[20.09.2007] CP of Greece
To the Prime Minister of Hungary, Mr Ferenc Gyurcsany
CC: Speaker of the National Assembly, Mrs Dr. Szili, Katalin
Embassy of Hungary in Athens
The Communist Party of Greece vehemently condemns the political prosecution of the leadership of the Hungarian Communist Workers' Party.
The trial that begins tomorrow in the Hungarian City Szekesfehervar violates elementary democratic and civil rights and constitutes an outrageous state interference in the internal democracy of a legal political party. It disputes the citizens' right to express their opinion freely and is an attempt to liquidate a significant political force in Hungary. It represents a serious attack on democratic liberties of concern to all progressive people. It constitutes one more step in the anti-communist anti-democratic onslaught that we witness across Europe, which among other things feeds the most reactionary elements and trends.
We demand from the Hungarian authorities to guarantee the constitutional and civil rights and freedoms of all citizens; to guarantee the freedom of opinion and expression and the freedom of association and to organize; to stop immediately the prosecution of the leadership of the Hungarian Communist Workers' Party and to refrain from any intervention that violates its internal life and sovereignty.
We demand all measures that prohibit or restrict the political activity of the communists to be immediately revoked.
