“The situation in SYRIZA is fluid, it has not been formalized yet,” said SYRIZA MP Giorgos Varemenos on the SKAI program ‘SIMERA’ on Wednesday morning.

“It is not a strong opposition, it is a void in political life,” he added.

Asked about whether he himself is going to leave SYRIZA he stated “Nobody wanted to leave SYRIZA, when things take shape, we’ll see. I personally was not in any group and I thought that the trends had exhausted their limits, but now we have reached the other extreme.”

“Stefanos Kasselakis says ‘the piece away’, at that time he was also applauded by the former secretary of SYRIZA and others who were in the trends. What does this mean; that anyone who approaches the president enters the Pool of Siloam?’

“I don’t agree with toxicity”

Asked to comment on the statement of Stefanos Kasselakis about the 37 billion, he made it clear that he does not agree at all with what was heard and at the same time added: “I do not agree with the toxicity, at the moment around the president is a sub-group of a large group of the past which is opposed to some others. The new president has embraced this group, which began to threaten that we would “say one thing and another” and I see now that the president also criticized the 37 billion So I say to those who participated and to the government not to get there, reflection, criticism and self-criticism can be done in other terms. I clearly disagree with what Stefanos Kasselakis said.”

“I don’t believe that politics is over because Mitsotakis came, he brought post-politics, the advisers from America and succeeded in this way. But the ideology is not over either”he emphasized.

“In exile, the Left is patriotic, it has shown it, not in words. From there an elaborate policy can be made on national issues and other issues. It is legal for Mr. Kasselakis to use the term Patriotic Left.”

Finally, regarding the meeting of Gabriel Sakellaridis and Alexis Tsipras in Nea Smyrni, Mr. Varemenos commented: “I like the presence of Mr. Sakellaridis, he showed morals and honesty in 2015. I want to believe that something optimistic will come out of this situation that contains a depression, may this all be ‘birth pangs.'”
