Two very interesting panels of discussion will be hosted at the Left Forum which will take place on May 20-22 in New York. The panels are sponsored by the website Marxism-Leninism Today and will include speakers from the Communist Party of Greece (KKE).
1. One
panel is: "Imperialists
Collide: War and Refugees in the Eastern Mediterranean and the
Middle East".
The
Eastern Mediterranean and the Middle East are the focal point of
imperialist aggression and the consequent enormous, tragic refugee
crisis. The panel will discuss the causes of the conflicts, the
social and national forces engaged in the wars, and the prospects
for peace and justice in the region from the perspective of the
Greek Communist Party (KKE).
The
panel will discuss developments in the region spurred by the drive to
control markets, natural resources, transportation routes, and to
increase monopoly profits. Also, the panelists will address the role
of NATO, the US, the EU, in the competition with Russia and
China in the region. The role of Israel, the role of the SYRIZA-ANEL
government, the prospects for a general war, and the projection of a
class-based, internationalist, and socialist solution will also be on
the panel's agenda.
