On Saturday 3 January 2026, the organizations of the KKE and KNE held a mass demonstration in the centre of Athens, culminating in a rally outside the US embassy.
Thousands of people took part in the demonstration, which marked the first immediate response of the communists in Greece to the criminal actions of the USA in Venezuela.
“Solidarity with the people of Venezuela! Bombs, blood, and the slaughter of peoples – this is what the USA calls peace” read the banner of the KKE and KNE. During the demonstration the statement issued by the Central Committee of the KKE on 3 January was read aloud.
Similar demonstrations were also held in Thessaloniki, where the KKE march ended outside the US consulate, as well as in Patras and Heraklion.
