Overview

[edit]
Office of the PCP, Asunción, 2013.

After the Cuban Revolution, the PCP began an armed struggle. Its armed wing was the United National Liberation Front (FULNA). It was defeated in 1963.[1] In 1967, the party split, and the pro-China wing formed the Paraguayan Communist Party (independent). The general secretary of the PCP is Najeeb Amado.

The PCP was a founding member of the United Left (IU) in 2002, but later withdrew in 2003. However, a fraction of the PCP, the Movimiento por la Recuperación Democrática del Partido Comunista Paraguayo, chose to continue to work within IU. The withdrawal was motivated by differences over electoral strategy and candidacy.

On September 20, 2004, a communist party of Paraguay (PC-Paragauay) was founded by faction that split from the PCP, with the secretary general being Miguel Flores.[2][3]

During the 2008 presidential election, PCP supported the candidate of the Patriotic Alliance for Change, Fernando Lugo, who won the election.

PCP publishes Adelante (Forward).[4]
