Supporting the further escalation of the imperialist conflict in Ukraine,  on 23 November 2022 the European Parliament adopted a resolution characterizing Russia as a “state sponsor of terrorism”. Putting forward the well-known “anti-terrorist” pretexts that have been utilized for imperialist interventions around the globe, the European Parliament, in continuation of previous resolutions-warmongering frenzy, attempts to “whitewash” the role of the Euroatlantic bloc in the imperialist conflict in Ukraine and Eastern Europe. It paves the way for further involvement of the EU in the war as well as for new sanctions that add fuel to the fire. The European Parliament and the other EU institutions have supported the sending of arms worthbillions of euros to Ukraine, the training of Ukrainian military personnel on European bases, the EU's military preparation measures for the generalization of the military conflict to which the intensification of imperialist rivalries is leading.

As the MEPs of the KKE voted against this resolution, as was natural, some “cunning” preachers of the EU-NATO propaganda keep repeatingthat the KKE supposedly “supports Putin and his brutal invasion”.Of course it’s common knowledge that the KKE from the very first moment condemned the unacceptable Russian invasion of Ukraine, while at the same time it highlighted the imperialist character of the war and the role of the USA - NATO - EU in it. It also called for independent organization of the popular struggle against the imperialist conflict and the involvement of our country. Over the last nine months,  the increasingly overt and multiform involvement of the Euroatlantic bloc in the war and the constant threat of generalization of the war hanging over the heads of the peoples, fully confirm the position and action of the KKE. This is exactly what annoys various writersof the bourgeois media, as well as a number of EU staffs and mechanisms that act in the dark within the European Parliament and target MEPs who denounce the responsibilities of both the US, NATO and the EU on the one hand and Russia on the other hand, in the imperialist war in Ukraine.
