His polling rise PASOK in the second place it already allows to Charilaou Trikoupi to make plans for the future. The steady lead over him SYRIZA it is the element that presents the greatest interest from the measurements of the companies that pulse the reactions of public opinion. The old bipartisanship of the period 1981-2009 is difficult to revive due to the absolute hegemony of the New Democracy, however in PASOK they see that in the new political setting there are important opportunities that must be exploited.

“If PASOK has a strong mandate in the European elections, I will take all the initiatives needed to create this progressive force that will be able to face the New Democracy victoriously in the next national elections,” Nikos Androulakis told OPEN. The head of Harilaou Trikoupi added that this will be done “on social terms. A call will be made to all progressive forces. I strongly disagree with party bonding. PASOK is not going to become part of the problem that is called SYRIZA today.”

Nikos Androulakis takes a step further and describes the way in which it will be possible to create a front against New Democracy. How is this going to be done; Using the example of the Municipality of Athens. PASOK is the first among the parties of the center-left as leader will lead a formation that will be the only possible condition to defeat Kyriakos Mitsotakis.

This was also supported by George Papandreou after the triumph in the largest municipality of the country.

All this after June 9th. The autonomous course is not discussed, it is something non-negotiable. In Harilaou Trikoupi they avoid falling into the percentage trap. It is clear that the higher the number that the “counter” will write and the difference from SYRIZA in the European elections, the stronger the boost the party will get. Undoubtedly, he will be the catalyst to lead the field and be able to challenge the dominance of Kyriakos Mitsotakis. The message they wish to send from the “green camp” is that the people should not vote in five months from today to elect a strong protest party, but for the prospect of an alternative government.

Nikos Androulakis made his mark by declaring that “my generation deserves, with the experiences of the last decade, with the empathy of respect for the country’s fiscal situation, with knowledge of the geopolitical conditions, to rule the country and I aspire for this generation to rule the country and to give another perspective and another direction. I can’t deny that ambition.”

Answer this whole narrative to proposal by Zachariadis, Ragousis, Theocharopoulos SYRIZA to move closer to the center “through Brussels»? The truth is that in Koumoundourou they do not have the best feelings for PASOK, as they do not forget that the possibility of cooperation through simple analogy was rejected from the first moment. How and if they will “calm down the passions” will only be shown by the ballot box of the European elections. In SYRIZA, they believe that the climate can be reversed and they can regain the “upper hand”.
