The post-election scenarios were put on the carpet, once again, in another interview with Yanis Varoufakis, this time on the main bulletin of ERT1.

To the question if, after the elections, parties invite MeRA25-Alliance for the Break, in a pre-election dialogue in view of the next election contest, then what would be its conditions, G. Varoufakis answered as follows: “A pre-election dialogue needs a comfortable time .

After May 21st we’ll have a week of cockfighting…and then we’re straight into another election season. Unfortunately, the window of a serious political dialogue – what we have been asking for two years now – was closed on the initiative of Mr. Tsipras, Mr. Androulakis, and Mr. Koutsoubas. So, unfortunately, the conditions do not exist to do what we have an obligation towards the citizens, if it is to co-govern. Let’s sit sober around a table without prerequisites and discuss what we need to discuss.”

At the same time, he repeated his categorical opposition to the granting of a tolerance vote.

At another point in the interview, he was also asked about the incident in Kypseli. Where, during the Prime Minister’s tour, Kyriakos Mitsotakis extended his hand to an executive of MeRA25-Alliance for Breakup, she, however, refused to greet him. On this, its leader noted: “This is one of the times when our party’s executives surpassed its leadership. I would have given my hand, but our executive put the glasses on me.”

While, as he later asserted, “on the same walk of the Prime Minister, Mr. Mitsotakis’ personal security tackled, pushed down Dimitris Sgouros, an executive of MeRA25-Alliance for Breakup, and then a police officer in plainclothes arrested him. This hypocrisy of Mr. Mitsotakis on the one hand to pretend to be politically civilized and on the other hand to have unleashed a police democracy not only on our members, but also on the students, the trade unionists, on the whole people… at some point I am glad that the executive he put the glasses on me, who am a bit more bourgeois.”

Finally, when asked about the Turkish elections – it is clarified that the interview was recorded -, G. Varoufakis reminded “our compatriots who may be happy at the idea of ​​Erdogan leaving, that it is very possible that the one who comes will be much worse.

The Kemalists have a long tradition of anti-Hellenism, they were behind the invasion of Cyprus […] this does not mean that we are safe with Erdogan.” And, he proposed again his proposal to convene an international regional conference of the countries of the Eastern Mediterranean, with an exclusive topic on the agenda, the demarcation of maritime zones. In the case, on the other hand, that Ankara does not agree to sit at the same table with Nicosia, he responded by saying: “Let it do so, it will lose international support.”
