STATEMENT
THE
All-RUSSIAN MOVEMENT
“ALTERNATIVY”
EXPRESSES ITS SOLIDARITY
WITH
THE SAVAS MATSAS-MICHAEL!
The
“ALTERNATIVY” movement condemns the unjust initiative to bring
into trial the 3 September 2013 a Greek Marxist intellectual, and
Secretary General of the Workers’ Revolutionary Party (EEK) of
Greece, Savas Michael Matsas. He is being falsely accused of
“disturbing the civic peace” in the events of May 2009. That time
there were huge police pogroms against the immigrants in Athens, in
the neighbourhood of Aghios Panteleimonas, where the “Golden Dawn”
murder squads terrorised the immigrants with the cover and in
coordination of the local police.
At once
in May 2009 the leaders of the “Golden Dawn” Ilias Panagiotaros,
now a member of the Greek Parliament, and Themis Skordeli launched a
lawsuit all the spectrum of the Greek left, from the Communist Party
of Greece(KKE) and SYRIZA to the extra-parliamentary left, ANTARSYA
and EEK, all the immigrant associations, and independent
personalities like the Dean of the National Technical University of
Athens Constantinos Moutzouris( accused to allow the alternative web
site Athens.Indymedia to broadcast from the space in the campus).
The
lawsuit was not relevant until late 2012, after the Greek elections
of May and June 2012, when, the Golden Dawn was catapulted to
Parliament from the margins of political life and the shadow of the
State repressive apparatus. In November 2012, at the day celebrated
nationally for decades now as the anniversary of the 1973 youth
revolt in the Athens National Technical University(Polytechnic)
against the military dictatorship of the colonels, the Greek Police,
after receiving orders from the judiciary, started interrogations
for all the accused in the Nazi lawsuit of 2009. In June 2013, from
the dozens of the accused in the legal action of 2009, and
interrogated in 2012, only
Savas Michael(Sabetai) Matsas
of the EEK was called to trial on September 3, 2013, together with
the former Dean C. Moutzouris.
WE DO NOT RECOGNIZE
THE TRUTHNESS OF CAUSES TO CALL ON TRIAL OUR COMRADE, REAL COMMUNIS,
SAVAS MATSAS-MICHAEL!
WE DEMAND TO DROP
ALL CHARGES AGAINST HIM!
SOLIDARITY
WITH SAVAS MATSAS-MICHAEL
