The alarm bell for the “tragic” situation of synergy that prevails in public transport rang Alexis Tsipras in a meeting he had with the union of employees in the OASA and its subsidiaries.
As the president of SYRIZA stressed, while the basic principle of the measures against the coronavirus is the principle of non-synchronization, in the MMM and especially in the buses the situation is “tragic” for the last two years.
“It is inconceivable for the past two years that no moves have been made to increase the fleet and to reduce the synchronicity,” Al. Tsipras said characteristically, not only to protect the citizens but also the employees on the buses.
He then directly blamed the ND government for canceling the ongoing tender for the supply of 750 buses immediately after taking power in 2019. As he stated, “this government has a peculiarity, because it and its ministers want to set the conditions of every competition – and the wise man I think “.
“The result is that we have been in a competition for two years now that should have been completed and is not being completed. “If they had left the competition of the previous government, today we would have half of the 750 buses and in the next period we would receive the other half.” pandemic.
“I want to ring the alarm bell,” said the president of SYRIZA – Progressive Alliance and noted that immediate measures must be taken.
“Do not listen to nonsense, the pandemic is not a pandemic of the unvaccinated, it concerns us all. Unfortunately there are dozens of people who have been vaccinated, and it will not end here. And with a health system that has collapsed. We must all protect society as a whole, ourselves, our employees, our citizens. “The message I want to send is that measures must be taken here and now in the MMM, for new buses, to stop the synchronization of citizens who want to move and have no financial means and are stacked like sardines on top of each other,” he concluded. Al. Tsipras.
