Letter – Intervention by the Delegation of the KKE in the European Parliament to the President of the European Parliament, Mr. Martin Schulz

On the dangerous developments in Ukraine and the provocative events promoting the fascist hordes in the European Parliament

To the President of the European Parliament Mr. M. Schulz

 

 

With our letter we would like to chiefly denounce the new reactionary law of the government of Ukraine which imposes censorship on media, books, movies and every cultural and artistic creation in the name of "protecting national security" and "inciting ethnic hate". This law is yet another dangerous element of the politics used by the forces that ascended to the government after the intervention of the US-EU-NATO in Ukraine, which was carried out  in the framework of their rivalry with Russia and the anti-people plans of the bourgeoisie of Ukraine.

 

It is another blow against the people by the Ukrainian government which with the support of fascist forces continues the bombardment of Donbass, banned the Communist Party of Ukraine, while the abductions, the persecutions, the threats against communists and other workers, the murderous racist attacks by fascists attack groups continue.

 

The EU has a great responsibility for these dangerous and disturbing developments in Ukraine and it has even rewarded the reactionary government of Ukraine through the recent ratification of the so-called EU-Ukraine Association Agreement.

 

Besides the above, the Czech MEP of the EPP J. Stetina - as we have learned - has announced the invitation of A. Biletsky, head of the neo-Nazi Task Group Azov to Ukraine, to an event he organizes himself in the European Parliament (EP) this autumn. The announcement of this event in the EP has already caused a wave of complaints from political parties and social organizations.

 

These reactions are have come about  because A. Viletsky is a known fascist, head of the Social-National Assembly, which is part of the "Right Sector" of Ukraine. His actions and the actions of the fascist groups that he directs are non other than murderous attacks in the Donbass area against workers of the region. He is accused of war crimes and of specific racist fascist views, the awful theories regarding the Aryan Race.

 

With his invitation, the MEP Stetina, obviously continues in this way his anti-communist activity, which dates from way back. He played a leading role concerning the proposal to ban the KSM and the Communist Party of Bohemia and Moravia. These approaches fell on deaf ears with the fight and the revelations of the communists, the Czech people and the global mobilization of solidarity for the Czech communists.

 

With this letter we emphasize our total opposition against the dangerous developments in Ukraine, the increase of state authoritarianism and anti-communism, the reduction of basic democratic rights, the open encouragement and incitement of fascism and its murderous hordes. We declare that such an event in the EP as the one with the participation of A. Biletsky, or other Nazis, who are leading racist attacks, is a major provocation; it is condemnable and must be cancelled, also through our intervention.
