Mass rallies of KKE against the government and the troika

On the 15th of November, the day after the second round of the regional and municipal elections, the KKE, which had a significant increase in votes, organised mass rallies in Athens Thessalonica, Patras and other cities throughout Greece.

The mass rallies were organised on the occasion of the visit of the “troika” representatives to Greece, who along with the social democrat government of PASOK plan new anti-people measures aside from those which have already been outlined in the memorandum and have already been agreed on and implemented.

In Athens the huge rally of the KKE was held at the central square of the city opposite the Parliament and in front of the Ministry of Finance. The General Secretary of the CC of the KKE, comrade Aleka Papariga, delivered a speech and stressed amongst other things:

“They bombard the people using the revision of the deficit as a weapon in order to increase the plundering of the people. The troika did not come uninvited to Greece, it has been a choice of PASOK. The memorandum and the troika are nothing but the continuation and the consequence of the “EU one-way road”, of the policy that serves the interests of the capital, of the capitalist restructuring. If we want to get rid of the troika we have to get rid of the majority of PASOK and ND at the political level, to get rid of the power of monopolies”.

The General Secretary of the CC of the KKE called on the workers and the youth to strengthen the class oriented labour and trade union movement (PAME) and the other class-oriented antimonopoly mass organizations of the farmers (PASY), the self employed (PASEVE), the youth (MAS) and the women (OGE) not only in order to block the measures and achieve some gains but also in order to pave the way for the people’s economy and power.
