Communist Party of Greece (KKE): Solidarity with the courageous people of Cuba against criminal imperialist plans and any attempt at military intervention

In a statement concerning the aggressive actions of the United States against Cuba, the Press Office of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Greece (KKE) emphasizes the following:

“We condemn the provocative issuance by the United States of an arrest warrant against the leader of the Cuban Revolution, Raúl Castro —a move through which US imperialism once again bares its teeth against the heroic Cuban people, whom it has long sought to strangle economically through the criminal blockade imposed upon the country.

KKE MEP: Any attempt at US military intervention in Cuba must be condemned and prevented

During the hypocritical debate on human rights in Cuba held at the European Parliament’s plenary session in Strasbourg, the Communist Party of Greece (KKE’s) MEPs intervened through a statement delivered by the Party's Eurodeputy Lefteris Nikolaou-Alavanos.

The debate, which began with High Representative Kaja Kallas remaining silent on the US embargo, soon descended into an outpouring of anti-communism, attacks, and threats directed against Cuba. These, however, were firmly answered by  both the KKE MEP and other MEPs.

Big tech’s AI scam: Working America pays the price

By Nathan Richardson 

In the spring of 2026, as the U.S. economy teeters on the brink of stagflation and recession, America’s tech giants are once again shifting the burden of the crisis onto the working class. Meta is axing 10% of its workforce (roughly 8,000 real people) with cuts beginning in May and more planned later this year. 

Projections show deeper reductions could reach 20% by year’s end. Amazon is gutting over 30,000 corporate jobs, another 10% slice of its white-collar staff. These are not ‘streamlining’ measures. They are decisions driven by the structural logic of capitalist accumulation, presented as ‘AI efficiency.’”

China, the “Thucydides Trap” and the Illusion of “Anti-Imperialist Multipolarity”

By Nikos Mottas

President Xi Jinping’s invocation of the so-called “Thucydides Trap” during the recent hosting of Donald Trump was not a neutral geopolitical observation. It reflected a real and sharpening contradiction within the imperialist system: the contradiction between the dominant US-led capitalist bloc and the rising capitalist power of China.

According to the bourgeois theory of the “Thucydides Trap,” war becomes likely when an emerging power threatens the dominance of an established hegemon.

War against Iran: Trump's whim or a link in the strategy of US imperialism?

By Eliseos Vagenas 

The critical developments in the Persian Gulf region, marked by the US and Israeli military attack against Iran , which began on February 28, cast their shadow over global developments.

Every bourgeois media outlet and analyst has grabbed a “daisy”, trying to guess “will Trump strike again, or will he not strike again”. Such an approach, however, leaves important aspects of imperialist plans far from our attention and cultivates the mistaken perception that the peoples are hostages of a personality (Trump), who may not stand firm in his logic.

Communist Party of Venezuela: Delcy Rodríguez’s administration bows to foreign tutelage

The General Secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Venezuela (PCV), Oscar Figuera, rejected on Monday what he described as a policy of “tutelage” and “external imposition” on Venezuela, while denouncing the government led by Delcy Rodríguez as an administration “subjugated to transnational capital.”

During a press conference, Figuera stated that the current global landscape is marked by stark contrasts between countries resisting the pressures of big capital and those governments that, he said, “submit without resistance.”

Religion as Weapon: Trump Escalates the Theocratic Offensive

By Nathan Richardson

The Republican embrace of Christian nationalism under Donald Trump was never about sincere faith or “traditional values.” It was (and remains) a calculated power play: religion deployed as a bourgeois ideological instrument to consolidate executive authority, divide the working class, and mask naked class war. And Trump has only sharpened this weapon.

KKE: 65 years since the heroic victory of the Cuban Revolution at the Bay of Pigs

On the occasion of the 65th anniversary of the heroic victory of the Cuban Revolution at the Bay of Pigs, the CC of the Communist Party of Greece (KKE) stresses out: 

"In April 1961, the armed people of Cuba, under the leadership of Fidel Castro, crushed the attempted landing of US mercenary forces, inflicting a humiliating defeat on  North American imperialism.

The revolutionaries, led by the communists, delivered a decisive response to imperialist plans, halting the United States’ counter-revolutionary schemes, shattering the myth of the omnipotence of the imperialist superpower, and inspiring hope among the peoples of the world.

KKE: U.S and Israel exploit fragile ceasefire as deadly strikes hit Lebanon

The Press Office of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Greece (KKE) issued a statement regarding Israel’s deadly attacks on Lebanon and the statements made by Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis:

Israel’s deadly attacks on Lebanon—among the most lethal in recent weeks—demonstrate that the United States and Israel are exploiting the fragile ceasefire, which also included Lebanon, in order to recalibrate their attack tactics, at a time when none of the originally declared objectives of their imperialist intervention in Iran have been achieved.

Why socialist Cuba is more democratic than the U.S

By Nikos Mottas 

The renewed escalation of hostility by the Trump administration towards Cuba—through tightened sanctions, political pressure, and open ideological aggression—once again exposes a fundamental contradiction. 

A country that presents itself as the "global model of democracy" continues to treat a small socialist island as a persistent threat. This is not a coincidence. It points to something deeper: what is being contested is not “democracy” in the abstract, but two fundamentally different ways of organizing power in society.

What If Cuba Had Nuclear Weapons? The Limits of “Peaceful Coexistence”

By Nikos Mottas

Today, more than six decades after the Cuban Revolution, the United States continues to enforce one of the most prolonged and comprehensive systems of economic warfare in modern history. The blockade—tightened, codified, and expanded over decades—seeks not merely to pressure, but to suffocate. 

Sanctions on fuel, financial strangulation, extraterritorial enforcement, and constant efforts to disrupt Cuba’s access to energy and trade are not isolated measures; they form a coherent strategy aimed at exhausting a society that refuses to abandon its chosen path.

Israeli communist MP Aida Touma-Sliman: Why we oppose the imperialist war against Iran

In an interview published this week in Zo Haderech amid the ongoing wars in Iran and Lebanon, Hadash MP Aida Touma-Sliman expressed firm opposition to the war, stressing that opposition to war must be the starting point.

“Two days ago someone asked me why I oppose the war,” she said. “I replied that answers should be demanded from those who start wars, not from those who oppose them. The default must be opposition to war, because wars will never bring security or peace.”

Statement of the European Communist Action on the imperialist war in the Middle East

The anti-imperialist struggle of the peoples must be strengthened

Cuba responds firmly to U.S destabilization attempts: Morón vandalism denounced by revolutionary forces

The recent events in Morón have once again exposed the real dynamics at play in Cuba: a people enduring material hardship under siege, and a handful of disruptive elements attempting to turn those hardships into political destabilization.

In the early hours of March 14, a group of individuals carried out acts of vandalism against the local headquarters of the Communist Party, setting fire to property and attempting to manufacture an image of generalized unrest.

The people and their children must not be made to bear the consequences of war.

From Bay of Pigs to Speedboats: Trump Still Doesn’t Get It

There are moments when the class character of imperialist aggression reveals itself with brutal clarity. February 25, 2026, was one such moment. Cuban border guards intercepted a Florida-registered speedboat just one nautical mile off Cayo Falcones in Villa Clara province. The vessel carried ten armed Cuban exiles operating from U.S. soil. 
 
When the patrol approached to enforce sovereignty, the infiltrators opened fire. Cuban forces defended themselves, killing four including at least one U.S. citizen and wounding six.
