“Iran’s warnings that in retaliation they will hit US bases confirm that the ND government is turning our country into a target.”
The missile attacks launched by Israel against Iran and in the Iranian response were mentioned by the Secretary General of the KKE Central Committee, Dimitris Koutsoubas, in his speech in Arta on the 80th anniversary of the death of Mars Velouhiotis and the anti -fascist victory of the peoples.
Mr Koutsoubas noted, among other things, that “today bourgeois staff are seeking to cultivate fatalism. They seek to distract the submission of the working class, the people, to their class goals, which they usually present as “national”. With their sermons for “prudence” and “self -restraint” in today’s “troubled times”, they want to put on the ice the positive processes recorded in the labor popular consciousness and action. Because they feel that the stream of questioning the dominant policy can strengthen more and eventually take them and lift them up and their parties and especially their barbaric system. “
GG The KKE continued by saying that “our people now have the great weapon of his own experience. He sees with his eyes how false the words about the so -called “wardrobe ports” and the “guarantees” offered by the “strong alliances”, the NATO, the EU, the strategic alliance with the US. With these fairy tales, the ND government, tapping on the carpet laid down by the SYRIZA government, sought war bases from Evros to Crete, putting the whole country and the people in the spotlight. The same is true of Epirus, where the NATO base at Aktio, Preveza, hosts NATO’s flying spy radars, which provide valuable information on the NATO war machine, contributing to the support of the State -murderer of Israel and the Imperialist.
“Developments are critical! Now it must mean alarm everywhere! ” Mr. Koutsoubas stressed and continued: “The state of Israel’s killer with the planned attack on Iran pours oil on the fire of the war in the Middle East. Israel US – NATO -EU threaten the people of the region to impose their imperialist plans everywhere. The ND government, as well as other parties, have great responsibilities because they cover the criminal role of the state of Israel, in the name of the right to self -defense, all of them over time supported our country’s military cooperation with a terrorist state. Iran’s warnings that in retaliation they will hit American bases confirm that the ND government is turning our country into a target! Her responsibilities are criminal! ” added.
He stressed that “now our people need to strengthen their struggle. Require the immediate interruption of the military, political and economic relations of the Greek government with the state of Israel’s murderer, the recognition of the Palestinian state, and to further en masse his solidarity with the Palestinian people, the peoples of Iran, the Livan, the peoples of Iran.
“The Epirus region is even more involved in the tangle of competition, in trade wars, in support of Israel, with plans for the construction of the EastMed pipeline proposed to end up in Igoumenitsa and with plans for” Egnatia Ports “,” said D. In Russia where their products were exported, “” they have paid the large increase in the cost of energy, feed and fertilizers due to energy and commercial wars. ” He noted that “every summer, tourism and food workers in Corfu, Lefkada, all over the region feel, like everyone, the uncertainty about where the next war will pop.”
GG The KKE referred to the underfunding of the area’s health, education and fire department “to ensure the billions of war equipment, which have nothing to do with the country’s defense shielding, as Mitsotakis and Dendias put forward.” He noted that the people “are called again to pay the turn to the war economy” and stressed that it means: “To convert the University of Ioannina, into a support of NATO and the EU war plans. It means that the metallurgical continent will change its production and its production.
“It means that employees in the Epirus Food Industries, which are exhausted by intensification, will produce foods exported to military units, will become a meal for the massacre that drive other peoples to starvation,” he continued, adding: “It means that IT and IT companies. That is, instead of new technologies being used to solve social problems, they will be used to kill people and destroy productive forces in war. “
“All of the above, the people and youth of the region, all over the country, not only have to reject them, but it is imperative to oppose them decisively,” Mr Koutsoubas said, and concluded: “Today they need struggles, they need political choices that will stand on the” right side of the story “, become a “perpetrator” of other peoples. A conflict is needed in practice with the line that says “now heads in” and is always accompanied by intensity of authoritarianism and repression. But they count without the⦠hotelier, the workers’ popular movement, which can build a protection shield to anyone who resists their dirty plans. In this respect, there are bright examples of military and ghosts opposing the involvement of their units in military missions abroad, in NATO war rehearsals, as a whole in the country’s involvement in the wars of imperialists. They make us proud, we stand by their side! “
