Political Resolution of the XVI PCP Congress (Excerpts from Chapter I and Chapter IV)

Chapter I  - International Situacion

Chapter IV - The PCP, asserting its identity, increasing its influence

The International Situation and the international activity of the Party

Comrades,

The last four years have, in essence, confirmed the analyses of our 15th. Congress in relation to the characterization of the world evolution.

Instability and disorder are established in international relations with the attempt by imperialism to impose a "new order" hegemonized by USA and big business.

Opening speech by Carlos Carvalhas - XVI Congress of the Portuguese Communist Party

Dear Friends and Comrades,

Dear foreign and national guests,

First of all I wish to thank you for your presence and I specially want to greet all the comrade delegates and, through you, to greet the whole party collective that you represent and the populations of the regions you come from.

The situation in Palestine

The present situation in the Palestinian territories of Gaza, Cisjordania and Jerusalem is extremely serious. The brutal repression of the Palestinian people's fair struggle, ensued after the provoking "visit" of Ariel Sharon to the esplanade of the mosques in East Jerusalem, already caused more then a hundred of dead and thousands of wounded people. The vast majority of them are young people, Palestinians and Israeli Arabs.

Palestine Urgent solidarity!

The situation in Palestine is extremely serious. From Jerusalem to Netzarin, from Hebron to Nazareth, a Palestinian rebellion wave raised up which Ehud Barak Government is drowning in blood. For the first time, Intifada spreads in Israel's own heart to Palestinian Israeli citizens.
