In a statement issued today, the All-Workers Militant Front (PAME) denounces the policy of New Democracy (ND) government which strengthens Greece's ties with Israel, refering to the upcoming visit of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to Athens on January 2nd. Netanyahu visit's main purpose is for the signing of the agreement on the East Med pipeline.
More specifically the PAME statement points out:
“For the profits of the big energy monopolies that have bloodshed the whole of the Middle East, the ND government continues its “friendship” policy with the state of Israel that is killing the Palestinian people daily, stealing Palestinian land with settlements, killing and imprisoning even small children.
The Greek people have nothing positive to gain from monopoly competitions. The “stability” of the Eastern Mediterranean, the government proclaims, are watered with the blood of Palestinian children.
PAME stands firmly on the side of the struggling Palestinian people to gain its own independent state at the border of ’67 with its capital Jerusalem.
We demand
Immediate implementation of the 2015 decision of the Greek Parliament to recognize the Palestinian state.
End Greece’s political, economic and military cooperation with Israel”.
