Dangerous Complacency at a Time When “Settlements” Are Being Advanced at the Expense of the Peoples

 

Cuba Sends Doctors. The USA Sends Bombs

By Nikos Mottas 

There are moments when history reduces itself to a single, unavoidable contrast. Today is one of them. As renewed threats and economic aggression once again emanate from Washington under Donald Trump, an old truth regains its sharpness: 

Cuba sends doctors. The United States sends bombs.

This is not a slogan invented for effect. It is a reflection of two opposing social systems, two different priorities, two irreconcilable visions of what a society should produce—and for whom.

More than 100 Communist and Workers' Parties say: Stop the escalation of aggression against Cuba!

KKE calls on Mitsotakis government to reject Trump’s “Peace Council” invitation

In a statement (here in Greek) regarding the invitation extended by Trump to the Greek government to participate in the so-called “Board of Peace” the Press Office of the Central Committee of the KKE stresses the following:

“The Greek government must, without hesitation, reject Trump’s invitation to the upcoming meeting of the so-called “Board of Peace”, whose aim is to implement the plan to turn Gaza into a US–Israeli protectorate and an “El Dorado”  for investments, in which there will be no place for the homeland of the long-suffering Palestinian people.

Report of the CC of the KKE to the 22nd Congress: On the International Communist Movement

The International Communist Movement is facing a chronic and profound ideological, political, and organizational crisis. A significant number of Communist Parties that resisted ideological mutation and remained steadfast during the counter-revolution and faithful to Marxism-Leninism and proletarian internationalism, have been unable to draw conclusions regarding the programmatic causes of the counter-revolutionary overthrows, to study both their history and the history of the communist movement, or to formulate their strategy accordingly — a strategy that reflects the contemporary needs of the class struggle, the struggle for socialist revolution, the overthrow of capitalism, and the construction of socialism–communism.  

There Is One Marxism: Against “Western”, “Eastern” and “Third-World” Marxism

On False “Anti-Imperialism,” Campism, and the Abandonment of Class Analysis 

By Nikos Mottas

The recurrent attempt to divide Marxism into “Western,” “Eastern,” “Third-World,” or other geographically marked variants reflects a deeper theoretical retreat from Marxism as a scientific worldview and a revolutionary method. Such distinctions implicitly transform Marxism from a universal theory of capitalist society and class struggle into a set of culturally conditioned perspectives, shaped primarily by geography rather than by objective social relations. From a Marxist-Leninist standpoint, this approach is fundamentally mistaken. Marxism is one, not because it ignores historical and national specificity, but because it rests on objective laws of social development that operate globally wherever capitalism exists.

Communist Parties from across the world condemn U.S aggression and threats against Cuba

Communist and Worker's Parties from all over the world strongly condemn and denounce the shameful threats of the Trump administration towards Cuba as well as the tightening of the U.S. inhumane and genocidal blockade against the Island of the Revolution. Cuba Is Not Alone! Cuba No Está Sola!

Karl Marx statue unveiled in Chennai, India

On 6 February 2026, a life-size statue of Karl Marx was unveiled in Chennai, at the Connemara Public Library–State Museum complex, by Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M. K. Stalin. The inauguration, organised by the state government, was accompanied by an exhibition on Marx’s life and ideas, underlining the explicitly ideological character of the event. 

The erection of Marx’s statue in a major Indian metropolis is more than a ceremonial gesture. 

 

Hands Off the Communists of Pakistan!

15 dead migrants: A crime bearing the stamp of the EU and the bourgeois governments of Greece and Turkey

The Epstein scandal is an offspring of capitalism

By Nikos Mottas 

The much-publicized Epstein scandal is persistently described as a “dark anomaly,” a moral rupture inside an otherwise functioning system. This description is false. What it conceals is more important than what it reveals. The affair did not expose a deviation from capitalism but one of its normal, if usually less visible, operations. By treating Epstein as an exception, bourgeois discourse shields the system that made him possible.

In a statement regarding the new provocative threats of the U.S administration against Cuba, the MEPs of the Communist Party of Greece (KKE) stress out:

"Having become emboldened after its imperialist intervention in Venezuela, the Trump administration is now intensifying its aggression against Cuba, with the ridiculous argument that it is "facing aggressive actions." In this context, the US is considering imposing tariffs and sanctions on countries that supply Cuba with oil and other vital commodities, as well as a "naval blockade" of the Island of Revolution.

Por qué debemos defender a Cuba a toda costa

Por Nikos Mottas 

La reciente escalada de amenazas brutales y medidas coercitivas contra Cuba por parte de la administración Trump marca una nueva fase de una política que no es ni accidental ni episódica.

El endurecimiento de las sanciones, el ataque a los suministros de combustible, la intensificación de las restricciones financieras y la retórica abierta de intimidación constituyen en conjunto una agudización deliberada de la guerra económica contra el pueblo cubano.

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.
