KKE: Von der Leyen’s EU agenda brings militarization, austerity and new burdens for the people

The European Parliamentary Group of the Communist Party of Greece (KKE) strongly criticized European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen’s State of the Union address, arguing that the priorities she outlined are “alien to the concerns and opposed to the interests of the peoples of Europe.”

According to the KKE, the European Union is seeking to strengthen the position of its monopolies amid intensifying competition with the United States and China for supremacy in the global capitalist economy. 

 

KKE strongly condemns Israel's settlement plans in the occupied West Bank

In a statement, the International Relations Section of the CC of the Communist Party of Greece (KKE) condemns the settlement plans of the state of Israel in the occupied territories of West Bank. 

“At a time when the ruthless occupying state of Israel, backed by the US and the EU, is continuing its deadly attacks and threats in the Gaza Strip, Lebanon, Syria and the broader region, and as the US - Israel war against Iran is escalating, a highly dangerous series of settlement activities in the Palestinian West Bank is being resumed.

KKE: The 200 communist heroes of Kaisariani shatter the EU’s historical fraud of equating communism with fascism

Once again, on 23 August, the European Union rolls out its anti-communist falsification of history, attempting the obscene equation of communism — the force that stood at the forefront of the struggle against fascism — with the Nazi monster itself. Yet history is stubborn, and the blood of those who fought and died against fascism cannot be erased by EU resolutions and manufactured “days of remembrance.”

Have you no shame? The European Parliament passes despicable anti-Cuba resolution

The European Parliament has once again placed itself openly on the side of U.S. imperialist pressure against socialist Cuba, approving a hostile resolution that demands “profound economic and political change” (!!) on the island, calls for new EU sanctions and threatens the suspension of the EU-Cuba Political Dialogue and Cooperation Agreement.

The resolution was approved by a narrow majority, with 283 votes in favour, 199 against and 85 abstentions, following an intense campaign of anti-Cuban propaganda and pressure inside the European Parliament (Check HERE what every MEP voted)

KKE: The EU is complicit in the U.S-Israel's dirty war against Iran and Lebanon

Intervening in the debate on the Middle East held in the plenary session of the European Parliament in Strasbourg following the announcement of the preliminary U.S.-Iran agreement, the Communist Party of Greece (KKE) European Parliamentary Group delivered a statement condemning the EU's role in the region.

KKE MEP Lefteris Nikolaou-Alavanos stressed the following:

KKE MEPs denounce provocation by EU Commission

It demands the withdrawal of the persistent questions of historical truth raised by the sacrifice of the 200 communist heroes of Kaisariani 

The Commission is provocatively demanding the withdrawal of the Question submitted by the KKE’s MEPs. Based on the striking photographic evidence of the 200 communists who stood up face to face with the Nazi monster, the Question exposes the unhistorical nature of the EU’s ideology, which equates communism with the monster of fascism, as well as its undermining and deliberate stance towards the still-unfulfilled demand that German war reparations be paid for the Nazi atrocities in Greece.

How the European Parliament promotes anti-Cuban propaganda by applying double standards

A revealing case of “double standards” by the European Parliament has come to light regarding its stance toward socialist Cuba.

On 13 January 2026, the parliamentary group of the Communist Party of Greece (KKE) scheduled an exhibition dedicated to the internationalist contribution of Cuban doctors, focusing on the Henry Reeve medical brigades and their role in supporting peoples affected by pandemics and natural disasters. The exhibition was rejected by the Parliament’s authorities.

Political Bureau of the CC of the KKE: No sacrifices for the imperialists’ wars – Greece out of the war

Statement by the Political Bureau of the CC of the Communist Party of Greece (KKE) 

No sacrifices for the imperialists’ wars – Greece out of the war

1. The KKE calls on the working class, the people and the youth to remain vigilant and to take militant action. Let the alarm be sounded everywhere. Let opposition to the imperialist war and to our country’s dangerous involvement in it be expressed and strengthened. Our country must not become a target for reprisals. The people and their children must not be made to bear the consequences of war. 

Four Years Under Death’s Ravenous Gaze

The conflict in Eastern Ukraine did not come as a surprise to the KKE. It marked the ignition of a confrontation that had long been in the making — methodically prepared in the pressure cooker of clashing powerful interests — and it is a direct consequence of the capitalist restoration that led to the dissolution of the Soviet Union. It is worth recalling that at the time, the entire spectrum of Greece’s political establishment, from the far right to the so-called “renewed Left” — except the KKE — was proclaiming that “the avenues of peace and prosperity” were opening up for the peoples.

Greenland: A "Northern Front" of Inter-Imperialist Rivalry

By Nikos Mottas 

The developments surrounding Greenland should not be treated as a diplomatic anomaly or as the product of individual political choices. 

They are a concentrated expression of the contemporary phase of imperialism, in which the sharpening competition among capitalist powers drags strategic regions and smaller peoples into conflicts not of their own making. 

KKE warns in the European Parliament: Unacceptable U.S. threats over Greenland; EU and NATO complicit

In a statement (here in Greek) concerning the visit of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in Greece and his meeting with Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis on Sunday 16 November, the Press Office of the CC of the Communist Party of Greece (KKE) stresses out: 

"The American dealers of the outrageously expensive LNG had barely left Greece when the buyer arrived — none other than the head of the reactionary and corrupt regime of Ukraine who, together with the USA–NATO–EU, has dragged his own people into the bloodbath with Russia that has lasted almost four years.
