Mr. Kasselakis pointed out that “tomorrow is also an important day for the soul of our country after the crime of Tempe a year ago”. “Everyone who feels frustrated by the lack of rule of law should and justice in our country, to stand by these families and that there can be justice and with political responsibility as soon as possible”, he emphasized.

Concerning in the issues of ADEDY, noted that “we all know that the world of work is plagued by a tremendous precision after years of inflation, after years of no wage increases.” He stressed that there are many measures the government needs to take precisely “starting from electricity and food cartels”. Write down that SYRIZA supports “the horizontal increase of salaries in the State by 10% and the restoration of the 13th and 14th salary, as it is in the private sector”. “We are at your disposal to promote your issues parliamentaryly as we can, we think that what you are asking is from fair to self-evident,” he commented.

He even said that “there must be proper operation of SEPE so that there is control at work, fewer accidents”, as well as increasing the allowances of the heavy and unhealthy and including more categories in them. “We must finally staff the Public, it is not possible for the Public to be understaffed and the Greek taxpayer first of all not to have high quality services and secondly, where there is a loss due to understaffing, to pay for the broken ones”. “So,” he continued, “it is important for our finances to staff the State properly and efficiently and at the same time to be able to have a regime of dignity with labor rights so that the State can be competitive”. He said that “it is a job to serve your nation and work for the state should be able to be done on terms that are just.”

From his side the president of ADEDY, Dimitris Bratis, he mentioned, among other things, that Mr. Kasselakis included in his introductory statement “everything that is in the assertive context of our tomorrow’s strike”. “Tomorrow marks one year since the crime, as we call it, of Tempe. Last year ADEDY took the initiative and made a strike mobilization where hundreds of thousands of people took to the streets and unfortunately to this day the responsibilities have not been attributed”, he said. He noted that “the whole world of work tomorrow, public and private sector is on the way to say ‘we can’t take it anymore precisely, we want real increases'”. “To be able not to live with dignity but to survive anymore, because living with dignity has unfortunately been lost a long time ago,” he commented.

He also talked about issue of understaffing of the Statewhile he also mentioned that the government considers privatization to be the onlywhen throughout the world there is deprivatization”. He commented that “the communication narrative of the government that it is giving increases to the State for the first time after 14 years is a lie. Mr. Hatzidakis, the Minister of Finance is lying. The increases in the public sector are in the order of 38 to 40 euros per month, that is, ridiculous, mockery. He himself talks about 1,425 euros net per year and this is a big lie.”
