<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="background-color: #660000; font-family: arial;">Reports in the local media are speculating that the Maltese
Government will be signing the SOFA agreement (Status of Forces
Agreement).<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This had coincided with the
US Secretary of Defence to Malta.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="background-color: #660000; font-family: arial;">Malta’s signing of this agreement will go directly against
the Neutrality Clause in Malta’s Republican Constitution, and will also
undermine Dom Mintoff’s historical legacy.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="background-color: #660000; font-family: arial;">No amount of US aid by the US will make good for this. Once
part of Malta’s Sovereignty is lost, it will be gone forever.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="background-color: #660000; font-family: arial;">The Communist Party of Malta is sure that the present Social
Democratic Administration will not yield to any pressure that may be put by the
US side and neither any amount of remuneration will tempt the Maltese
Government.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="background-color: #660000; font-family: arial;">Failure by the Maltese Government by signing of this agreement
will put Malta into hot water, as this may open grounds for further whims by
the US. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="background-color: #660000; font-family: arial;">All progressives and left minded activists, within and
outside the Labour Party, stands firm along with the Communist Party in their will
to oppose this agreement.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> On <b>May 10, 2020</b>, a teleconference of the parties of the European Communist Initiative
was held at the initiative of the KKE, under the theme: <i>"The struggle of the communist
and workers' parties in the conditions of the pandemic and the new capitalist crisis"</i>. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The introductory speech at the teleconference was given by Dimitris Koutsoumbas,
General Secretary of the CC of the KKE.
The teleconference was attended by 24 communist and workers' parties from Austria,
Bulgaria, France, Denmark, Greece, Italy, Ireland, Spain, Croatia, Latvia, Belarus,
Lithuania, Malta, Norway, Hungary, Ukraine, Poland, Russia, Serbia, Sweden and Turkey.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The teleconference took place a few days after the celebration of <b>Labor Day</b> and <b>May 9 -
the 75th anniversary of the Antifascist Victory,</b> which this year were honored by the
parties under special circumstances. The parties of the European Communist Initiative
honored the countless dead of the workers' struggle and the anti-fascist victory of the
peoples, led by the Red Army, the Soviet people, and the Bolshevik Party. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">During the teleconference, the communist and workers' parties that participated
exchanged information regarding the health systems and labor rights in the European
countries, the measures of the bourgeois governments, the EU, and the attack of the
capital. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">During the discussion, it was proved that the CoVID-19 pandemic revealed the huge
problems of the public health systems in capitalist countries. These problems are caused
by the long-lasting anti-popular policy of underfunding, under-staffing, and degradation of
public health infrastructure, in favor of the commercialization and privatization of health,
to support the profitability of the monopolies. The situation in the health sector, which
has been formed for the benefit of capitalist profitability, on the one hand leads to the
intensification of doctors and nurses' work, and on the other hand is unable to substantially
meet the contemporary needs of prevention and healthcare of the people, confirming that
capitalism is the real "virus". </span><br />
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In addition, the current situation has highlighted the contradictions between capitalist
countries and the monopolies for the patent of the new vaccine, the treatments, and the
necessary medical supplies. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The parties of the European Communist Initiative have conveyed their experience from the
consequences of the new capitalist crisis that followed the slowdown in the economy that
took place in the previous period and is taking on great proportions in the conditions of the
pandemic. They denounced the attack of the capital manifested on all fronts and the antilabor measures of the bourgeois governments, which at the same time provide huge
amounts of money to support monopoly groups. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It was proved that there is a general trend towards rising unemployment, flexible forms of
employment, new anti-labor measures, and a suspension of trade union rights. It is
becoming clear that once again the working class and other popular strata will pay for the
capitalist crisis. Under these circumstances, the representatives of the communist and workers' parties of
the European Communist Initiative (ECI) discussed the positions of the parties and their
actions to protect people's health and workers' rights against the impasses of capitalism. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">First of all, during the teleconference, the parties expressed their warm thanks to the
doctors and nurses, the hospitals and health units' staff who gave the battle and are still
fighting against the pandemic, facing great difficulties. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The ECI parties also expressed solidarity with those affected by the CoVID-19 pandemic
and wished them a speedy recovery. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Moreover, they saluted Cuba's solidarity action with the most affected countries. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The parties agreed to reinforce the struggle for:</span><br />
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> Immediate strengthening of public health systems, recruitment of permanent medical and
nursing staff with full rights, the meeting of all needs in Intensive Care Units (ICUs) and
infrastructure required for the full operation of public health care and research services. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Immediate provision of all the necessary means of protection (masks, gloves, disinfectants,
etc.) to the people by the state free of charge and fight against profiteering. Immediate
provision of all protection measures to the healthcare personnel that gives this battle. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The communist and workers' parties in Europe noted that they will lead the struggle
against the attack of the capital, which in the face of the new crisis proceeds to
widespread layoffs and tries to further crush wages, working hours, leaves, and other labor
rights. They expressed their solidarity with the class-oriented trade unions that struggle in
order for the workers not to pay the consequences of the capitalist crisis. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">They spoke out against the imperialist plans of the USA, NATO, and the EU, as well as
against sanctions and economic exclusion measures that are criminal and make people's
lives difficult. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The parties that attended the teleconference noted that the current situation shows the
deep impasses of the capitalist mode of production (crisis, unemployment, the
impoverishment of the working class, the commercialization of social needs such as health,
imperialist wars, etc.). </span><br />
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background-color: #660000;"><span style="color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The <b>Communist
</b>and <b>Workers</b>' parties that
suscribe the present <b>APPEAL</b> declare:<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background-color: #660000;"><span style="color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">1. The serious international situation
which has come from the unstoppable global capitalist crisis - now expressed as
a health emergency that spreads throughout so many countries - requires strong
and decisive social and political action that puts the needs of the working
class, of the different people's of the world and of human kind above
everything else.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background-color: #660000;"><span style="color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">2. The insufficient scientific resources,
as well as the robbery of public health services, carried out by the capitalist
countries under neo-liberal adjustment policies in the interest of the world's
large monopolistic capital, which are imposed by the EU, the International
Monetary Fund and the World Bank, etc, bring with them greater difficulties
concerning the urgent and much needed measures which should be taken
immediately to defend both the health and the lives of the working class and
the people.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background-color: #660000;"><span style="color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">3. The degradation suffered by the
capitalist societies, which are based on individual self-interest, consumerism
and social Darwinism, adds even greater difficulties to efforts to deal with
this health crisis, that requires values of solidarity, sharing and social
justice: the values present in all of our revolutionary political projects aimed
at socialism-communism.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background-color: #660000;"><span style="color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">4. Currently, capitalism takes advantage
of the current health crisis as a perfect alibi to unleash a new attack against
both the working class and all peoples, strengthening financial capital and
monopolies and adding new cuts to salaries and to the rights of the working
class. The inter-imperialist conflicts contribute to the spiraling rise of
violence and social predation that, at the end, will be paid for by people and
workers alike.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background-color: #660000;"><span style="color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">5. The international working class, along
with the people, must react to this situation – today under the control of
world oligarchies – for the health emergency will bring short time terrible
consequences. It is necessary to show further evidence of the present
historical wreckage of capitalism at its imperialist stage, as well as the
urgent need for socialist construction in order to face the beginning of a new
historical stage so much claimed by the current and extraordinary development
of the productive forces.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background-color: #660000;"><span style="color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">6. That is why we send out a massive
appeal in order to start as many actions as possible so that the peoples and
the working class raise their flags of struggle.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>

<span style="background-color: #660000;"><span style="color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">7. Finally, we make an <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">APPEAL </b>to advance in the coordination

precautionary measures in the workplaces and the tragic shortages of permanent
staff and infrastructure in public hospitals. We devote our efforts to
strengthen workers' struggle, in order not to pay the burdens of the new crisis
of the capitalist system once again. We call on the working class and the
peoples to struggle against the aggressive plans of the USA, NATO, and the EU,
against the imperialist wars caused by imperialist contradictions and
competitions.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">

<span dir="LTR" style="background-color: #660000; line-height: 150%;"><span style="color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Under the pretext of the
pandemic, governments seek to deal a new harsh blow on the remaining labor
rights by supporting employers' unaccountability in the workplace. Along with
"Marshall plans", huge subsidies, tax exemptions, and very cheap
loans, they provocatively support business groups, while making the workers pay
the bill of the crisis, along with passing new anti-labor measures, reactionary
mechanisms, and measures to limit trade union action.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We are inspired by
the heroes of the bloody Chicago strike on May 1, 1886, aiming to establish the
8-hour day. The working class rose and with its heroic struggles managed to
impose the 8-hour day as a starting point for a series of gains in the 20th
century, which today are taken away one by one. Against the sermons about
“national unity” and the calls on the workers to align themselves with the
interests of the capitalists that exploit the pandemic and the forthcoming
capitalist crisis, we declare that we will not take a step back from our rights
and our demands to meet the contemporary needs of the working class and the
other popular strata!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The Communist and Workers' Parties, which co-sign this Joint Statement, would like also in
this way to honor a great revolutionary and theorist of scientific socialism, Vladimir Ilyich
Lenin, as April 22 marks the 150th anniversary of his birth.
Especially in the current conditions, and while the pandemic of CoVID-19 is spreading,
tragically demonstrating the great shortages of health systems in capitalist countries as
well as the anti-social and parasitic nature of the capitalist system, in the face of the new
crisis, the burdens of which will be again put on the workers' shoulders, the aggressive
nature of capitalism and the escalation of imperialist competitions, which pose new
dangers to peace and peoples, we feel an even greater need to refer to the historical
physiognomy of V.I. Lenin. A personality that dedicated his life to the cause of the working
class and other popular strata, to the struggle for the abolition of exploitation and the
construction of the socialist society.
We honor V.I. Lenin as the founder of the contemporary working-class party, the "party
of a new type", which was firmly separated from the opportunism and apostasy of the old
social-democratic parties. Such was the Bolshevik Party, which was at the forefront of the
class struggle of the proletariat and the other oppressed strata of Russia. Lenin's party led
Russia's working class to victory by overthrowing the exploiting classes and establishing the
dictatorship of the proletariat, the workers' and peasants' government, in the service of
the interests of the many, the exploited and the oppressed. V.I. Lenin defined and
substantiated the leading role of the Communist Party, not only in establishing workers'
power but also in constructing socialism.
We honor V.I. Lenin as the theorist who, taking into account the particular reality,
further developed the constituent parts of Marxism, i.e. philosophy, political economy,
and scientific communism. As an opponent of any opportunistic and revisionist distortion of
revolutionary theory and practice, dogmatism, sectarianism, and parliamentary illusions,
without denying the intervention through the parliament.
His works, such as "What the friends of the people are and how they fight the SocialDemocrats", "The Development of Capitalism in Russia", "What Is to Be Done", "Two Tactics
of Social-Democracy in the Democratic Revolution", "Materialism and Empirio-Criticism",
"Marxism and Revisionism", "The Collapse of the Second International", "Socialism and War",
"On the Slogan for the United States of Europe", "Imperialism, the Highest Stage of
2
Capitalism", "The State and Revolution", "The April Theses", "Left-Wing Communism: An
Infantile Disorder", "The Immediate Tasks of the Soviet Government", and "The Great
Initiative" are milestones in the propagation and development of Marxism and revolutionary
struggle. Lenin's valuable theoretical work is still timely and serves as a beacon for the
ideological-political education and action of every new generation of revolutionaries.
We honor V.I. Lenin as the leader of the Great October Socialist Revolution, which
about a century ago shook the world. The victorious revolution illuminated the power of
the class struggle, the power of the exploited and the oppressed -when they take the case
of their interests into their own hands and turn the wheel of history forward- in the
direction of social liberation. The October flame led and accelerated the establishment of
a number of Communist and revolutionary Workers' parties. Lenin had an insightful
strategic ability and skillfully handled alliances, abilities that he devoted to the cause of
the socialist revolution.
We honor V.I. Lenin as the leader of the world's first socialist state, which for the first
time established workers' power based on new revolutionary institutions, such as the
Soviets, sought the economic functioning of society on a new basis, the basis of the
satisfaction of contemporary people's needs and the multi-faceted free development of all
people, not the profitability of the few. The USSR, the first socialist state in the world,
which was realized with the special contribution of V.I. Lenin, brought to the fore new
unprecedented economic, social, political, and cultural achievements for the working class
and the wider popular strata that had a profound effect on historical progressive
developments around the world. It was a support to the peoples in the struggle for
socialism and peace.
We honor V.I. Lenin as the great internationalist, the leader who raised the flag of
proletarian internationalism against the treacherous attitude of the Second International
during the imperialist World War I, opposed bourgeois nationalism and other bourgeois
views such as the cosmopolitanism of the capital, and led the establishment of the Third
Communist International, which made a major contribution to the international labor and
communist movement and today is a basic source for drawing useful lessons from the
experience it accumulated through its action. Lenin's positions on colonialism led the
Communists to understand the issue of colonies and inspired them to lead the anti-colonial
struggles, both in colonial countries and colonies.
We honor V.I. Lenin as the tireless and consistent opponent of the imperialist war, the
defender of peoples' struggle for national and social liberation, social justice, peace, and
socialism.
The counter-revolution and capitalist restoration cannot conceal the achievements of
Socialism. The disasters and injustice we are experiencing, the acute problems and the
suffering of the working class, the small-middle strata, the peasantry and the peoples
overall caused by capitalist exploitation and oppression, emphasize the necessity and
timeliness of socialism all over the world.
The Communist and Workers' Parties denounce the wave of silence as well as the
reactionary and anti-communist distortion that has been unleashed around the world by
the political forces that serve the interests of the capital against V.I. Lenin to the workers
3
and the youth. We struggle for the continuation of his work, we are committed to continue
defending and propagating his legacy and we call on the workers and the people to learn
from it. </span></div>

<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> The Communist and Workers' Parties are positioned with responsibility before our peoples. We are here! We are present at the forefront of the struggle to immediately take all necessary measures to protect the health and safeguard the rights of the working class and the popular strata everywhere!<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">We extend our heartfelt thanks to the doctors, nurses, the hospital and health units personnel that are fighting this battle facing great difficulties.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">We express our solidarity with those affected by the CoVID-19 pandemic and wish them speedy recovery from the disease.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">We salute the countries that develep solidarity actions with the most affected countries, such as the sending of protective materials and health professionals from countries such as China, Cuba and Russia, actions that are in stark contast to the absence of the European Union.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The CoVID-19 pandemic tragically proves the huge shortages of health systems in all capitalist countries that were known before the outbreak of the coronavirus. These shortages did not occur accidentally, they are the result of the anti-people's policy pursued by governments in the service of the big capital to commercialize and privatize health, to support the profitability of monopoly groups. This policy undermines the great scientific and technological capabilities available today to meet all prevention and healthcare needs of the people.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Today's experience reveals the anti-social and parasitic nature of capitalism and highlights the superiority and timeliness of socialism and central scientific planning based on popular needs, which can secure primary healthcare and prevention, hospitals, medical and nursing staff, medicine, laboratories, medical exams and everything else needed to meet the constant as well as any emergency health needs of the people.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The pre-existing slowdown in world economy is now being furtherly reinforced by the spread of the coronavirus and increasing the risk of a new crisis in the coming period. In spite of the propaganda about "unity", governments in the service of the big capital focus their financial measures on the support of monopoly groups and will once again seek to throw the burden of the crisis on the workers and the other popular strata. The workers and the peoples cannot and must not pay again!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">"Individual responsibility" cannot be used as a pretext to cover state and government responsibility. Today, taking the necessary measures also requires the struggle of the peoples against the policy of supporting the monopoly groups, which sacrifices the satisfaction of the needs and the health of the peoples at the altar of capitalist profitability.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The Communist and Workers' parties demand that all necessary measures be taken immediately to address the epidemic, including the following:<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Immediate provision of all necessary means of protection (masks, gloves, antiseptics, etc.) by the state to the people free of charge and fight against profiteering.

Immediate action to protect workers in the workplace.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">No to any curtailment of the democratic rights of the peoples under the pretext of the coronavirus.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">As the Covid-19 pandemic continues to spread over the whole
planet causing enormous human pain and loses, it tragically confirms the
existence of two different approaches: one insisting to put profits and
imposition of global control above public health and the wellbeing of their own
people , and a different one putting people, their health and wellbeing, above
all other interests. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Amidst Covid-19 pandemic, in different continentspeople
become witnesses of the internationalism and solidarity exhibited by Cuba as it
responds to calls for assistance by dispatching medical teams to tenths of
countries. This humanitarian response is a continuation of decades of
disinterested practice when Cuban doctors and nurses came to the help of countries
stricken by natural disasters or epidemics. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Whilst the word “Solidarity” is echoed from different
corners as the necessary approach for the whole planet to face the pandemic,
the US choose to further harden the illegal economic, commercial and financial
blockade imposed on Cuba. At these critical times, when human lives are at
stake, the US, by imposing the extraterritoriality clause of the Helms-Burton
Law, obstruct personal protective equipment, ventilators, and test kits to be
acquired or reach Cuba. This is the most gruesome manifestation of the criminal
60-year-long blockade and its consequences for the life and economic
development of Cuba and its people.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<br /></div>
<div style="border-radius: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: "Open Sans", sans-serif; margin-bottom: 10px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white;">The Communist and Workers' Parties are positioned with responsibility before our peoples. We are here! We are present at the forefront of the struggle to immediately take all necessary measures to protect the health and safeguard the rights of the working class and the popular strata everywhere! </span></div>
<div style="border-radius: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: "Open Sans", sans-serif; margin-bottom: 10px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white;">We extend our heartfelt thanks to the doctors, nurses, the hospital and health units personnel that are fighting this battle facing great difficulties. </span></div>
<div style="border-radius: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: "Open Sans", sans-serif; margin-bottom: 10px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white;">We express our solidarity with those affected by the CoVID-19 pandemic and wish them speedy recovery from the disease. </span></div>
<div style="border-radius: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: "Open Sans", sans-serif; margin-bottom: 10px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white;">We salute the countries that develep solidarity actions with the most affected countries, such as the sending of protective materials and health professionals from countries such as China, Cuba and Russia, actions that are in stark contast to the absence of the European Union. </span></div>
<div style="border-radius: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: "Open Sans", sans-serif; margin-bottom: 10px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white;">The CoVID-19 pandemic tragically proves the huge shortages of health systems in all capitalist countries that were known before the outbreak of the coronavirus. These shortages did not occur accidentally, they are the result of the anti-people's policy pursued by governments in the service of the big capital to commercialize and privatize health, to support the profitability of monopoly groups. This policy undermines the great scientific and technological capabilities available today to meet all prevention and healthcare needs of the people. </span></div>
<div style="border-radius: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: "Open Sans", sans-serif; margin-bottom: 10px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white;">Today's experience reveals the anti-social and parasitic nature of capitalism and highlights the superiority and timeliness of socialism and central scientific planning based on popular needs, which can secure primary healthcare and prevention, hospitals, medical and nursing staff, medicine, laboratories, medical exams and everything else needed to meet the constant as well as any emergency health needs of the people. </span></div>
<div style="border-radius: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: "Open Sans", sans-serif; margin-bottom: 10px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white;">The pre-existing slowdown in world economy is now being furtherly reinforced by the spread of the coronavirus and increasing the risk of a new crisis in the coming period. In spite of the propaganda about "unity", governments in the service of the big capital focus their financial measures on the support of monopoly groups and will once again seek to throw the burden of the crisis on the workers and the other popular strata. The workers and the peoples cannot and must not pay again! </span></div>
<div style="border-radius: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: "Open Sans", sans-serif; margin-bottom: 10px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white;">"Individual responsibility" cannot be used as a pretext to cover state and government responsibility. Today, taking the necessary measures also requires the struggle of the peoples against the policy of supporting the monopoly groups, which sacrifices the satisfaction of the needs and the health of the peoples at the altar of capitalist profitability. </span></div>
<div style="border-radius: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: "Open Sans", sans-serif; margin-bottom: 10px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white;">The Communist and Workers' parties demand that all necessary measures be taken immediately to address the epidemic, including the following:</span></div>
<div style="border-radius: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: "Open Sans", sans-serif; margin-bottom: 10px;">
<br /></div>
<ul style="border-radius: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: "Open Sans", sans-serif; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 0px;">
<li style="border-radius: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; text-align: justify;"><span style="background-color: #660000; color: white;">Immediate strengthening of public health systems by state funding, recruitment of full-time medical and nursing staff with full labor rights. Meeting all the needs of Intensive Care Units (ICUs) and the infrastructure needed for the full functioning of public healthcare and research services.</span></li>
</ul>
<ul style="border-radius: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: "Open Sans", sans-serif; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<li style="border-radius: 0px; box-sizing: border-box;"><span style="background-color: #660000; color: white;">Immediate provision of all necessary means of protection (masks, gloves, antiseptics, etc.) by the state to the people free of charge and fight against profiteering. Provision of all protection measures to all healthcare personnel giving this battle at the hospitals with sacrifices and at their own cost.</span></li>
</ul>
<ul style="border-radius: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: "Open Sans", sans-serif; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<li style="border-radius: 0px; box-sizing: border-box;"><span style="background-color: #660000; color: white;">Protection of the income and rights of the working-popular strata. To put a brake on the unaccountability of the capital that under the guise of the CoVID-19 epidemic proceeds to massive redundancies and tries to furtherly trample over wage rights, working time, leave from work, and other labor rights. Immediate action to protect workers in the workplace.</span></li>
</ul>
<ul style="border-radius: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: "Open Sans", sans-serif; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<li style="border-radius: 0px; box-sizing: border-box;"><span style="background-color: #660000; color: white;">No to any curtailment of the democratic rights of the peoples under the pretext of the coronavirus.</span></li>
</ul>
<ul style="border-radius: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: "Open Sans", sans-serif; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<li style="border-radius: 0px; box-sizing: border-box;"><span style="background-color: #660000; color: white;">End all sanctions and measures of economic exclusion, which in this situation are even more unjust and criminal and make the life of the peoples in the countries they turn against to even more dificult.

</ul>
<ul style="border-radius: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: "Open Sans", sans-serif; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 0px;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EL" style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: #660000; color: white;">Today, not only social
discrimination in EU's state-members at the expense of women are maintained,
but also deepened as a result of capitalist exploitation and a consequence of
the all-rounded attack of the capital with harsh measures against women's of
the working class, salaried scientists, self-employed, farmers, pensioners. It
is demonstrated again that lack of stable daily and weekly working hours, in
conditions where women bear almost the exclusive responsibility for caring for
the family, the generalized insecurity of the working woman, are not a result
of some so-called "wrong" political choices of the EU and its
governments. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EL" style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: #660000; color: white;">The EU and its
governments in a unitary way defend the fundamental axis of the EU strategy for
intensifying the exploitation and oppression of salaried women, as a means for
improvement of the competitiveness of the business groups. By invoking
"gender equality", "equal treatment", "equal
opportunities", "balancing professional and personal life", they
abolish the last of the rights such as restricting night-shifts for women,
maternity leaves, positive difference in the retirement age etc. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EL" style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: #660000; color: white;">The ECI calls for the
strengthening of the struggle for permanent defense of the contemporary rights
of women in work, social protection of maternity and family. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EL" style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: #660000; color: white;">Only with the economic
and political power in the hands of the working class can women's work and use
of free-time take on a creative content; this is the way for equality and
emancipation of women to be built upon solid foundations.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 17.12px;">so-called “deal of the century” introduced by Trump administration together with the corrupt leader of Israel, Natanyahu, is another disgraceful attempt to endorse and bolster the act</span><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">The</span><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;"> </span><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">ions of the oppressor. </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="background-color: #660000; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 17.12px;"><span style="color: white;">It is neither a peace treaty nor a deal between equals. It strengthens and shields the Israeli occupation, supports the annexation of the Jordan Valley and preserves the settlements. It violates the sovereign rights of the Palestinian people.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="background-color: #660000; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 17.12px;"><span style="color: white;">As communist and workers’ parties of the European Communist Initiative, we condemn, in the strongest sense, this treacherous and very dangerous initiative. We consider the plan as an invalid, irrelevant piece of paper, which has excluded the wishes of the people of the region. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="background-color: #660000; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 17.12px;"><span style="color: white;">This device is a demand to the Palestinian people to surrender their fundamental rights and freedoms,their rights to throw off the occupation, to liberate the Palestinian territories and create an independent Palestinian state.It is an endorsement of Israeli annexation.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="background-color: #660000; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 17.12px;"><span style="color: white;">The plan, which is designed to squeeze the Palestinian people into various enclaves, has nothing to do with the interests of the people in the region.If this deal is implemented, for the forthcoming years, the dominance of the Israeli bourgeoisie and the imperialist powers will increase. The “deal” is to serve the criminal interests of the Israeli bourgeois state and its imperialist allies.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="background-color: #660000; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 17.12px;"><span style="color: white;">Trump's miserable effort to bribe the Palestinian people and people of the surrounding countries, under the pretext of “development” will be at the expense of their freedom, peace and historical bonds. The so-called development or prosperity will not benefit the wellbeing of the people but will serve to fill the pockets of the monopoly-owners.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="background-color: #660000; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 17.12px;"><span style="color: white;">The plan provocatively and unjustly denies the rights of return of millions of refugees and their children and grandchildren, families who have been forcefully expelled from their land.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="background-color: #660000; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 17.12px;"><span style="color: white;">Experience highlights the necessity of the working class unity, the strengthening of the Palestinian people's struggle, and the intensification of internationalist solidarity. No class-collaborationist approach can bring peace and freedom to the people of Palestine. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="background-color: #660000; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 17.12px;"><span style="color: white;">Communist and workers parties of Europe are in full solidarity with the people of Palestine against the occupation, for establishing an independent state with East Jerusalem as its capital, the release of Palestinian prisoners and assuring the right to return of the refugees. It should be the people of the region, and no other foreign actor, to determine their own future, and the right to determine this belongs only to them. Against all dirty “deals”, we will support the resistance of the Palestinian people.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-GB" style="background-color: #660000; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 17.12px;"><span style="color: white;">Down with the so-called “deal of the century”!<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 107%;">We honour Labour Day, the dead
workers of Chicago in 1886, all the unyielding fighters of the class struggle
that even gave </span><span lang="EN-US" style="line-height: 107%;">their</span><span style="line-height: 107%;"> lives for the rights of their class, </span><span lang="EN-US" style="line-height: 107%;">for
</span><span style="line-height: 107%;">the abolition of the exploitation of man by man, for socialism-communism. We draw strength from
the historical experience by organizing the contemporary struggles of the working class, its alliance with the other popular strata, against the attack
of the capital, the anti-popular measures of the EU and its governments,
against imperialist interventions and the EU-US-NATO wars, in order to meet contemporary
needs.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="background-color: #660000; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: white; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The contradictions of capitalism are
sharpening and apparent to all: continuous wars, refugees, crises, mass
unemployment, exploitation, inequality, workers’ impoverishment and environmental
pollution.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="background-color: #660000; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: white; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The capital tries to conceal the real
causes that generate this reality in order to divert the correct popular
indignation towards directions that perpetuate capitalism, hiding the fact that
the impoverishment of the working masses internationally and the growing
inequalities between rich and poor, as well as between countries with different
levels of development, are the result of the division of society into classes
and of the process of capitalist accumulation.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="background-color: #660000; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: white; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The injustice that characterizes
capitalism as a system based on exploitation is endeavoured to be justified as
a result of the economic conjuncture or as a defect in the management of the system, whereas, instead, it is a characteristic intrinsic to capitalism itself,
both in crisis and in its economic recovery phase.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="background-color: #660000; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: white; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The capital also uses nationalism - racism
as a weapon of "mass distraction". Only the imperialist bourgeoisie
benefits from this, thus hiding its enormous responsibilities for wars and the
looting of entire countries. The refugees and immigrants who flee from their
countries because of imperialist wars, as well as from the imperialist peace which
comprises exploitation, diseases and misery, contribute to widening the "reserve
army of labour " that capital uses to further reduce everyone's wages.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="background-color: #660000; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: white; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">On May 1st, we reiterate once again
the solidarity of the communists and the labour movement with immigrant
proletarians. The class enemy is not an immigrant, but the capitalist. It is
the capitalist who fires, who reduces wages, who imposes inhuman working
conditions. The way out can only be found in class unity and equality of rights
for all workers, both native and immigrants. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 107%;">We denounce the opportunism of
social-democracy, of the collaborationist</span><span style="line-height: 107%;"> </span><span style="line-height: 107%;">trade unionists and their compromised leadership, who act to defuse
the people’s discontent and only help to guarantee the survival of a dying
system. The bourgeoisie tries to neutralize the popular discontent also by
suppressing social protest and by channelling it to movements that, regardless
of their "right" and "left" connotation, serve the
interests of the capital, its governments and its international imperialist
alliances, such as the EU and NATO.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="background-color: #660000; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: white; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">For example, the bourgeoisie is
trying to divert the just and widespread indignation against the ecological
devastation and the damage to the health of workers towards neo-ecological
movements that criminalize the individual consumer instead of the big
monopolies, omitting to denounce that what threatens the very survival of the planet is the exploitation of natural resources by capitalist monopolies in
search for profit maximization and imperialist wars. Hope lies in the class
struggle, in the organization and regroupment of the workers' movement.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="background-color: #660000; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: white; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">This year, May 1st coincides with the
beginning of the European election campaign. The peoples know from their
experience that the EU is not improving, it can only be worse, more anti-popular
and reactionary. This is why we must break the chains that hold us, prisoner, we
must intensify the struggle against the EU and NATO, the political-military
institutions of European imperialism that guarantee the domination of capital to
the detriment of workers and peoples.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="background-color: #660000; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: white; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The Europe of workers and peoples cannot
arise by this European Union that perpetuates capitalist oppression and
imperialist aggression.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="background-color: #660000; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: white; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">We must concentrate our action against
the EU and NATO, starting from this May 1st, a day from which a new season of
proletarian struggles must start for the claiming of labour rights, the overthrow
of capitalism, for socialism-communism.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 107%;">On the occasion of this May 1st the
Communists greet and express internationalist solidarity with the workers of
Europe and all over the world, who are everywhere engaged in the struggle for
their rights and their emancipation from the </span><span lang="EN-US" style="line-height: 107%;">shackles </span><span style="line-height: 107%;">of the capitalist system.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="background-color: #660000; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: white; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Long live May 1st!<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="background-color: #660000; line-height: 107%;"><span style="color: white; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Proletarians of the world, unite!<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<b><span lang="MT" style="background-color: #660000; line-height: 115%;"><span style="color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Solidarity with the people of Sudan<o:p></o:p></span></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="MT" style="background-color: #660000; line-height: 115%;"><span style="color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The Communist and Workers’ Parties undersigning this statement condemn the continued repression of peaceful protesters in Sudan since 19th December 2018. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="MT" style="background-color: #660000; line-height: 115%;"><span style="color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">They note that a national state of emergency was declared in Sudan on 22 February by president Omar al-Bashir amidst the dictatorial regime’s continued attempts to suppress the mass popular protests. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="MT" style="background-color: #660000; line-height: 115%;"><span style="color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This development has taken place against the backdrop of attempts by US imperialism and its reactionary allies in the region to find a way to rescue the regime through certain superficial changes in the composition of the government. All these conspiracies are an expression of political panic among imperialist and reactionary forces that fear the eventual victory of the Sudanese people and their aspirations for freedom, democracy, peace and social justice. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="MT" style="background-color: #660000; line-height: 115%;"><span style="color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The democratic opposition forces in Sudan have strongly condemned these new repressive measures and called for continued mass and popular protests to achieve the goals of the Sudanese people. The Sudanese Communist Party has called for a strengthening in the resolve and unity of the opposition, towards preparing for the declaration of a general strike and subsequent campaign of civil disobedience. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="MT" style="background-color: #660000; line-height: 115%;"><span style="color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In response to the declaration of the national state of emergency, despite the escalating repression meted out by the regime’s security forces, mass popular demonstrations have taken place in Khartoum and the main cities as well as towns all over Sudan. About 3000 people, among them over 200 women activists, are still languishing in the prisons and detention centres of the regime under harsh and inhumane conditions. They include 16 members of the Central Committee of the Sudanese Communist Party as well as scores of its cadres and members. Among the detainees are Comrade Mohamed Mokhtar al-Khatib, the political secretary of the party, and members of the leadership of the party: Masoud Al Hassan, Sidig Yousif, Ali Saeed, Hanadi Fadl, Faiza Nugud, Salih Mahmoud, Amal Gabralla, Mohamed Aburas, Hashim Mirghani, Osama Hassan, Seid Ahmed Al Khatib and Mokhtar Mahmoud. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span lang="MT" style="background-color: #660000;"><span style="color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We, Communist and Workers Party of the world, decisively denounce the imperialist plans, the undermining tactics and the menaces unleashed by the USA, the EU and their allied governments in Latin America, aiming at overthrowing the legally elected President of Venezuela, Nicolas Maduro; at subjugating the people of the country into their imperialist interests; and at looting the country’s wealth-producing resources.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="MT" style="background-color: #660000;"><span style="color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">After the failed provocation prepared by the USA using the imperialists’ puppet Guaidó on February 23rd in the Colombian borders, under the pretext of “humanitarian aid”, new scenarios are promoted for a coup or even an imperialist military attack, while simultaneously they continue the effort to organize more provocations that will give a pretext for the escalation of the intervention.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="MT" style="background-color: #660000;"><span style="color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We vehemently condemn the statements of John Bolton, National Security Advisor of the USA, according to which the government of the USA follows the Monroe Doctrine that considers the whole of Latin America as their exclusive zone of interest.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span lang="MT" style="background-color: #660000; line-height: 115%;"><span style="color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It is really shameful that the Maltese Government has joined forces with other EU Governments who are backing the Trump administration in its’ efforts to overthrow the legitimate Government of Venezuela and install a dictator against the will of the majority of the people of Venezuela.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="MT" style="background-color: #660000; line-height: 115%;"><span style="color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Nicholas Maduro was elected by 67.8% of the votes cast, in an election were 6 other opposition parties participated, and two opposition parties boycotted this election held last May. The Economic situation in Venezuela is the direct result of US and EU sanctions and of the confiscation of Venezuela’s money by the US and European Banks. The Bank of England alone confiscated 2.1 Billion Sterling in gold.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="MT" style="background-color: #660000; line-height: 115%;"><span style="color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Foreign observers including those coming from the United States stated afterward that the elections were fair, even the other Six opposition Parties that had participated, none of them protested against the results obtained. The call by the EU for fresh elections is not justified. This call exposes the EU for what it really is, another imperialist organization.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="MT" style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This attitude taken by the Maltese Government puts the Prime Minister is a contradictory position. One one hand the Prime Minister had supported the leader of opposition Adrian Delia because he was democratically elected, and the other his is supporting Juan Guaido proclaimed himself interim president without actually being elected. In other words, both the EU and the Maltese Government are supporting a dictator, and coup d’etat in Venezuela as the United Nations recognize Nicholas Maduro and his Government as the legitimate President and Government of Venezuela.</span><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif; font-size: 14pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;">
<b><span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;">
<span lang="MT" style="background-color: #660000;"><span style="color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">If I were to ask you this Question, some would surely say a dictatorship, I am sure. This, however, is the wrong answer, the trouble is, that is how the US controlled Western Media describe Cuba, This is very from the truth. In fact, Cuba has a more democratic system than ours here in Malta. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;">
<span lang="MT" style="background-color: #660000;"><span style="color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Democracy in Cuba is a participatory democracy, where political power is in the hands of the people and not in the hands of political parties, There are about 133 thousand grass root organizations in which the population participates. Each organization has its own assembly and each assembly elects a delegate to represent them in the National Assembly, with a mandate that this delegate will speak and support of what was decided in the assembly. Failing to do so he is recalled back and replaced<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;">
<span lang="MT" style="background-color: #660000;"><span style="color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">At present in Cuba a new constitution is being discussed at this grassroots assemblies when agreements are reached, in each assembly, then each assembly contribution goes to the National Assembly. The Final agreements go back to the people. Who will accept or reject it in a referendum.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;">
<span lang="MT" style="background-color: #660000;"><span style="color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This is a far cry to what is happening here in Malta with regards to a new constitution that is being discussed now.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;">
<span lang="MT" style="background-color: #660000;"><span style="color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This in itself explains why there is no need for any other Political Party in Cuba, then the Party of the revolution which is the Communist Party of Cuba.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="background-color: #660000; color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b><span lang="MT">How could there be a dictatorship in Cuba</span></b><span lang="MT">? :<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;">
<span lang="MT" style="background-color: #660000;"><span style="color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">When after the revolution illiteracy was completely eradicated, over 10 Million persons were taught how to read and write.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;">
<span lang="MT" style="background-color: #660000;"><span style="color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Where the health system is the best and advanced even US citizens go there for cure<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;">
<span lang="MT" style="background-color: #660000;"><span style="color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Where during his tenure as President of Cuba Fidel Castro, one could have met him on the streets mingling with people.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;">
<span lang="MT" style="background-color: #660000;"><span style="color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">One must understand to achieve this popular democracy one must completely do away with the class society that exists in a liberal bourgeois democracy. Unless the Bourgeoisie are completely silenced there can never be an egalitarian society.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;">
<span lang="MT" style="background-color: #660000;"><span style="color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> If we want Privileges, classes, to disappear, free markets must be done away with. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;">
<span lang="MT" style="background-color: #660000;"><span style="color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> This is not undemocratic, you are liberating the masses from exploitation, and from the dictatorship of the Capital. The Capitalist system must be eliminated, and so must the bourgeois class that lives from this system. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;">
<span lang="MT" style="background-color: #660000;"><span style="color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Finally that what being a socialist really means <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

Today, there are many more who admit that the declarations and promises of the EU and <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="result_box9"></a>of the forces that are leading it have been refuted.

Democratic freedoms, including trade union rights, are under attack. The ultra-right and neo-fascism, that had been defeated by the struggle of the peoples in the 20th century, are appearing again in Europe, while anti-communism and the falsification of European history is taking on an institutional character. In certain member states, the ultra-right forces are participating in government, while the system allows them to spread the poison of racist hatred, xenophobia, chauvinism, sexism, and homophobia, questioning the idea of equality.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

No one doubts that migration and the refugee crisis is a complex and multidimensional issue. However, militarism, racism and xenophobia can never be the response. The progressive forces are called upon to struggle in each EU member-state in order to give responses in accordance to international law and for the principles of solidarity, internationalism and class unity of the working people to prevail.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="background-color: #660000; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: white;">In addition to the framework of Treaties, Common Policies and the Stability Pact, the EU has in recent years created a draconian mechanism to exercise suffocating control over the budgets and fiscal policies of member-states through the Fiscal Treaty, the 'Economic Governance' and 'European Semester". The Economic and Monetary Union is deepening, economic-political relations of dependence are being institutionalized, the sovereignty for exercising a different policy at a national level is being nullified, the democracy and the people's right to socio-economic development undermined. The "Banking Union" is pushing for a gigantic concentration of capital and the control of the financial systems of states. Free trade agreements with the powerful centres of the world (such as CETA with Canada), in combination through the neo-colonial trade policy with the developing peripheries of the world, constitute the external aspect of a profoundly unjust and exploitative economic model.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

However, not only does the EU not listen to the voices of the peoples, but it is intensifying the attack on our people’s standard of living and rights. With the slogan "More Europe", the leaders of the EU are not discussing about a different path or a different Europe, but about the speed with which the EU of the monopolies, militarization and directorates will continue to be strengthened. On the other hand, not only is the ultra-right’s nationalism and racism not an alternative, but represents the most reactionary face of capitalism, reminiscent of Europe's darkest eras.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
