Message of AKEL to the XXII Congress of the Communist Party of India

 

XXII  Congress of the Communist Party of India

Message from AKEL – the Progressive Party of the Working People, Cyprus

 

Dear Comrades,

On behalf of AKEL – the Progressive Party of the Working People of Cyprus, accept our fraternal greetings of solidarity and support for your struggles in favour of the working people.

Our two countries share common past of struggles against colonialism and imperialism. These struggles are now timely more than ever since the imperialist aggression is escalating once more in the context of the imperialist contradictions and the capitalist systemic crises.

The working people of India as well as of many other countries are suffering the brutal results of systemic crises of capitalism, with the destruction of the social state and the conquests of the working people.

We feel that particularly in these conditions the existence and work of the Communist Party and class-based trade unions and organisations are of paramount importance.  The Communist and Workers’ Parties of the globe have a major role to play in the struggle to resist austerity policies and imperialism. We are looking forward to the enhancement of the relations of our two Parties in the framework of our cooperation in international level.

Your broad political struggle along with the democratic people of India against the neoliberal policies and of religious extremism are very crucial elements for the benefit of the people of India.

We wish every success to the deliberations of your Congress.

Comradely yours,

THE CENTRAL COMMITTEE OF AKEL
