Koutsoumbas reaffirmed the solidarity of Greek communists towards the Venezuelan people who experience capitalist exploitation and crisis and who are the only ones who have the right to determine their own fate.
The KKE demands from the Greek government to take a clear stance on the issue, to recognize the elected president Nicolas Maduro and to reject the plans for the imposition by the imperialists of a "transitional president"-puppet. The leader of the Communist Party also underlined that Tsipras' government must, clearly and straightforwardly, denounce the intervention of the USA and EU in Venezuela.
It must be noted that, from the very beginning of the US-backed coup attempt, the Communist Party of Greece had publicly expressed its full solidarity and support to the government and the people of Venezuela.
