A resounding message of solidarity was sent from Athens and dozens of cities across the country by the people, workers, young people, and people of all ages to the heroic Palestinian people fighting a battle of life and death on Sunday, August 24, at rallies organized by PAME.

"We stand with those who are fighting for life, justice, and freedom," emphasized Valsamos Syrigos, general secretary of the Federation of Construction Workers, in his speech, adding "The Palestinian people are proving that if a people is determined, even barefoot, it can stand upto the most murderous machine in the world and manage to resist and hold on its homeland for two years."

The rally in Athens was attended by Dimitris Koutsoubas, General Secretary of the CC of the KKE, who said: "It is unacceptable for the Greek government to support the genocide and starvation of the Palestinian people by supporting a war criminal along with its allies. It must stop now, immediately, and cease all cooperation with this murderous state. A free Palestinian state within the 1967 borders must be recognized, based on the unanimous decision of the Greek Parliament in 2015."
