On 19th June in an interview with the radio station “Real FM”, Dimitris Koutsoumbas,
General Secretary of the CC of the KKE, referred to the results of the
recent European elections held in Greece and the rest of the EU. Specifically for Greece, he noted that “there has been another
significant electoral rise of the KKE, starting from the 2019 European
elections (5.35%), the 2023 parliamentary elections of May (7.2%) and
June (7.7%), and now the European elections (9.25%).
This confirms that positive processes are taking place in society,in the
struggles and the elections of the mass movement. I would say that a
current disputing the dominant policy, i.e. that of the Commission, the
EU and the New Democracy government, is being stabilized and
strengthened; and, of course, this current is mainly expressed by the
increase in the prestige of the KKE and in the rallying of broader
forces around it.”
