Cuba is not alone! Mass message of internationalist solidarity against imperialist threats

“Cuba is not alone!” —thousands of people, including many young people, proclaimed yesterday through their mass participation in the large rally organized by the Communist Party of Greece (KKE), expressing their solidarity with the heroic Cuban people and the Communist Party of Cuba.

People of all ages, waving red flags and the flag of the Island of Revolution, chanted with passion and strength: “The peoples are Cuba’s shield, end the blockade now”. The rally was followed by a large march towards the US embassy, with demonstrators holding images of Fidel Castro and Che Guevara and chanting “Hands off Cuba”.

The General Secretary of the Central Committee of the KKE, Dimitris Koutsoumbas, in his speech at the mass rally, emphasized, among other things:

“We are here today above all to express the unwavering internationalist solidarity of the KKE and KNE, as well as of broader sections of the Greek people, with the Cuban Revolution, the Communist Party of Cuba, and the Cuban people — and to condemn, from this large gathering, the long-standing and multifaceted imperialist blockade, the threats and aggression of the US and its allies against the Cuban Revolution.

The KKE and KNE draw inspiration from the legacy and heroic history of the Cuban Revolution. We honour the revolutionary struggles of the Cuban people and the great figures it has produced”.

The GS of the CC of the KKE also condemned the imperialist attack by the US and Israel against the peoples of Iran and Lebanon, as well as the stance of the Greek government, which is involved in dangerous imperialist plans, putting the Greek people at risk for the sake of the interests of the monopolies.
