KPP’s publications acquitted of charges of ‘promoting totalitarianism’

‘Brzask’ magazine andCommunist Party of Poland-KPP’s website are acquitted of charges of ‘promoting totalitarian system’

ICP, 23 January 2019

On January 18, the regional court in Dąbrowa Górnicza acquitted the members of the editorial board of Brzask magazine and the website of the Communist Party of Poland (KPP) of charges of „promoting totalitarian system”. The trial was launched three years ago, following the Law and Justice Party’s (PiS) ascension to power, with the ultimate aim of outlawing the KPP. The acquittal decision informs that the accusation was too general and fragmentary and asserts that the promotion of communism does not equate promotion of a totalitarian system.


In its statement released following the verdict, the KPP defined the prosecution as an element of the anti-communist campaign launched by state authorities aimed at illegalizing the Party. It is declared that a 30-year-long attempt by the authorities to liquidate achievements of the Peoples’ Poland and remove from social memory remembrance about everything associated with communism, has intensified in last three years.

The statement ends as follows:„This verdict is a big success of our party, but by no means the end of our struggle. We must be ready to repel the next attacks. Communist Party of Poland thanks all comrades and parties that showed their solidarity with our party and contributed to the fight against repressions.“

Коммунистической партии Польши!

Уважаемые товарищи!

Социалисты Литвы с удовлетворением восприняли известие об оправдательном судебном решение в отношении вашей партии. Попытки обвинить польских коммунистов в «публичной пропаганде фашистского или иного тоталитарного государственного режима“ провалились. Даже буржуазный суд вынужден был констатировать, что коммунистическую идеологию невозможно поставить на одну доску с идеологией и политикой тоталитаризма.

Циничные и классово мотивированные потуги правой власти законодательно запретить деятельность польских коммунистов не удались. Это, конечно, не означает, что такие попытки не буду предприниматься в дальнейшем. Антикоммунизм, как известно, основной признак фашизма. И фашизация политической жизни многих европейских стран – это очевидная тенденция.

Мы, социалисты Литвы, выражаем солидарность с вашей борьбой и поздравляем вас с этой хотя и локальной, но очень важной для всего коммунистического, социалистического и рабочего движения победой!

Communist Party of Poland!


Dear friends!


Socialists of Lithuania welcomed the news that the court decided the right decision for yours Party. An attempt to blame the communists of Poland for “public outreach fascism or other totalitarian nationals regime” collapsed. Even a bourgeois law had to concede, that the ideology of communist cannot be compared with ideology of totalitarian regime.


Cinics and classical motivated attempts the rights government to interdict in low the work of Prty of Communist is failed. It does not mean that such attempts tests will not be in the future. Anti-communism, as we know, is basic indication of fascism. And the fascism politics of many countries of Europe – this is obvious tendency.


We, Socialists of Lithuania, are solidarity with your fight and congratulations on the important victory of all communists, socialists and labors movement.
