Cooperation no only PASOK and SYRIZA in the European elections, but also of people from the democratic progressive space who have privatized frustrated together with independent movements of society, Christos Spirtzis, a member of the Central Committee of the official opposition, claims. Speaking to SKAI and the Misfits warned that otherwise there is a risk that the two poles in the country will be the Right and the Far Right.

PASOK – SYRIZA should be put together on a single ballot in the European elections with a specific agenda. The people will judge whether they approve or disapprove of this cooperation. A rally of the Center-Left is needed, he stressed.

It is our debt. Today we have two parties that want, but do not seem to claim. For this to be possible we should have a big pole after the last results. We had a strategic defeat. From 32% we went to the second election to 17%. “We cannot afford different expressions of the progressive world to be divided.” We must leave the divisions to find a common platform and framework and homogenize pointed out the former SYRIZA minister.

“If we don’t do it organized by the two major parties of the Center-Left, there are two versions: or to take initiatives and to respond to a large base of the Greek people, and even the center-right, because the policies of the Mitsotakis government are not acceptable, as was seen in the elections, especially the self-governing ones. Or will we go the way of Italy and France, that is, the two poles will be the Right and the Extreme Right”. In this context, the executive of SYRIZA requested a dialogue on a programmatic basis in order to agree on the political discourse.

“Troll Jokes”

“Internet trolls are jokes” he stated not. “And I think that if Panos Skourletis or anyone else who wanted to make this kind of criticism should do their own self-criticism. The secretaries of SYRIZA are from the side that participates in the political group (…) If Umbrella has a troll, let Mr. Skourletis tell us.”

Asked about Alexis Tsipras, he commented that “since in my opinion he made the mistake of resigning well he is very cautious.”

“I hope that the deletions do not go ahead and that the tones fall, e.gbecause I disagree vertically horizontally and diagonally in the essence of what is being said and in the way they are said. It is not possible to doubt Stefanos Kasselakis. Is it possible to not accept the result? Dissenters must make their self-criticism public.” “The president of SYRIZA has not been tested, he needs time,” he clarified.

Asked “will you go to the elections with the sign of the sun?” he replied jokingly “I personally would not object at all to go with the sun, it can be red, have 9 rays (…) and be red”.
