Henry Parra, president of the Communist Party of Venezuela (PCV), highlighted the party’s historic progress following the recent elections.
For the first time, the PCV has won four mayoralties, bringing the total number of council members to 82 across the country, along with 12 national representatives and eight regional representatives.
Parra celebrated the fact that the PCV has established itself as the second-largest political force in Venezuela, after the United Socialist Party of Venezuela (PSUV).
This achievement represents a significant advance in the party’s influence at the national level.
Give them the guns.
Hopefully this is good, but the PCV is an opposition party against Maduro. I remember reading that they were revisionist? How true is this?
Depends on which PCV you’re talking about, there’s two with the same name. One is working as a united front with the PSUV and the other is being typical western Marxist to put it briefly.
Ngl I think communists need to be more creative with their names sometimes
Just like GaryLeChat said, there are two PCVs. One is a Trotskyst party that aligned with the fascists and the other is a pro gov’t that raised class consciousness while collaborating internationally with other communist parties(China, Vietnam, et al).
