“It’s not in any respect an oxymoron that the KKE is asking to be represented within the European Parliament”, says the pinnacle of the KKE Central Committee, Dimitris Koutsoubas, in an interview with the newspaper “Kathimerini tis Kyriakis”.
As he explains, “it’s our long-standing angle in direction of the EU and in favor of an actual union of the peoples’ Europe that makes us the one dependable selection for anybody who desires to ship a message of disapproval, opposition to the EU and its politics, even and if it doesn’t agree with the entire of our place to disengage from this capitalist union and create a brand new Europe of Socialism. We’re the one ones who don’t have commitments within the EU of lobbies, multinationals, wars and we don’t really feel any want to decorate or “hood” something that’s mentioned and determined within the European Parliament, as all the opposite events do”.
Mr. Koutsoubas notes that the goal is “to additional strengthen the present of questioning of the dominant coverage carried out by all governments based mostly on EU tips”.
“The stronger the KKE comes out of this battle, the stronger the individuals shall be within the face of the difficulties they need to face and what’s going to come from June 10”, he emphasizes and provides: “The ND authorities should “shorten” , that the efforts of the sinful Social Democracy fail, that the vote just isn’t scattered to forces that exhaust their intervention in populist reveals within the Parliament, whereas, after all, no political message might be despatched by abstention”.
He factors out that every one the KKE’s causes for arguing with the postal vote “are legitimate of their entirety and have been confirmed”, arguing that for the reason that authorities left solely the choice of the postal vote “it’s apparent that we are going to name on the individuals to utilize it and vote en masse KKE”.
When requested “why do you rule out discovering widespread floor with the opposite events”, he solutions: “Initially, we by no means dominated out that we’d agree with one other occasion on some particular person positions. You need to ask the opposite opposition events, nonetheless, why they haven’t supported any modification, any proposal of the KKE regulation all these years”.
“The reason being that, finally, we now have a unique understanding of who ought to pay for all of this, what commitments needs to be met. Or extra merely, we’re according to what we assist, whereas others solely vote pre-election,” he provides.
Concerning whether or not “there may be concern that the exclusion of any post-election cooperation with the opposite forces of the Middle-Left makes it simpler for the ND to remain in energy”, the pinnacle of the KE of the KKE underlines: “We’re speaking about forces which have co-governed with the ND, have voted collectively on memorandums and lots of of unpopular legal guidelines, they vote virtually the whole lot collectively within the European Parliament. It’s exactly this collusion that consolidated the opinion that “there isn’t any various” and gave “wind to the sails” of ND and Mr. Mitsotakis.
When requested if Tik Tok “matches the KKE”, he replied that “these media may also be utilized by a political occasion to speak with the world, particularly with the youth, subsequent to, after all, the dwell contact and the ties that we primarily we search. The difficulty is to not abuse it and above all what’s the content material, the message that everybody is sending.”
Concerning the presence of the president of SYRIZA-PS, Stefanos Kasselakis, within the Palestinian Territories, he says: “I perceive that Mr. Kasselakis has discovered to deal with the whole lot, even the youngsters of the West Financial institution, as decor for his pre-election self-promotion, however on this genocide it has already been irrevocably recorded within the perpetrator’s supporters.”
“As for his assertion that ‘it’s lastly time for Greece to acknowledge the state of Palestine’, we fully agree and have been saying it continuous since 2015, when the related decision was unanimously accredited by the Parliament, which the governments first of SYRIZA and after ND they’ve been maintaining of their drawers for 9 consecutive years”, he provides.
Concerning Greece-Israel relations, Mr. Koutsoumbas notes: “The order is to cease any cooperation with a state that illegally owns the lands of one other individuals, makes unlawful settlements, blatantly violates all UN resolutions and worldwide regulation for many years and is now committing a genocide with over 35,000 lifeless, amongst them civilians, ladies, kids, the aged. No so-called “curiosity” is allowed to return above all of this. Our individuals don’t acquire something from this specific cooperation, which solely serves to present an alibi to different occupying states, for instance to Erdogan and Turkey, which owns the northern a part of Cyprus and a part of Iraq, Syria” .
“The State of Palestine have to be acknowledged right here and now on the borders of 1967 with East Jerusalem as its capital, as Spain, Eire and Norway have performed and as 145 of the 193 UN member states have performed,” he emphasizes.
As for Greek-Turkish, he factors out that “the primary factor that worries us is the topic and the motivations of the dialogue that’s being carried out. These are, on the one hand, maintaining Turkey within the NATO “embrace” and away from Russia, and on the opposite, the companies between giant Greek and Turkish enterprise teams”.
“On the desk of this dialogue, which isn’t being held for the peaceable coexistence of the peoples, objectively, unacceptable concessions from sovereign rights shall be put – in the event that they haven’t already been put – with a purpose to attain a settlement. Subsequently, there isn’t any room for complacency”, concludes the pinnacle of the Central Committee of the KKE.
