Update from the 8th Congress of the Anarchist Political Organization - Federation of Collectives

The 8th Congress of the Anarchist Political Organization - Federation of Collectives was held in Thessaloniki on June 13 and 14. During the congress, the member groups had the opportunity to renew their reading of the political situation through their positions, as announced on the first day and during the open process of the Congress, which was also open to observer groups. The analytical statements converged on the approach that monitors the ever-increasing war preparation in the Western world amid the escalation of military conflicts on various fronts such as that in Ukraine, after the Russian invasion, the corresponding one in the Middle East after the imperialist US-Israeli raid against Iran, but also the continuation of the genocide of the Palestinian people in Gaza by the state of Israel and the massacre of the Sudanese people who revolted in 2018 to overthrow the dictatorial regime. A number of other issues such as the position of the Greek state, the strategy of the country's bourgeoisie and the network of alliances that is being formed were incorporated as cutting edges of the analyses in the texts of the groups, which are listed in full at the end of this statement.
The situation within the country was also analyzed in detail, emphasizing both the new round of the attack of the dominant state-capitalist institutionalization against the plebeian strata with both the sharp increase in the cost of living, the reduction of labor and social rights and the intensification of state repression at all levels, amid the retreat and weakening of collective social resistance.
The conference process was completed with closed discussions between the member groups during which an assessment was made of their action and the development of social and class resistance during the previous period in their places of operation, as well as an assessment of the Federation's organs. An important part of this part of the discussion was the collective assessment of the organization by the A.P.O. in Athens in April 2026 of the 13th Congress of the International of Anarchist Federations. The experience was evaluated particularly positively, as the organization of the Congress for the first time in Greece on the one hand managed to bring together dozens of comrades from various countries in Europe and Latin America, while at the same time it gave the comrades of APO the opportunity to participate in mass terms in all the processes, events and discussions, several of which proved effective, expressing common views of the organizations in texts published by the IFA and concerning a coherent position against war and state-capital totalitarianism, as well as solidarity with the people of Cuba and the rebels in Sudan.
On the second and last day of the Conference, the groups dealt with current issues and the coordination of actions for the coming period, such as the organization of the 8th Libertarian Festival of Social, Class & Internationalist Solidarity, which was organized in Athens at the end of June 2026. A product of the Organization's procedures was the publication of a second edition of its Statutes, which formed the basis on which the federal political organization of anarchists was built, as expressed for ten years through the lines of the A.P.O.
The next plenary process was planned with the next Conference taking place in the winter in Athens.
