The annual meeting of the Communist Party of Spain called “Fiesta PCE” was held in Madrid, Rossa Primavera News Agency’s correspondent informs on October 3.
The gathering of representatives of the Communist Party of Spain and other leftist parties and movements from all regions took place from September 29 to October 1 in the suburbs of Madrid in Rivas-Vaciamadrid. Regional leftist associations from all over the country and representatives from Palestine, Cuba and several other countries also participated.
The event in 2023 was dedicated to the fight against neo-Nazism, which has already penetrated and firmly established itself in Europe. Ukraine has become its main springboard.
Another important topic discussed at the meeting was the urgent need to stop the rampant interference of the United States in the internal affairs of countries around the world.
The event ended with a performance by the band “Banda Bassotti”. The audience unfurl the Victory Banner, Soviet flags, banners of Russia, Lugansk and Donetsk People’s Republics. A banner with the inscription “Stop financing the terrorist regime of Ukraine” was installed on the stage.
According to the organizers, the festival was visited by about 4 thousand people.
The Communist Party of Spain has previously opposed Nazism in Ukraine and raised this topic at its festivals since 2014, when a coup took place in Kiev and the pro-Nazi government seized power. In the aftermath, Spanish anti-fascists were among the first to travel to Donbass as volunteers and journalists.
The meeting of the Communist Party of Spain has a long tradition. It began to be celebrated in 1977, two years after the end of Francisco Franco’s dictatorship.
