The decision of the EU regarding Syria is an escalation of the imperialist offensive at the expense of the Syrian people
The Press Office of the CC of the KKE in relation to the decision of the Council of the Foreign Ministers of the European Union regarding Syria issued the following statement (28/5).
“The decision of the Council of the Foreign Ministers of the European Union, which officially paves the way for the supply of weapons to the so-called anti-regime forces in Syria by the EU member-states, constitutes an escalation of the imperialist offensive against the Syrian people. This decision enhances the multi-facetted military, financial and diplomatic support given by the EU, NATO together with Turkey, Qatar, and Saudi Arabia to the so-called Syrian opposition and is preparing the terrain for an open military intervention.
The KKE denounces the stance of the Greek government of ND-PASOK-Democratic Left which voted for the specific condition, confirming its involvement in the imperialist plans against the people of Syria. Those political forces which support the EU one-way street and the imperialist alliance of the EU are extremely exposed.
The Greek people must demand the immediate disentanglement of the country from the imperialist plans and interventions. The base at Suda must close immediately as well as all the NATO military bases in Greece and the Greek troops that participate in imperialist missions must return home.
