The countdown to the European elections in SYRIZA was opened by Msand Stefanos Kasselakis, as he has announced, wishes to differentiate himself from the past. The immediate future Isyriza’s platform is expected to open in which those who wish will be able to nominate themselves for the party’s Eurolist. It is a matter of days, say Koumundourou executives, the activation of the relevant platform, as the last technical details remain to be settled.

The information states that there will also be a video call by Stefanos Kasselakis to those who wish to join the SYRIZA Eurolist. The Political Secretariat will determine the details of the process which will include an internal referendum by the members on who will ultimately receive the anointing. A committee is expected to be formed to evaluate the nominations. It is recalled that this specific procedure is not provided for by the statute, in Koumoundourou. Nevertheless, it is estimated that no problem will arise, as this is a choice that promotes democratic processes in the party. According to information, in his speech at the closing of the meeting of the Central Committee, Mr. Kasselakis said that “the preliminary procedure of the European ballot is a cross-cutting proposal, it will help the people to approach SYRIZA and get to know us”. For the European ballot of SYRIZA, the only ones who are certain at the moment are the current MEPs Kostas Arvanitis and Elena Kountoura.

The engines have been turned on for good lately in the official opposition. It is very likely that in the next few hours there will be announcements concerning, among other things, the “think tank” for education, but also for other sectors.
