Message of Condolence of the GS of the CC of the KKE, Aleka Papariga, concerning the death of the President of Venezuela, Hugo Chavez

Excerpt: "He played the leading role in the promotion of a political plan to deal with poverty, to resolve serious social problems, to utilise the natural resources in opposition to the aggressiveness of US imperialism and domestic reaction. He stood at the side of Cuba and the peoples of Latin America. He returned to the position of president after the coup carried out by reactionary forces in April 2002, due to the intervention of the people and internationalist solidarity.

The KKE expressed its solidarity and support at every difficult moment for the people of Venezuela and continues to do so today against every attempt to trample on the people’s will."
