[Fotos] Partido Comunista celebró sus 111 años de existencia

The Communist Party of Chile celebrated its 111th anniversary on June 4th, 2021 with a series of events, marches, and statements across the country. The party, founded in 1910, is the oldest political organization in Chile and had a prominent role in socialist and worker movements throughout the 20th century. The celebrations included an online cultural event that gathered artists, musicians, and intellectuals, as well as a parade in Santiago that attracted thousands of supporters. The party’s leaders emphasized the need for unity among left-wing forces in order to face the upcoming presidential elections in November 2021, as well as to push for social and economic reforms. The Communist Party remains a force to be reckoned with in Chilean politics, despite being a minor party in terms of electoral results, due to its historical influence and grassroots activism. The anniversary celebrations showed that the party is still able to mobilize its base and play a relevant role in shaping the political debate in Chile. As Chile prepares for a key moment in its democratic transition, the role of left-wing forces such as the Communist Party will be decisive in determining the country’s future.
