Thousands of young people also chanted together ‘Freedom for Palestine’ and ‘The imperialists are redividing the world, drawing borders with the blood of the peoples’, sending a message of internationalist solidarity to all the people that are rising up and fighting for their freedom against capitalist barbarity.
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 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.
Although we will not be tempted to continue what we consider to be a fruitless confrontation, we feel obliged to respond to two slanders directed against the KKE once again.
"The appalling suicide attack on the Greek Orthodox church of Prophet Elias (Mar Elias), in Damascus, which resulted in 22 deaths and dozens of injuries, bears the "stamp" of the regime of jihadist terrorists, who rose in power in Syria after the intervention of the USA - Israel - Turkey.
"The direct involvement of the US and the attack with high-powered bombs against Iran is a step towards escalating the imperialist war not only in the Middle East, but across the world.
Communist Parties, Communist Youth Organizations and friends abroad who follow the developments in Greece and the activities of the KKE and the Communist Youth of Greece (KNE) are asking for information about the work of the communists in the labour and people’s movement. Recently, the university student elections took place in Greece. For the fourth consecutive year, the list supported by the youth of the KKE, KNE, took first place, leaving the youth of the right-wing government party in second place again.
The 16th of June 2025 marks the 80th anniversary since the death of the iconic Greek communist guerrilla Aris Velouchiotis.
A member of the Communist Party of Greece (KKE) and First Captain of the Greek People’s Liberation Army (ELAS) during World War Two, Velouchiotis has been a legendary personality of the Greek Resistance against the Axis occupation.
“Israel’s planned and targeted air and missile attack on Iran, resulting in the deaths of Iranian officials, nuclear scientists and hundreds of civilians, is fueling the flames of war in the Middle East and threatening the peoples of the wider region with disaster. The attack was carried out under the pretext of Iran’s nuclear programme, but its real aim is to impose the imperialist plans of Israel and the USA on the wider region.
Subject: Response to the slanderous attack of the “Appeal”
Dear comrades,
On 11 June 2025, SolidNet received an “Appeal” from Parties attempting yet another slanderous attack, initiated by the Communist Party of the Russian Federation (CPRF) and the Russian Communist Workers’ Party (RCWP), regarding an article by the International Relations Section of the CC of the KKE entitled “On the International Anti-Fascist Forum in Moscow”.
We condemn the decision of the government to criminalize the communist movement in the Czech Republic
We condemn the new anti-communist decision of the Fiala government and the Czech Parliament, which criminalizes ‘any form of support or promotion of the communist movement’ as part of the changes to the criminal code that were adopted.
More specifically, on Friday 13 June, political and cultural events, with the participation of the General Secretary of the Party, Dimitris Koutsoumbas, will be held in the city of Lamia, birthplace of Velouchiotis,
Abraham (Avraam) Benaroya was born to a Shephardic Jew family in 1886 in Bidin, in the then Principality of Bulgaria, a vassal state of the Ottoman Empire. He began studying at the Faculty of Law in the University of Belgrade, but didn't graduate; instead, he became a teacher in Plovdiv. Being a polyglot, Abraham was fluent in at least six languages, including Ladino, Greek, Bulgarian, Serbian, English and Turkish.
Mr President,
These days we are witnessing a new escalation in the genocide of the Palestinian people in Gaza by the Israeli state, which has so far caused over 61,000 casualties, of whom more than 28,000 are women and girls.

On Thursday 22 May, in light of the dramatic developments experienced by the Palestinian people due to the brutality of the Israeli state, Dimitris Koutsoumbas, the GS of the CC and President of the KKE Parliamentary Group, sent a letter to the leaders of the opposition parliamentary groups (excluding the fascists of the ‘Spartans’ party). Despite the different positions held by political parties, the letter was sent based on the unanimous decision of the Greek Parliament in 2015 to recognize the Palestinian state.
