To join forces with the KKE, addressing them with the message of militant coexistence, he called on the citizens tonight from Chania during his speech the Secretary General of the Central Committee of the KKE Dimitris Koutsoumbaswho stressed that responding to the KKE’s call to all those who are worried, to all those who are outraged and looking for a way out, is today ten times more necessary and imperative.
As he characteristically stated: “nothing is as it used to be, because now an imperialist war is unfolding before our eyes and in fact in a live connection. Where two robbery camps, the US, NATO, the EU and Russia, have fallen on a people, in a country, in Ukraine, to seize its wealth, to control its geostrategic position, energy sources and roads. Nothing has changed, because this is always the case in the system of monopoly capitalism, that is, imperialism, in which capitalism has passed for a century! When the imperialists can not resolve their differences through diplomatic agreements and “peace at the temple of the peoples”, they resolve them by war. This is also the case in Ukraine. However, Greece also participates and is actively involved in this war. Not only by sending multiple rounds of ammunition from military depots to send it to Ukraine, depriving it of its defense and provoking a Russian backlash. But it also actively participates with its infrastructure “.
In his speech, Dimitris Koutsoumbas noted that “the new defense agreement with the United States is in fact an aggressive agreement where”, as he said, “it was prepared by SYRIZA, but it completed and voted ND with PASOK. Slowly, that PASOK with a term in the American agreements, he would stay outside “. He questioned whether this agreement secures our sovereign rights from Turkish aggression, saying: “What kind of security are they talking about, when the Turkish fighters reach as far as Alexandroupolis?” What sovereign rights are they talking about when NATO says it recognizes only “NATO territory” and “NATO seas”. And all together, USA – NATO – EU, respond to these challenges with a dry “find them”, thus advancing the provocative Turkish demands “. Referring to the Souda base, he stressed that together with the port of Alexandroupolis they have an upgraded role in the war in Ukraine and reiterated the party’s position to close the bases and disengage the country from NATO and US plans.
During his speech, Dimitris Koutsoumbas argued that after the pandemic a new crisis is just around the corner: “A normal labyrinth and the people permanently trapped! This is how he feels even now with the daily hoarseness of precision, in energy, in the items of popular consumption. A hoarseness that does not go away, because if the government takes something out of the electricity bills, it puts them back to the people with the taxes but also the cuts from the budget. We are talking about such a mockery “.
He also noted that the KKE’s proposals for energy efficiency can breathe a sigh of relief into popular households, the self-employed traders and professionals, the workers, the unemployed, farmers and smallholders, who are trapped in a maze of poverty and the capitalists and monopolies. He particularly referred to the tourism workers whom he called on to turn their backs on claiming their rights and get a bigger share.
The Secretary of the KKE Central Committee also stressed that “nothing has changed in the kitchens of the bourgeois political system. With the same old ingredients they try to serve as “fresh” and “new”, the “old”. At the same time, he wondered: “How fresh is the proposal of the so-called progressive government that, when does SYRIZA put on the table, when does PASOK? With something like this, supposedly progressive slogans, generations and generations and here in Crete, they saw and see that in the name of “progress and modernization”, today, decades are behind and young children live worse than their parents and grandparents their. With such “progressive” slogans, the scales always leaned on capital gains in times of growth and times of crisis. With something so-called “progressive”, we were handcuffed to NATO and US plans. “With something so-called ‘progressive’ and ‘left’, today there are people who do not raise their heads.”
Commenting on the developments with the restoration of PASOK’s name, but also those who, as he pointed out, “sought the new PASOK in the arms of SYRIZA”, he said: the vision of socialism and from the struggle in general against the “right”. Today, however, SYRIZA and PASOK are trying to wash away capitalism and its filth again. And if, here and there, they chant something for progress, democracy and socialism, it is because the popular indignation is growing and may leave nothing standing of this rotten system but also of themselves. And because exploitation, poverty, crisis and war will not be easy to wash away in the coming years, laundry at the Maximos Palace may bring tomorrow, not one, but two or maybe three, bourgeois parties together. After all, it has happened in the past. That is why we unite our voice, our forces with the KKE. We take our place, in the struggles, in the movement, in the parliamentary, municipal and regional elections, with the KKE ballots “.
