“A group of commander -in -chiefs and their supporters inside and outside the borders have overthrown the Hellenic Republic,” Koumoundourou said.
‘Her sad anniversary April 21st It is always a reminder of the duty of shielding and defense of democracy, ”he said in a statement SYRIZA.
It also states: “A group of co -workers and their supporters inside and outside the borders overthrew the Hellenic Republic on April 21, 1967.
This black day was not a secluded event but the result of decades of intolerance, persecution, authoritarianism and violence after the democracy inherited by the Civil War.
The seven years of darkness and oppression that followed, culminated in the betrayal of Cyprus by the Hunts and their supporters, which indelibly marked the history of our country.
We always remember and honor the people who fought against the junta. We do not forget the political prisoners and those who suffered in the EAT-ESA hell, in prisons and in the dry.
Today we are fighting for democratic values and rights, as it is not self -evident, but conquests that require constant struggle and alertness, especially now that far -right and fascism are raising head.
The violation of the rule of law, the techno -fascism and the widening of inequalities create conditions of post -democracy. The answer will give the Left and the Democratic World again. “
