EU imperialism - now with fascists at the top!
On 20 November, the Italian fascist Raffaele Fitto, member of the fascist party Fratelli d'Italia of the Italian head of government Meloni, was given a key position in the EU Commission. He is to become executive deputy to Commission President Ursula von der Leyen. This means that the EU Commission is moving very far to the right!
This nomination is the result of a despicable haggling over the composition of the future EU Commission. While the EU Commission likes to present itself as the ‘guardian of freedom and democracy’, it is now opening the door wide to fascist forces. The social-democratic group leaders voted in favour of Fitto's appointment against opposition from within their ranks. What was previously a perforated firewall against fascist parties in the European Parliament is now increasingly being replaced by open co-operation with ultra-reactionary and fascist forces.
ICOR Europe has clearly positioned itself against the imperialist alliance in the European elections in spring 2024. Rebellion against the imperialist EU is justified - continues to be a fundamental slogan of the ICOR. The ICOR thus stands against the belligerent policy of armament build-up, the increasing rollback of environmental policy measures, a reactionary and inhuman asylum policy and increasing fascist tendencies. ICOR Europe stands on the side of the working class, which is challenged to vehemently defend itself against the shifting of the crises and burdens of war in hard struggles. Building an anti-fascist united front is the order of the day, especially after the election of the fascist Trump as the next president of the USA!
Strengthen the ICOR - it is needed for practical coordination, cooperation and collaboration in the struggles of the labour movement, the environmental, women's, peace and youth movements. Against the intensified fascist tendency!
Against right-wing development and fascism - socialism!
