has become isolated internationally. “Israel has become a pariah state among the nations of the world, including in the West,” Odeh stated.
