The Marxist–Leninist Communist Party of Greece (
.History
M-L KKE originates in the
Ikaria.[1]
The group, which has published its own journal, Laikos Dromos, was led from its foundation by Isaac Jordanidis, who had been a functionary within the KKE.Maoist line as a result.[3] A delegation from the party travelled to Beijing in 1977 where they held a meeting with Li Xiannian.[3]
In the
A/synechia participated together, receiving 5,866 votes. In the legislative election of 2004, M-L KKE participated alone, receiving 4,846 votes. In the 2007 legislative election
, M-L KKE received 8,088 votes (0.11%).
On 16 March 2012, spurred by the ongoing
Greek financial crisis, M-L KKE and KKE M-L announced that they would jointly contest elections as part of the Popular Resistance – Left Anti-Imperialist Cooperation (Λαϊκή Αντίσταση – Αριστερή Αντιμπεριαλιστική Συνεργασία), distancing themselves both from the traditional Communist Party of Greece (KKE) and the leftist Syriza coalition.[1][2]
Newspaper
M-L KKE publishes the Laikos Dromos (Λαϊκός Δρόμος, "People's Path") newspaper, founded in December 1967 as OMLE's newspaper.[1][2]
