On the way to elections, Kyriakos Mitsotakis and Alexis Tsipras prematurely turn their election campaign into a personal “bra de fer” from a distance, continuing from their tours and election speeches the frontal conflict that began after the rejection of the SYRIZA motion of no confidence in the Parliament and unfolding their pre-planned strategies on the way to the polls.
The new conflict between the two gladiators started from Marathon where the prime minister toured and continued in Peristeri, where the president of SYRIZA launched his pre-election rallies, with Alexis Tsipras’s initiative to distance his party from the Parliament votes.
An attitude that Kyriakos Mitsotakis described as “sad and unacceptable” referring to “false communication tricks” with which Mr. Tsipras openly despises the parliament and the constitutional order.
After all, Megaro Maximos believes that SYRIZA chose this path because “it has nothing to say to the citizens” and it has no solutions and answers to the problems that the citizens face, nor a vision and a plan for the country.
“Let someone tell him that we have a parliamentary democracy and not a “pedestrian” democracy,” said the Prime Minister from Marathon, calling on Alexis Tsipras to get serious.
The aim of the government faction throughout the pre-election period remaining until the polls is to highlight the gap that separates “Piraeus from Koumoundourou”, the government paths of the ND and SYRIZA and to provoke a comparison between politicians and actions of the two governments.
A central position in the dilemmas that the governing faction will develop will be, as already announced, the “Mitsotakis or Tsipras” dilemma.
A dilemma that the prime minister had raised very early on from the TIF platform, in September, when he said that the central dilemma of the next elections will be “Mitsotakis or Tsipras”, noting that “before us another government has preceded us, Mr. Tsipras. So the Mitsotakis or Tsipras dilemma is something that the citizen understands”.
On the other hand, Alexis Tsipras from the Andreas Papandreou Municipal Gymnasium, where he essentially opened the pre-election curtain of SYRIZA, raised his own dilemma for the upcoming elections by proposing “Democracy or Mitsotakis”.
The president of SYRIZA repeated everything he denounced to the prime minister and the government, formulated his party’s proposals, reaffirmed that he does not intend to form a minority government and above all, attacked PASOK without naming it, speaking of an “unhistorical two-front struggle”, while he insisted in the abstention of SYRIZA from the votes in the Parliament, in order, as he said, not to “legitimize the majority of the deviation. We will not legitimize a morally and politically degraded government”, he argued.
Accusations that provoked the reaction of the government representative who returned the shots noting that “The political existence of Mr. Tsipras is identified with lies, slander, anger, misinformation, meanness and toxicity.
With defiant ease and arrogance, he ordered everything to everyone, not caring that it would lead to the destruction of what our people have achieved in the last three years, with many efforts and sacrifices, and would lead our society and state directly to disadvantage, lag and anomaly.
“For 15 years, as the leader of SYRIZA, Mr. Tsipras remains unrepentant, incorrigible and identified with insults and fairy tales” said Yannis Oikonomou, setting the stage for the pre-election dialogue that will prevail between the two great gladiators.
