“We are not interested in a scenario of a government of losers” repeated today on SKAI 100.3 the head of the Interior Department of SYRIZA and candidate for parliament Kostas Zachariadis.

He stated that the party’s position is absolutely clear.

“For there to be political change in the country, a social dynamic and a political burden are needed. The goal is for the government that will be elected to be able to go until May 22, 2027,” Mr. Zachariadis emphasized.

“Tomorrow morning o Alexis Tsipras he will meet with the German chancellor. We have been talking with the European Social Democracy for many years and Alexis Tsipras is a candidate for prime minister. I wish that in the same good atmosphere that this Soltz-Tsipras meeting will have, we would have a communication and conversation with PASOK in the same atmosphere the day after the elections,” he added.

Asked about what Mr. Tsakalotos said yesterday to ERT, who wondered why a government that has gathered 48% is a government of losers, Mr. Zachariadis said that “the one who cuts the thread first has gathered the largest popular verdict and has an advantage, he has the coordination of movements.”

“That’s what we want,” emphasized Mr. Zachariadis and added: “However, I am disturbed by this discussion, which is becoming mathematical. I believe that first the people will vote and then the first person with a position of responsibility will be able to impose the change. The leader of the first party must also have the responsibility.”

Asked what Alexis Tsipras will do if he receives the second mandate to form a government, Mr. Zachariadis estimated that he will remain true to what he has already said, that he will not join a government of losers.
