Communist Party of Greece to boycott Zelensky's address to parliament
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky speaks from Kyiv, Ukraine, Tuesday night, March 29, 2022

THE Communist Party of Greece (KKE) is boycotting next month’s special parliamentary session due to be addressed by Ukrainian President Volodomyr Zelensky.

It said that he “represents a reactionary government backed by the US-Nato-EU camp and like Russia is responsible for the drama of the Ukrainian people.”

KKE accused the Ukrainian government for supporting neonazi groups, and said it had persecuted and imprisoned communists and banned the Communist Party of Ukraine.
