The GS of the CC of the KKE, among other things, referred in detail to the two imperialist wars in the Middle East and Ukraine and denounced the involvement of the New Democracy government alongside the USA, NATO and the EU.
Here we go again. Another U.S Presidential Election and new false dilemmas are presented before the American people. Following a fierce pre-election period in a polarized political environment, U.S voters are called to choose between the two contestants: Kamala Harris or Donald Trump?
The battle between Harris and Trump, like all previous electoral battles between presidential candidates, isn't a personal one. It's purely political. Trump and Harris represent sectors of the big capital and their fight reflects the aggravation of the intra-bourgeois competition in the United States. It is a competition that is taking place in a period of significant changes within the global imperialist system itself, when the U.S monopoly capital struggles to maintain its primacy against the rapidly growing economic influence of China.
Trump is countering the Democratic Party in the presidential race by accusing Marxists of being guilty of all the troubles in America. When the bourgeois state fails to manage domestic issues it is always convenient to find an enemy and accuse it of all the sins. Moreover, Trump is unable to come up with any constructive strategy to fight Kamala Harris, so he is bringing back the age-old threat of communism as a political tool.
On November 5, elections are held for the President of the United States. We have repeatedly heard the proposals of both candidates of the two main bourgeois parties: Donald Trump of the Republicans and Kamala Harris of the Democrats.
There is no room for deception, they have made their intentions clear and loud, and what they will do if they are victorious. Both Trump and Harris have committed themselves as representatives of the monopolies.
Just days before the Republican National Convention in the United States of America, the now Republican presidential candidate, Donald J. Trump, was the victim of an attempted assassination by a 20-year-old young man, identified as Thomas Matthew Crooks, originally from Pennsylvania and a Republican supporter; in addition, there was one fatality and 2 people injured due to a series of missed shots.
On the evening of July 13, a gunman opened fire at a Trump rally in Pennsylvania. The gunman grazed Trump’s ear, leaving him bloodied, with one attendee dead and two others wounded. These individual acts of adventurism have proven throughout history to be a dead-end which can only harm real efforts to gather the movement for the socialist revolution. In the US, many examples exist of failed or successful assassination attempts.
In a comment issued on Monday, the Press Office of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Greece (KKE) stresses out the following:
Recently the CPUSA published a document Forward Together (now posted at cpusa.org) which was approved by the CPUSA National Committee on January 27 to frame the discussion leading up to the Party’s June 2024 convention in Chicago.
The national convention of a Communist Party is important. A convention is the leading body of the Party, and its decisions govern the political direction of the Party in the four years ahead.
More specifically, Trump said he would use “Section 212 (f) of the Immigration and Nationality Act” to “order my government to deny entry to all communists and all Marxists.”
