Venezuela's President Nicolas Maduro
COMMUNISTS have expressed solidarity with their sister party in Venezuela against what they described as political attacks and oppression in the run-up to local elections on November 21.
In an open letter, more than 25 communist parties from around the world condemned the decision of Venezuela’s national electoral council to block Communist Party of Venezuela (PCV) and Popular Revolutionary Alternative candidates in the municipalities of Caracas and Macanao and in the state of Guaira.
Branding the decision “completely objectionable and unjustifiable,” they accused the Venezuelan government of launching anti-communist attacks and called on it to reverse its stance.
