Greece, Athens, 8th April
Communist Party of Greece
Dear comrades,
The 19th Congress of the KKE takes place at a very
critical time, a period of intense class struggle by monopoly capital and
imperialism to drive back the working class, not only in Greece but globally.
They are using every possible divisive tactic to break workers’ organisations and to undo the advances made by the working
class internationally over many decades. Not alone are they attempting to solve
the crisis of the system at the expense of the working class but there is now
also a permanent state of war in many areas of the globe, to halt the desire
for freedom and justice by the oppressed of the world.
Today the European Union is increasingly being exposed
to growing millions of workers as one of the main tools of control by monopoly
capitalism. It is an imperialist bloc, designed to maintain the power and
control of monopoly capitalism.
Your party has contributed in no small way to exposing
its true class character. Over recent years the struggle of the Greek working
class against both the Greek bourgeoisie and the European Union has inspired
workers everywhere. The contribution of the KKE to the mobilisation
of Greek workers has lifted high the banner and the morale of all communists
throughout Europe.
Now, as never before, we need the unity of all revolutionary
working-class forces in a united struggle to end the destruction of the living
standards of workers and to prevent the destruction of the global environment
in the drive for superprofits by monopoly capitalism.
We Irish communists express our solidarity with the
members of the KKE gathered at your 19th Congress as well as all KKE militants,
and we await the deliberations and the resolutions of your congress with great
interest.
Once again we extend our warm greetings and
anti-imperialist solidarity to the KKE at this crucial time.
Eugene Mc Cartan
General Secretary
