On the occasion of the 65th anniversary of the heroic victory of the Cuban Revolution at the Bay of Pigs, the CC of the Communist Party of Greece (KKE) stresses out:
"In April 1961, the armed people of Cuba, under the leadership of Fidel Castro, crushed the attempted landing of US mercenary forces, inflicting a humiliating defeat on North American imperialism.
The revolutionaries, led by the communists, delivered a decisive response to imperialist plans, halting the United States’ counter-revolutionary schemes, shattering the myth of the omnipotence of the imperialist superpower, and inspiring hope among the peoples of the world.
Sixty-five years after the Victory at the Bay of Pigs, the imperialists, taking advantage of the unfavourable international correlation of forces, continue the efforts to strangle the Cuban people and their Revolution. Yet, the people of Cuba, who for seven decades have thwarted the plans of North American imperialism, drawing on their heroic history and the solidarity of all the peoples of the world, can prevail once again!
The workers and the people of Greece stand with Cuba. Through mass demonstrations and other solidarity initiatives, they demand an immediate end to the criminal blockade and all unacceptable sanctions, as well as Cuba’s removal from the shameful list of “state sponsors of terrorism”.
Hands off Cuba! Cuba is not, and never has been, alone!"
