In a joint event that took place at Morata de Tajuña, in the community of Madrid, the Communist Party of the Peoples of Spain (PCPE) and the Communist Party of Greece (KKE) paid tribute to the heroic International Bridages (Brigadas Internacionales) which fought against the fascists during the Spanish Civil War.
The event took place on November 10th at the memorial dedicated to the men and women of the International Brigades, where representatives of the two parties laid wreaths in memory of the heroic fighters.
The General Secretary of the PCPE Ástor García attended the event, while the KKE was represented by the member of the Political Bureau Giorgos Marinos.
It must be noted that the Battle of Jarama had been the "baptism of fire" for thousands of fighters from all over the world, including hundreds of Greek brigadistas who fought along their Spanish comrades in arms.
