The Communist Party of Turkey on the bloodbath in Syria's Aleppo: "This is what you created, it's yours!"

In a statement (read here in Turkish), the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Turkey (TKP), stresses out:

The Farce Of the “Restoration of Democracy” in Venezuela

The absurdities used by the government to justify US imperialist intervention in Venezuela are endless. Government officials, without even blushing, claim that “anyone who disagrees with US actions is siding with the dictator Maduro”. 

 

Walking the same path as the representatives of the right-wing ruling party, New Democracy (ND), are figures from other bourgeois, social-democratic forces as well. For example, the former prime minister and former leader of the “left-wing” SYRIZA, Alexis Tsipras, in his statement on Venezuela, did not hesitate to adopt one of the pretexts of US intervention, that of “democracy”, remarking that it “is also being tested in Venezuela”.

 

Kazakhstan's President promises to... "end communism", attacks social rights

In a new anti-communist political statement this week, Kassym-Jomart Tokayev, President of Kazakhstan, declared a sweeping overhaul of the country’s social benefits system and openly denounced the existence of broad, publicly funded social provisions as tantamount to... “victorious communism” that must end. 

In a televised address, Tokayev claimed that Kazakhstan’s free healthcare, wide range of benefits, and state social spending have provoked envy among neighboring states and led to “massive parasitism” by recipients of state support.

Joint Statement by Communist and Workers’ Parties: Down with the Imperialist boot in Venezuela and Latin America!

Joint Statement by Communist and Workers’ Parties

Down with the Imperialist boot in Venezuela and Latin America!

The undersigned Communist and Workers’ Parties strongly condemn the criminal bombings carried out by the United States against the city of Caracas and other areas of Venezuela in the early hours of 3 January.

15 Times Fidel Castro Blasted U.S Imperialism

By Nikos Mottas 

When U.S President Donald Trump openly threatens Cuba and Latin America—reviving the language of siege, punishment, and imperial entitlement—he is not improvising. He is speaking the native tongue of U.S. imperialism. What appears today as vulgar bravado is, in fact, the unfiltered expression of a system that has always treated the region as a backyard, its peoples as expendable, and sovereignty as a privilege granted only to obedient regimes.

U.S. intervention in Venezuela: A link in the chain of rivalries for primacy in the global imperialist system

Article published in "Rizospastis", Organ of the CC of the KKE, 5 January 2026: 

The U.S. intervention in Venezuela constitutes the culmination of a months-long escalation of U.S. aggression against the country and, more broadly, across the entire “theatre” of Latin and Central America.

The intensifying U.S.–China rivalry for primacy within the international imperialist system, the strategic importance of Latin America as a trade corridor and repository of critical raw materials, as well as control over Venezuela as a country endowed with vast natural resources, are the real causes of the intervention—behind the pretexts of “combating drug trafficking” and “restoring democracy.”

Donald Trump, Imperialism’s Gangster-in-Chief

By Nikos Mottas

President Donald Trump did not “go too far” in Venezuela. He acted exactly as the system that produced him demands. 

Acting on the crude but deeply rooted imperialist doctrine that power itself is legitimacy, he authorized a military assault and proclaimed the “arrest” of Venezuela’s president — an act that, stripped of euphemisms, amounts to the kidnapping of a sitting head of state.

KKE: Mitsotakis’ statement on the US intervention in Venezuela is cynical, vile, and disgraceful

In a statement concerning the despicable comment of the Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis' concerning the U.S attack in Venezuela, the Press Office of the CC of the Communist Party of Greece (KKE), stresses out the following:

"Mitsotakis’ statement on the imperialist intervention of the United States in Venezuela is a cynical, vile, and disgraceful intervention for the Greek people, one that surpasses even Trump’s own statements.
