We believe that the European Union (EU) aligns with the interests of capital, promoting measures that favour monopolies, capital concentration, and centralization. It is the union of european capital. The EU is an imperialist economic, political, and military bloc, contrary to the interests of the working class and the popular strata.
It reinforces characteristics such as militarism, authoritarianism, and state repression while limiting sovereign rights. Our assessment identifies the EU as the European imperialist center, supporting aggressive plans against peoples and aligning itself with the USA and NATO.
Although the EU managed to conceal its genuinely anti-people nature behind a facade of prosperity for a significant period, the past decades have undeniably exposed the reality. The so-called “prosperity” and apparent benefits for the workers and the masses were essentially bait, luring them into a trap that intensified attacks on their rights, especially after 1990 across the entire EU.
In the current context, what does “prosperity” mean? It translates to the erosion of stable daily working hours, widespread unemployment, underemployment, and increased flexibility, meager pensions leading to deprivation, the disintegration of public health systems and rising costs for the working class and the popular strata.
The credibility of the “European project” is undermined by economic crises, the mishandling of the corona pandemic as well as the rising living costs by inept politicians. We state that the class struggle against the EU, governments and the anti-labour directives that impose a working jungle must be intensified under these developments!
A simplified Euro-skepticism which may lead to illusions and result in nationalism and souverainism is not the solution for the working class. The only way out for the working class is socialism-communism. We believe in an alternative trajectory for the people. The vision of a different Europe, emphasizing the well-being of the populace, social advancement, democratic freedoms, fair collaboration, peace, and socialism, is illuminated by the ongoing struggles of the working class.
We believe in the need of a resolute fight against any form of bourgeois administration within the exploitative system, whether liberal or social-democratic. This endeavor necessitates a steadfast opposition to opportunism, which manifests as the influence of bourgeois ideology on the labour movement. It cannot be achieved without actively opposing, resisting, and disobeying the reactionary capitalist structure of the EU and challenging all the anti-popular directives of the European Commission. Our fight is directed against capitalist exploitation, aiming for the establishment of socialism-communism. Ultimately the main internationalist task of every Communist Party consists of serious and persistent work in its own country as a contribution to the international, worldwide struggle.
We are dedicated to addressing the current needs of workers and the popular strata by uniting and fortifying the labour and trade union movements, along with other popular movements. Our focus is on directing these efforts towards a collective struggle against monopolies, capitalism, as well as the EU and NATO.
