Nikos Androulakis criticized both the Prime Minister and Alexis Tsipras how “they are very similar in their position vis-à-vis him and PASOK” and accused them of cynicism and lack of shame
From the stage of the TEF, in Vellideio, which was filled tonight with executives and friends of PASOK-Movement for Change, Nikos Androulakis he declared from the beginning of his speech that “the country can have an alternative proposal of power!” And Reliable and progressive. A social democratic government” and emphasized: “”The dilemma of the next elections is not “Mitsotakis or chaos” but: Democratic Overthrow or Tolerance of Regime and injustice!».
Nikos Androulakis criticized both the prime minister and Alexis Tsipras how “they are very similar in their position against him and PASOK” and accused them of cynicism and lack of shame. “They are so similar. They are able to say the same and the opposite without shame. Because they have a common passion. The passion for power.
They are united by cynicism. Monitoring, instrumentalization of justice, ballot referendums”.
According to Nikos Androulakis “the country must change the page and this is the responsibility of the Democratic Party. We have a responsibility to embrace the daily anxieties of the Greek people. To turn the despair that injustice gives rise to, into hope. We will not become anger managers. We have a responsibility for the country to function as a normal European state”.
Mr. Androulakis was applauded by the hundreds of PASOK executives when he responded to the prime minister for what he said that any governmental cooperation of the other parties without the ND constitutes a monstrosity. He specifically emphasized:
“Have you heard of the defection monstrosity of ’65?
Remember ’89 and the special court?
The monstrosity of the anti-memorandum mockery front that you set up together with SYRIZA to wash away the responsibilities of the New Democracy?
All this was aimed at our faction.
They are etched in our political DNA.
You go to great lengths to alter history, but there is historical memory.
We did not star in any teratogenesis.
You were the aggressor and we were the victim.
That is why we are the Democratic Party of the country.
We don’t play games with the institutions and the rule of law.”
He went on to say that the slogan “Consistency – Continuity – Stability”, touted by the prime minister from the TIF podium, actually means “Inconsistency – regression – instability”.
“We are experiencing the complete destabilization and moral discredit of the “staff” state of Mr. Mitsotakis. A completely centralized, closed and opaque system of control and division of power in the Maximos Palace. Mr. Mitsotakis’ “everything in the light” has now turned into “everything in the dark”, referring to his surveillance by the EYP and explained that if he accepted Mr. Mitsotakis’ proposal, he would be illegal. He claimed that his file was destroyed so that there would be no evidence of an attempt to hold PASOK hostage. “We knew about the ‘big brother’ but it didn’t even cross our minds that we would find ourselves being listened to by the ‘great Nephew’ on behalf of the ‘great Uncle’!” It’s a pity that Orwell is not alive to rewrite his book”, he noted and was categorical that he will not consider such practices as “normality”.
“The faction that founded democracy in the country does not consent, does not negotiate, does not accept the return to dark times.
The king is naked.
And on top of his desperation, he deploys sprinkled scenarios about the co-government of programmatically disparate parties to reinforce the “Mitsotakis the chaos” dilemma”, underlined Mr. Mitsotakis.
The president of PASOK-KINAL made a special reference to Turkey, where he said that Turkey’s European perspective is a chimera, calling on the Greek government to make a leading contribution to the new architecture of Europe-Turkey relations.
“We cannot miss the arms embargo. It does not make sense for the European countries, our partners, to continue arming Turkey. Also, after the Cypriot elections, the dialogue for the resolution of the Cyprus issue should begin on the basis of international law and the resolutions of the UN Security Council.
THE Erdogan it should not be left on a dead end.
International law is Greece’s great weapon”, stressed Mr. Androulakis.
He proposed a brave reform program in the institutions, the state, the political system, moving in two directions: Strengthening responsibility, accountability and transparency, efficiency
The president of PASOK-Movement for Change set specific national targets for which he described the main axes of the program that will be presented soon and they concern: a new production model, full rights and dignity in the field of work, a social state that will face the biggest national problem, Demographics.
Regarding social housing, he spoke about retroactive announcements and “in this matter I am really glad that they followed me carefully and came to our policy”, as he said.
Nikos Androulakis spoke about a Public, Social Insurance System, which guarantees dignity for all citizens, with the establishment of a decent guaranteed income for the low-pensioners with the restoration of a new form of EKAS, in the strengthening and radical reform of the National Social Security System to cope with the new era, for Public and Free Education where he formulated specific proposals.
He made special reference to a completely different tax system, which will end tax populism.
Regarding Thessaloniki and its problems, Mr. Androulakis emphasized that a new development plan is needed that will make it an economic hub for Northern Greece and the wider Balkan region. To be an open and not closed city to the changes taking place in the wider region.
He mentioned as necessary infrastructure projects such as the completion and upgrading of railway connections with neighboring states, the modernization of the port, the revival of its industrial area and the creation of modern freight hubs, which are indicative of some of the absolutely necessary interventions.
Anti-flood projects are also needed as the recent disasters have shown, and systematic protection of the ecosystems of Sheikh Sou and Thermaikos.
“It is now more than ever required to build with the democratic citizens, an unbreakable social front of victory and radical change.
For the dignity and advancement of every Greek woman and every Greek man.
Homeland deserves more. Together we can and will succeed”, concluded Mr. Androulakis.
