Message of support of the Communist Youth Organizations

We denounce the violence, repression and the arrests of university students during the antiwar – anti-imperialist demonstration in Athens on April 16th

We denounce the Greek government of SYRIZA-ANEL for the orgy of violence and repression launched against the high school and university students that were demonstrating against the new imperialist crime in Syria. The pretext for this barbaric attack against the protestors was their effort to symbolically demolish the statue of Harry Truman.

No one should forget that Harry Truman was one of the biggest criminals of imperialism in the 20th century. He was the US president that ordered the detonation of atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki with more than 200.000 immediate deaths and millions of victims in the years that followed. He was the US president that launched the cold war, the one that ordered the attack against the people of Korea in 1950.

The violence of the security authorities led to the severe injury of six young people, while the police proceeded to the arrest of two militants who are now dragged to a trial based on false and unfounded indictment.

We denounce the SYRIZA-ANEL government since it suppresses the young people in Greece who struggle against the imperialist war, while it promotes the imperialist plans of the USA/NATO in the region of Eastern Mediterranean, Middle East and the Balkans. It bears tremendous responsibilities since it cedes our country’s territory for both old and new military bases of NATO and the USA, from where they launch murderous attacks against the peoples of the region.

We express solidarity with the struggle of the Greek people and youth that struggle against the country’s participation in the imperialist-war plans of NATO/USA/EU.

We demand the immediate acquittal of the two militants that are wrongfully accused.
