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:

 

Communist Party of Britain: Working-class unity is the answer to the far-right surge

The “Unite the Kingdom” march in London on September 13 exposed the scale of the danger facing Britain. Over 100,000 were mobilised under the banner of Tommy Robinson — a convicted criminal and fascist demagogue — waving the Union Jack as cover for racism, division and hate. This was not a harmless “protest,” but the largest fascist mobilisation in Britain in a generation.

The Communist Party of Britain (CPB) has warned for years that such a moment was coming. In a series of statements and Morning Star editorials, the CPB described the event as the largest fascist mobilisation in a generation, claiming it reflects the way economic despair is being channelled into racist and nationalist sentiment.

Political speeches, discussions, and concerts continue throughout the country as part of the 51^st Festival of KNE -“Odigitis”. Dimitris Koutsoumbas, General Secretary of the CC of the Communist Party of Greece (KKE), attended the events of the 51^st Festival of KNE -“Odigitis” in Livadia, and made the following statement:

“We are in a very difficult phase as a people and as a country.

After three days of culture, politics, debate and music, the 49th Festa do Avante! concluded last Sunday at Quinta da Atalaia in Amora.

The Battle of Meligalas: Revolutionary Justice Against Collaboration and Fascism

 By Nikos Mottas

In the closing months of the Second World War, Greece was on the brink of liberation. Nazi German forces, facing defeat on all fronts, began withdrawing from the country. Yet in the Peloponnese and other regions, their presence was maintained through the actions of local collaborators: the Security Battalions (Tagmata Asfaleias). These battalions—composed of Greeks—had fought not against the occupiers but against their own people. Armed, trained, and supported by the Nazis, they were tasked with crushing the communist-led resistance.

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.

KKE's leader Koutsoumbas: "The truly new productive model is the workers' power and socialism"

In a speech yesterday, 11/9, at the 89th Thessaloniki International Fair, the General Secretary of the CC of the Communist Party of Greece (KKE) Dimitris Koutsoumbas, stressed that a truly new productive model is only possible through the radically different path of development proposed by the KKE.

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.

Mayor Stamelos (Archive Photo)

The mayor of Kaisariani, a municipality in east Athens, has been summoned by state authorities to apologize due to his defensive stance towards sanitation employees. 

More specifically, as 902 portal reports, mayor Ilias Stamelos and 20 members of the Kaisariani Municipal Council, have been called by the Decentralised Administration of Attica on the basis of "dereliction of duty". What was their crime? The fact that they didn't appeal a first instance decision taken by a court which vindicated five municipal workers concerning their right to employment. 

Kaja Kallas's rabid Anticommunism and Russophobia

By Nikos Mottas

Recently, on the occasion of the 80th anniversary of People's Republic of China's victory against Japan, the EU High Representative on Foreign Affairs, Kaja Kallas proceeded to a new provocative statement. During a speech, she said: “Russia turned to China and said: 'Russia and China fought in World War II, we won World War II, we defeated Nazism' and I thought: 'Okay, that's something new'. If you know history, it raises a lot of questions. Nowadays, people don't read much and don't remember history. It's clear that they buy these narratives”.

Communists of Serbia: The end is near 

For months now, the people's justified rebellion against the corrupt and criminalized government, embodied in Aleksandar Vučić and the SNS, has been going on. Of course, we should not forget his engaged servants - Ivica Dačić, Aleksandar Vulin and Milica Zavetnica. 

For a long time, the government responded to public protests with individual acts of violence - driving vehicles into the crowd, sporadic attacks on activists, etc. We are witnessing the beginning of a new phase in the government's reaction, which is reflected in the brutal and inappropriate use of force against the people who are demanding their basic democratic rights. 

What should we do on Fidel Castro's centenary?

By Sissi Abay Díaz*

On August 13, 2026, it will be a century since the birth of an indispensable man for the history of his country. Heir to the most genuine of revolutionary thought, promoter of socialist society and undisputedly responsible for a small Island, 90 miles from the United States, to have managed to build a society different from the stigmas established for the so-called Third World nations.

We will celebrate his life and main legacy: example. We will return to Fidel with poems, songs and tributes. We will fill public spaces and media with images and activities. But will it be enough? 

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.
