Venezuela communists condemn US military incursion, call for people's mobilization

The Communist Party of Venezuela (PCV) issued a statement strongly condemning recent U.S. military actions in the Caribbean, denouncing them as acts of aggression aimed at Venezuela and the wider Latin American and Caribbean region. The party warns that these operations, carried out under the guise of anti-drug efforts, threaten national sovereignty and regional stability, while also calling attention to Venezuela’s internal political and social crisis. 

 

The statement (here in Spanish) of the PCV reads:

 

Marxism-Leninism on Individual Terror: A Response to the Assassination of Charlie Kirk

By Nikos Mottas

The assassination of Charlie Kirk in Utah has been immediately seized upon by the bourgeois press and state as a national tragedy, a “political assassination” that must unite society against “radical left extremism.” 

Yet while the ruling class floods the airwaves with solemn denunciations of violence, it continues daily to unleash far greater violence upon the working class and oppressed peoples — through war, police repression, and the slow violence of exploitation.

Communist Workers’ Platform USA: Statement on the Assassination of Charlie Kirk

In a statement about the assassination of far-right political activist and influencer Charlie Kirk, the Central Committee of the Communist Workers’ Platform USA (CWPUSA) stresses out the following:

"Noted reactionary Charlie Kirk’s chicken came home to roost on 10 September 2025. Speaking at a university in Utah spewing the usual hateful, racist, and vile rhetoric he made into his career, Mr. Kirk was killed by a gunshot to the neck. The shooter is as of today, 11 September, still at large. Mr. Kirk devoted his one life on Earth as a loyal mouthpiece of the ruling class, spreading hate amongst the workers and people of this country and beyond.

How the Charlie Kirk Assassination Plays into Trump’s Hands

By Nathan Richardson* 

On September 10, 2025, Charlie Kirk was gunned down while speaking at Utah Valley University. A single bullet struck him in the neck, in front of thousands. 

The killing has been widely called a “political assassination.” It happened just as Kirk’s “American Comeback Tour” was gaining momentum among young people. Turning Point USA - the conservative youth-force he co-founded - was pulling in large crowds, influencing campus politics, and helping mobilize young voters in favor of Trump. This was no random tragedy. It was an event with perfect timing, high symbolic value - and it benefits Donald Trump & Co. here’s how. 

September 11th: A Tragedy Exploited by U.S Imperialism

By Nikos Mottas 

On September 11th, 2001, the United States experienced a shocking terrorist attack that killed nearly 3,000 people and wounded thousands more. For ordinary working people, it was a moment of profound grief, confusion, and fear. 

But for the ruling class of the United States, it became something else: a historic opportunity. The bourgeoisie, armed with state power and guided by the logic of imperialism, turned the tragedy into a justification for war, occupation, and repression.

Joint Statement of Communist and Workers' Parties: Stop the U.S military threat against Venezuela!

JOINT STATEMENT: 

STOP THE U.S. MILITARY THREAT AGAINST VENEZUELA

We, the undersigned Communist and Workers' Parties, express our condemnation of the current deployment of U.S. military forces in the Caribbean, on the orders of the Trump Administration, threatening Venezuela under the pretext of the fight against drug trafficking.

KKE: Using the “multi-polar world” to whitewash capitalism

Comment by the International Relations Section of the CC of the KKE 

The Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) summit meeting was used to foster new illusions among the peoples. Certain forces see imperialism merely as the “empire” of the USA and on this basis they salute the promotion of new emerging capitalist powers in global affairs, such as the emergence of new inter-state unions (BRICS, Shanghai Cooperation Organization, Collective Security Treaty Organization, ALBA etc.), which are formed by capitalist states, with an economic–political and military content.

Latin American Communist Parties denounce US imperialist aggression against Venezuela

Several Communist Parties from Latin America strongly condemn the escalation of aggression by the US Trump administration against Venezuela:

 

The Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Venezuela (PCV), through its member Neirlay Andrade, condemned on Monday 12 August both the recent interventionist threats by the United States government against Venezuela, as well as the intensification of repression against the popular movement and the revolutionary left in the country.

 

Which way out of Trump hell? Liberal, Dem-Soc, or Communist?

By Charles Andrews*

The working class knows who Donald Trump is.

Masked ICE goons rip people out of their workplace, school, and home. Police club demonstrators who shout against genocide in Gaza. High schools and colleges fire teachers who let students discuss the history of Zionism. Eight hundred employees of the weather service, NOAA, are fired; when disaster strikes, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) cannot dispatch enough staff to the flooded or burning land. 

The KKE denounces the escalation of US imperialist aggression against Venezuela

In a statement, the International Relations Section of the CC of the Communist Party of Greece (KKE) condemns the recent escalation of the US imperialist aggression against Venezuela:

"The KKE denounces the new escalation of imperialist aggression by the US government against Venezuela, by sending warships with thousands of marines near Venezuela, under the pretext of fighting drug cartels. 

KKE: The imperialist bargaining on Ukraine does not portend anything positive for the peoples

In a statement (here in Greek) regarding the negotiations between the US, EU-NATO, Ukraine and the Russian Federation, the Press Office of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Greece (KKE) stresses out:

“The live-streamed bargaining between those responsible for the war massacre in Ukraine does not portend anything positive for the people, nor does it focus on “peacemaking” and the “end of bloodshed”, as it is provocatively presented, but on the division of territories, “security guarantees” - that is, how the political-military relationship between NATO and Russian forces in Ukrainian territories will be settled - the businesses of large monopoly groups and arms packages.

Statement of the KKE on Trump-Putin Summit: The imperialist war in Ukraine continues and escalates

In a statement concerning the Trump-Putin Summit in Alaska, the Press Office of the CC of the Communist Party of Greece (KKE), stresses out the following:

“The Trump-Putin meeting in Alaska was part of the imperialist bargaining based not on the interests of the peoples, the Ukrainian and Russian people who are paying the price of the war, but on the interests of the US and Russian monopolies, the expansion of their business activity and the increase in their profitability.

European Communist Action: 80 years since the US imperialist crime in Hiroshima and Nagasaki

Statement by the European Communist Action on the 80th anniversary of the dropping of the atomic bomb in Hiroshima and Nagasaki:

The explosion of atomic bombs over Hiroshima and Nagasaki – crimes which should never be forgotten - demonstrated to the world the ruthless nature of U.S. imperialism and the terrible and devastating consequences of the use of nuclear weapons. The U.S. decision to drop atomic bombs on Hiroshima (6 August 1945) and Nagasaki (9 August 1945) were calculated demonstrations of imperialist power aimed not just at Japan but at the Soviet Union and the global communist movement. 

Capitalism is dying: More than 30% of young Americans view communism positively, survey reveals

A recent survey conducted the by the reactionary Cato Institute and YouGov provides a quite promising perspective for the U.S society. Despite decades of severe anti-communist propaganda in education and media, a significant number of young men and women in the States seem to hold positive views on the concepts of socialism-communism.  

 

According to the Cato/YouGov survey, 62 percent of Americans aged 18–29 say they hold a “favorable view” of socialism, while 34 percent say the same of communism. 

 

European Parliament Resolution whitewashes Syria's Jihadist regime

In a statement (here in Greek), the Europarliament Group of the Communist Party of Greece (KKE) denounces the recent resolution - jointly adopted by the European People's Party (EPP), Social Democrats (S&D), Liberals, the Far-right and Greens – regarding the situation in Syria. 

 

The Resolution, which was issued  on the occasion of the terrorist bomb attack at Mar Elias Greek Orthodox Church in Damascus, consists a “whitewash of the reactionary government of the Jihadists, who have been dressed with Euro-Atlantic costumes and “sat on the neck” of the Syrian people, following the long-standing interventions of USA-NATO-EU and the military assistance of Turkey and Israel, which also occupy Syrian territories”, the KKE statement reads and adds:

 

Socialist Rhetoric, Capitalist Reality: Why Mamdani’s Victory Won’t Transform the System

By Nathan Richardson*

The June 2025 Democratic primary in New York shocked many on the U.S. left. Zohran Mamdani, a self-proclaimed socialist and member of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), defeated former governor Andrew Cuomo to secure the party’s nomination for mayor. Supporters quickly declared the result a major breakthrough for the socialist movement. However, this development is less a victory than it is a reflection of a broader contradiction facing the U.S. left: the attempt to reconcile socialist rhetoric with participation in a party fundamentally loyal to capital.

The KKE condemns the latest escalation of aggression and blockade against Cuba by the US

Statement by the International Relations Section of the CC of the KKE

With a new despicable memorandum signed by US President Donald Trump, the US administration has further intensified its measures of barbaric imperialist blockade and efforts to undermine Cuba. This is a continuation of the same policy pursued by the first Trump administration and maintained in its entirety by the Biden administration. Their declared aim is to cause economic suffocation to the Cuban people and to support the actions of counterrevolutionary groups in overthrowing the achievements of the Cuban people and the Revolution itself.

The Mamdani Moment and the Crisis of the “Left”

On June 24, 2025, Zohran Mamdani won the Democratic primary for mayor of New York City. His defeat of the Democratic Party old guard Andrew Cuomo has been hailed as a victory for socialism in America. Social media has been flooded with celebration. DSA apparatchiks are gloating. The only real victory was for the illusion that the system can be reformed.

Mamdani is a gifted politician. He has spoken courageously on Palestine, organized tenants and workers into his voting base, and has roots in the popular sectors. However, he is still a part of the machinery of the Democratic Party: a party of landlords, war profiteers, billionaires, the ruling capitalist class. 

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.
