Communist Party in Denmark (Danish: Kommunistisk Parti i Danmark) was a communist party in Denmark.
History
At the
Unity talks with DKP and KP
The KPiD was one of four active
These unity talks resumed after the Unity List adopted several resolutions in which the party accepted Denmark's membership of NATO and the EU, which is unacceptable to both the DKP and KPiD. The KPiD temporarily dropped it's demand that the DKP would prohibit dual membership with Unity List, in order for the merger to go ahead.[5] In september of 2023, KPiD merged (described by both parties as a 'reunion') with DKP.[6]
Leadership
Betty Frydensbjerg Carlsson was the party leader from the party's founding until the party congress in May 2015, where she chose to step down. Arne Cheller was elected as the new leader. After being unanimously reelected to the national leadership at the 12th congress in 2018. However, chairman Arne Cheller and other members of the national leadership resigned from the party only a few days earlier. The reason behind the resignation was a conflict on the unification process between the KPiD and two other communist parties. Cheller and the others then joined the Communist Party (KP). Rikke Frydensbjerg Carlsson was subsequently elected as the new leader of the party.
The party published the monthly newspaper Kommunist.
