Aleksandar Banjanac Named General Secretary of New Communist Party of Yugoslavia [En]

Dear Comrades,

We would like to inform you the 5th Extraordinary Congress of the New Communist Party of Yugoslavia was held on January 14. 2017. in Belgrade.

Due to the importance of the moment, due to the fact that the 2017. is anniversary year that will mark the centenary of the Great October Socialist Revolution, and that it will be an election year in Serbia, in which presidential elections will certainly be organized, and perhaps also the parliamentary, Party organs decided to organize instead of the Annual Party Conference, 5th Extraordinary Congress, with the basic goal to make further improvements in organizational terms of the functioning of our Party, in order to respond to the new tasks that lies ahead of us.

The 5th Extraordinary Congress elected a 39 members of the Central Committee and a 19 members of Political bureau of our party. The 5th Extraordinary Congress also elected comrade Aleksandar Banjanac for the position of the new General Secretary of NKPJ.

Workers, youth, the Serbian people can count on the NKPJ during these times of injustice and uncertainty.

NKPJ will fulfil its internationalist role, tasks and duties by supporting the struggle of workers and peoples for peace and solidarity, for a new society that is free of capitalist exploitation and oppression, for socialism/communism.

Comradely greetings!

Marijan Kubik

Member of the CC,
