". The MEPs of the Communist Party of Greece will vote against the resolution on the ratification procedures of the Treaty establishing a Constitution for Europe and the communication strategy because its basic aim is to mislead the people of the Member States and to pervert the history of Europe. We disagree with the proposed Constitution or any Constitution of big business and war, in that its aim is the power of the European monopolies, to the detriment of the social and political rights of the working and grass-roots classes. Furthermore, the effort to wipe the anti-Fascist victory from people's memories and to abolish its anniversary on 9 May is revelatory. Let the people forget struggles, let the barbarity and brutality of fascism be played down by wasting the peoples' money at a time when wages, pensions and unemployment benefits are being reduced, social spending is being cut back and the right to permanent, stable employment is becoming a thing of the past. We cannot fail to observe that the resolution makes no mention whatsoever of the need for objective information or even the facility for choice on the part of the people; on the contrary, it emphasises support for the historic importance of the agreement. We shall call on the people to say a resounding no to the European Constitution of the militarisation and repression of Europe, of the dictatorship of big business. We consider it a positive sign that more and more countries are setting up committees to overturn it."@en1
