Joint Statement of Communist and Workers Parties of Europe, 18 March 2009



18 March 2009






The Czech EU presidency in the midst of a capitalist economic crisis,has taken the initiative to organize a series of events to bring anticommunists and now attempt to equate communism and Nazism, to rewrite history and manipulate people's minds, especially the generation of youth, with a view to the future rather than the past.

The intention expressed in the EU (in countries where the Communist Party has already been outlawed),is to characterize communism and class struggle as crimes, it not only seeks to attack the Communists, nor is it limited only to countries in the EU.


Anticommunist hysteria that erupted a few years ago with the "Memorandum" on the need for international condemnation of crimes of totalitarian communist regimes "in the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe, hysteria which continues today, militates against the working class and other popular sectors.



They want to beat the leading forces of the popular movement and its anti-fighting plans and attempt to make the workers pay for the global crisis. They want to eliminate the struggle against the system operator and negate the possibility of a just society, as expressed by the ideology and the struggle of the communists. They want to beat the forces of resistance and counter them based on the popular anti-communist hysteria, lies and persecution. They have announced new attacks against Socialist Cuba and the peoples who are resisting imperialism.



We condemn these actions by the EU presidency and call on the peoples of Europe to react strongly and unreservedly condemned.
