“Every day that passes will show who is really doing political work and what they mean, who are really dealing with the situation in political terms and who really want Kyriakos Mitsotakis to lose,” said the representative of SYRIZA-PS. Gifts Augeri, in an interview with “To Kokkino” r/s. “This is SYRIZA-Progressive Alliance, this is its goal” he added and noted: “What does it mean to be a SYRIZA Progressive Alliance? To be with the world, with the people and with their problems.”

Asked about the attitude of the outgoing MPs by SYRIZA-PS, regarding the bill for servicers, answered: “11, rather 10, are called to respond to this, because one of these deputies did not vote affirmatively in favor of these provisions. Questions remain. I don’t think it has become clear to the world why they took this stance. And there are thousands, hundreds of thousands, of households and entrepreneurs affected by the legislation in question. Their attitude is questionable. Why do you say that you vote against a bill in principle and then vote “present” on provisions contrary to the European directive on measures to protect the first residence and Swiss franc borrowers?”

After stating that “the government served the servicers”, he noted: “SYRIZA-Progressive Alliance was clear and categorical. “No” on principle, “no” – we vote against the individual provisions as well. Provisions that the majority of the opposition, and other opposition parties, with the exception of the 10 deputies, voted against.

Regarding the upcoming European elections and the bar set by the president of SYRIZA-PS Stefanos Kasselakis, the party’s press representative replied: “When someone fights a battle, he fights to win his opponent, and the opponent of SYRIZA-PS is the ND of Mr. Mitsotakis. But alas if that is all it does. We are clearly fighting a battle and we have been doing it since the day after the national elections.”

Regarding the opinion poll findings, Dora Avgeri noted: “The opinion polls are a picture of the moment, a very bad moment and situation that we are trying to overcome. I would tell you that it is a situation that was not created by the responsibility of those who stayed, but was created mainly by the responsibility of those who left. And no one understands why… The issue is how the time was used by those who, instead of opposing and striking to the right, actually struck those who sent them to the Parliament”.

Regarding the departures from SYRIZA, he said: “It is true that there are some areas in Attica that have more departures, but I tell you that in most regions and regions of the country there are few departures of members and very, very few departures from the prefectural committees.”

Finally, to a question about the attitude of the former president of SYRIZA, Alexis TsiprasDora Avgeri stated that “at the beginning of June 2019, Alexis Tsipras gave me the honorary invitation to be on the ballot of SYRIZA-Progressive Alliance in the 2nd district of Thessaloniki” pointing out that “this was the reason why I entered this process , because I understood what he was saying and what he meant when he talked about the expansion and opening of SYRIZA” and added:

“Well, we are still today, December 5, in the same place. Me, Alexis Tsipras, and experienced and seasoned executives, but also younger ones, such as for example the new president of SYRIZA, Stefanos Kasselakis. The invitation we extend today is an invitation to unity, strength and victory.”
