An attempt to escape from the triple pressure that Mr. Tsipras receives and which, in the end, will lead him to single-digit percentages, is SYRIZA’s move to submit a motion of censure, stressed the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Mr. Spilios Libanos, in his speech on the debate. in Parliament.
Mr. Libanos described this triple pressure as follows:
First, he is dragged in consecutive defeats by Kyriakos Mitsotakis and loses with a double score in the suitability for prime minister.
Secondly, it receives internal party fire for the deconstruction of the traditions of the priesthood of the Left.
Thirdly, the wider political reality, which shows that SYRIZA is stuck and now its only goal is to succeed in overpowering PASOK and its new leader Mr. Androulakis.
Mr. Libanos accused SYRIZA that it feeds on denial and unrest and that its only goal is the seizure of power, the overthrow of the state and the “joints of power” expressed by the threats that the second time the Left will be different .
And on the other hand, Mr. Libanos stressed, there is “the Government of Kyriakos Mitsotakis that tries, gives battles, loses some, but fights and when something goes wrong knows how to apologize… He sees a government that for 2.5 years produces work. It upsets the country that you destroyed. It reduces taxes, which you launched. It attracts investment, which you expelled. It protects the national borders, as it did in Evros, when you declared that the sea has no borders. It restricts illegal immigration flows, which you called welcome sunbathing. “
Referring to the Ministry of Rural Development and Food, Mr. Libanos stressed that the current government paid in 2021 an amount exceeding 1 billion euros for compensation from natural disasters and the pandemic and proceeded to a comparison of the actions of the ND government with the SYRIZA governments. He mentioned:
We, the government of ND, kept ELGA standing, which you handed over to us at the edge of the cliff! It is Kyriakos Mitsotakis, the prime minister who supported ELGA, giving him the cash that kept him upright. Not Mr. Tsipras. Last year alone, the tidy ELGA paid 300 million in compensation immediately and effectively within a few months. When you paid in 3 and 4 years the compensations and you were bothering our farmers. It was you who when you left in 2019 did not even pay the damages of 2017 that we paid now in December.
We are the Government that legislated again the return of the excise tax on oil, the coverage of 80% of the adjustment clause, the subsidy to 50% of the agricultural tariff. We are here and we will support and further.
You are the Government that abolished the return of the excise tax, which dissolved the PPC, accumulating debts.
It is the government of ND that in 2021 set a record in the absorption of European funds from the Rural Development Program and the EPalth.
We paid 740 million from the RDP this year, with 94% new memberships, amid covid, when you in your best year managed a meager 47.07%.
We are the ones who ran EPALTH, paying € 158,535,660, with € 85,570,411 new memberships only in 2021, when your government almost threw the program on the rocks with zero absorption of funds.
It is the government of ND that implements the largest infrastructure projects since the 1950s with Water 2.0, with 22 PPP projects amounting to 4.6 billion.
When you, sweaty and for the eyes of the farmers, included in the PAA projects of 300 million € just 1 week before the elections that you lost …
We are the government that put the knife to the bone, carrying out controls to safeguard our products for the benefit of producers.
We activated the committees of the Ministry, opening files that remained in your drawers for days.
We imposed dozens of fines, when you had not imposed a single one !! Fines of € 250,000 and € 160,000 when you did not impose a single euro !! The result is tangible. Sheep milk from € 0.80 went to € 1.30. The producer gains and begins to feel safe seeing that the state controls and administers justice.
We are the Government that invests in agricultural education and training, with the establishment of 6 DIEK, with the Young Farmers program that we doubled the amount of aid for the newcomer, with the agricultural advice program, with training of farmers all over the country.
While you were the faction that for 4 years was indifferent to everything, that never announced the agricultural advisors and went to throw 80 million € into the sea.
We are the Government that for the first time created a positive balance for our agricultural products, for two consecutive years, in 2020 and 2021, when you did not even have a strategy to increase sales for our products.
We are the Government that achieved the great success of the new CAP, from where we kept the 19.6 billion of the previous period, when all the other Europeans lose 15% of the money they received.
While you were the Government of the Zournades, of the go back, of Mr. Varoufakis’s dreams and of the unstable European policy. The Government that took risks, that played the dice of the country, that accepted as an alternative the loss of valuable European resources.
In closing, Mr. Libanos described SYRIZA’s motion of censure as a shotgun and added: “However, you sincerely understand our anxiety to remain an OFFICIAL opposition until the elections.”
