Communist Youth of Bolivia: On the structural crisis and escalation of violence in Bolivia

COMMUNIST YOUTH OF BOLIVIA

STATEMENT ON THE STRUCTURAL CRISIS AND ESCALATION OF VIOLENCE IN BOLIVIA

Bolivia is experiencing a deep economic, political, and social crisis, currently reflected in the shortage of food, fuel, and imported products; the inflationary escalation; the devaluation of the Bolivian currency (boliviano); and a rise in social conflicts. This situation, rooted in the structural dependence on rentier capitalism and the crisis of the extractivist model, has worsened due to misguided government measures, such as the liberalization of meat and other food exportations.

Harry Pollitt: The Influence of Socialist Construction in the USSR on Workers in Capitalist Countries

By Harry Pollitt

THE October Revolution in Russia in 1917 sent an electric thrill through the war-weary workers of the world. 

In our lifetime, the taunt of the capitalists, such as Churchill, that the workers are “not fit to govern” has been hurled back at them with a rebound that day by day is having its revolutionizing effect all over the world.

The KKE and its revolutionary action are a thorn in the side of all kinds of anti-communists

Comment by the International Relations Section of the CC of the KKE:

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.

KKE responds to the slanders of RCWP: Let's talk facts

On 24 June 2025, the RCWP sent yet another article, which was published on SolidNet entitled “Swearing and labels are not arguments”, characterized by anti-KKE hatred, lies and slander in an attempt to justify the unjustifiable.

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.

Joint Statement of Communist and Workers’ Parties on the US attack on Iran

Joint Statement of Communist and Workers’ Parties

The struggle of the people against imperialism must be strengthened!

The Communist and Workers’ Parties signing this Joint Statement strongly condemn the US attack on Iran, which escalates the military offensive already launched by Israel.

After Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria and the ongoing genocide in Palestine, the USA and its allies are now shedding the blood of yet another country in the Middle East. This imperialist aggression is plunging people into war across a wider region and threatening to destroy humanity as a whole.

Avishai Ehrlich: Stop the War in Gaza and Iran, For a Nuclear-free Middle East

By Avishai Ehrlich*

The main military activity and focus of Israel and the world shifted from Gaza to Iran on June 12. Gaza has gone from being a primary theater to a secondary one. 

While Israel continues to destroy and kill in Gaza systematically, Israelis are even less interested in it. The war in Iran shifted global and domestic priorities, but the destruction of Gaza, the genocide unfolding there, and the bleeding Palestinian issue remain the heart of the darkness.
