The Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Venezuela (PCV) reported on Tuesday the death of its honorary president and veteran leader Perfecto Abreu Nieves, aged 80.   
In a statement released on the social network X, the PCV said that Nieves died after more than seven decades in the service of the struggles of the working people and the Venezuelan peasantry.  
 
 
 
            
        
          
        
          
        
The President of the Communist Party of Venezuela, Perfecto Abreu, qualified as unlawful and illegal the ruling of the Supreme Court of Justice (TSJ) that last August 11 declared the intervention of the PCV with an ad hoc board constituted by citizens from outside the organization. "The magistrate did not give the right to defense to the Communist Party of Venezuela", denounced Abreu in a press statement, after explaining that the Constitutional Chamber "admitted and decided immediately, using the procedure of mere law, without taking into account that among the plaintiffs there is not a single militant of the Communist Party of Venezuela".   
 
 
 
            
        
          
        
          
        
Oscar Figuera has been re-elected as the General Secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Venezuela (PCV), following the party's successful 16th National Congress. 
In its first plenary session, the renewed Central Committee appointed Figuera as General Secretary and Perfecto Abreu Nieves as President of the PCV. 
“We assess the 16th National Congress as a total success”, said Oscar Figuera pointing out that the Congress took place in a context of “threats, pressure and aggression from the government's leadership, chaired by Nicolas Maduro and the PSUV” against the PCV.
