This was followed by three agreements (memoranda) with the EU for the “salvation” of the Greek economy, accompanied by thousands of anti-people laws at the expense of the working class and the popular strata.

More specifically, the KKE statement (here in Greek) reads:
"With the EU Commission being the initiator of a debate-parade of anti-communists in the plenary of the European Parliament in Strasbourg, the EU is working on another anti-communist and unhistorical 'day of remembrance' under the name of 'European Day of Righteous'.
Koutsoumbas was commenting on the Greek prime minister's meeting with his Israeli counterpart, Benjamin Netanyahu, in Israel on Sunday.
"The KKE denounces the decision of the Turkish state and AKP government to arrest the mayor of Istanbul, Ekrem Imamoglu, and to remove him from his office, the suppression of the demonstrations and the mass arrests of demonstrators, including members of the Communist Party (TKP) and the Communist Youth of Turkey, as well as journalists.
“The drumbeats about a ceasefire in the 3-year imperialist war in Ukraine, between the US, NATO, EU and capitalist Russia, cannot overshadow the real facts and the painful reality of the continuation of the war that tortures the peoples of Ukraine and Russia, as well as the dangers for other peoples.
Two mass graves containing the remains of executed communists from the 1946-49 Civil War have been discovered in Thessaloniki, Greece’s second largest city.
The graves were uncovered during redevelopment work close to the national resistance memorial, thus increasing the total of such sites in the area to six. The location of the graves indicates that it was likely used for the execution of political prisoners due to its proximity to the notorious Yedi Kule prison.
On 11 March 2025, the Communist Youth of Greece (KNE) held a picket outside the Embassy of Ukraine in Athens, while a delegation of the KKE and KNE affixed a letter of protest to its door.
With this protest, the KKE and KNE condemned the prolonged political persecution, arrest and torture of Mikhail and Alexander Kononovich, members of the Ukrainian Communist Youth League (Komsomol).
"The KKE condemns the heinous crimes in Syria by the jihadist regime, which was imposed with the intervention of the states of Turkey and Israel and with the support of the US and the EU.
“One of the things you told the people to justify our country’s involvement in the war in Ukraine in the role of a NATO stooge was that we are supposedly on the 'right side of history'. Among other things, this involvement has hit the pockets of our people, especially due to high energy bills.
— Greek newspapers Dimokratia and Ta Nea claimed that US President Donald Trump has decided to close the alleged US base in Alexandroupoli, Greece. However, US officials issued a statement on the allegations, saying that “the US does not have a base in Alexandroupoli, it is a Greek facility to which the US has access under the Mutual Defense Cooperation Treaty.” What is your assessment of these discussions?

A production of Russian writer, poet and historian Dmitry Mizgulin and directed by Andrei Nikishin, the documentary (roughly translated from Greek as "Unbending Nikos") includes rare archival material and testimonies from Zachariadis' lifelong friend and comrade Alexis Parnis.
"The outcome of the German elections was influenced by two crucial and mutually reinforcing factors: on the one hand, the intensification of international antagonisms that permeate the ruling class of Germany, fueling bourgeois forces that appear as ''Eurosceptics''; on the other hand, the disapproval of the government of the Social Democrats and Greens, who have burdened the German people with the burdens of recession and war involvement.
The explosives were in fact destined for the Hellenic Defence Systems factory for the production of 155 mm artillery shells to be sent to the imperialist war in Ukraine as part of our country’s involvement, under the responsibility of the government, in support of the Zelenskiy regime.
