Georgiadis: Mr. Tsipras’s proposal for a progressive government is a nightmare scenario – Alexiadis: Simple proportionality is our fixed position
“If Yanis Varoufakis were to enter a government again, I don’t know if they would call it progressive or a government of fools, Greece would be destroyed in seconds. As soon as the investors saw Yanis in the government, all the investments in Greece would disappear”, said the outgoing Minister of Development Adonis Georgiadis to SKAI and the show “Kalimera” with George Autias.
“Mr. Tsipras’s proposal for progressive governance is a nightmare scenario for Greece. The May 21 elections, due to simple proportionality, do not allow the ND to lose even half a vote. It is not enough for ND to be first, they must be first by such a margin that they do not have the political legitimacy to make the “government of the losers” the next day. If this government is formed, with the sole aim of changing the electoral law to a simple proportional one, Greece will be trapped in an endless cycle of political instability, where all economic progress will go to waste. Don’t risk Greece and don’t believe them,” added Mr. Georgiadis.
For his part, the candidate of SYRIZA in the Second Piraeus Tryfon Alexiadis replied: “We cannot cooperate with parties that have programmatic differences. We will build a progressive government with any parties. For me, the only possible government partner is PASOK. The KKE and MeRA 25 programmatically are not ready to take this step.”
“We have a very clear program of what the next government wants to do. Simple analog is our constant position. It is the fairest system because it ensures all voters the same voting weight”, added Mr. Alexiadis.
