On March 5, 1931, under the most adverse
conditions of persecution and political extermination, the first
communist branch was formed in Venezuela. Since then, 93 years of
consistent struggle for the definitive emancipation of the working class
from the yoke of capital have passed.
The efforts and contributions of the
Communist Party of Venezuela (PCV) to the organization of the working
people of the city and the countryside for the conquest of political,
social and labor rights, constitute deeds of ample recognition that no
power can erase from history or from the memory of our people. Nor can
the firm and intransigent struggle against imperialism of the Venezuelan
communists be hidden.
