[01] KKE leader addresses workers in Piraeus
The working people have nothing to gain from Thursday's debate ahead of
the September 16 general elections, nor could they, or should they,
determine their stance from the image that the political party leaders
presented during the televised debate, Communist Party of Greece (KKE)
leader Aleka Papariga said Wednesday morning, speaking to workers in
Piraeus municipality.
Papariga stressed that the criterion for the vote to be case was "life,
not words". "It (the criterion) is the everyday routine, the standard
of living, work, income, pension, education, health, the natural,
intellectual and cultural environment, it is Greece's policy in the
Balkans, the Middle East, Europe and everywhere," she said.
Papariga said that in order to correctly weight the vote, the entire
past 20 years must be examined.
"For 20 years now, the KKE has been steadily making the correct
prognosis, contributing to the organisation of the struggles and, above
all, believes that the right of the worker is the law. It is from this
position that we face the problems of the working people and the other
popular strata of the city and the countryside," she added.
