SKP organisation

Does the SKP have a central committee? Considering that they claim to continue the numbering of the CPSU congresses, it might be interesting to know the rest of their organization. 202.89.155.120 (talk) 05:18, 31 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

They have "Council of the UCP-CPSU" as their head organ.--79.111.147.56 (talk) 16:46, 20 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

An interesting source for a prospective editor

From http://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%A1%D0%9A%D0%9F-%D0%9A%D0%9F%D0%A0%D0%A4 :

March, Luke The Communist Party In Post-Soviet Russia. — Manchester, U.K.: Manchester University Press, 2002. — 288 с. — ISBN 0-7190-6044-3

In particular, page 36 states "[the UCP-CPSU] was eventually founded in March 1993 by elements of the old CPSU Central Committee and Prigarin's Union of Communists and and headed by former CPSU CC secretary Oleg Shenin". 118.90.89.88 (talk) 13:14, 2 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Estonia

While it really was so, that the Communist Party of Estonia (1990) was banned in 1991, after the coup attempt, can someone please clarify, what was the relation of the remnants of that party to the SKP-KPSS. It says in the party's article that the remnants split in 2001. If so, that could be clarified in this list. 88.196.188.238 (talk) 13:43, 28 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

CPSU (Communist Party of Soviet Union, NLKP in Estonian) was banned 23rd August 1991. All the funds and property were issued to be confiscated. Estonian Democratic Labour Party (EDTP) was recognised as a legal successor of Communist Party of Estonia (EKP), so actually EKP wasn't banned. Only the apparatus of Soviet Occupation, i.e. CPSU in Estonia, was banned. Links: 1 and 2 --Smörre (talk) 23:20, 1 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
