The president of SYRIZA-PS, Stefanos Kasselakis, expresses his unequivocal support for the mayor of Athens against “the dishonest attack he is receiving”, in a post on social media.

In his post he states: “In the Parliament, Mr. Voridis took up the defense of the cover-up of Tempi. Now, Messrs. Georgiadis and Pleuris are taking on the vulgar attack against the Mayor of Athens Haris Doukas. And here with editing, just like in Tempi. It is , it seems, now the usual method of an extreme right-wing ND, which has nothing to do with the average voter. Transfers from LAOS are the last willing “paid guns” of the Mitsotakis regime”.

“The vulgar attack on Haris Doukas will fall on deaf ears,” New Left said in a statement.

In her statement she claims: “Since the first day of taking office, the mayor of Athens, Haris Doukas, has been in the government’s crosshairs. The last episode in this series is the cutting of his position during a municipal council. It seems that the technique of editing emerges as a basic tool of the overt and underground mechanisms of the Right. They suffer in vain”.

It is recalled that the Minister of Health, Adonis Georgiadis, had earlier launched an attack against Haris Doukas on the occasion of the phrase of the last “globe cop” at a municipal council meeting.

Mr. Georgiadis wrote in his post “Athens is returning to the era of decline, at the mercy of the extreme Left”.

Subsequently, in the same post, he emphasizes that “Haris Doukas was voted for by an unholy Alliance of the Far Left, PASOK and supporters of Ilias Kasidiaris who wanted Bakoyiannis and New Democracy to be defeated”, adding that “now one after the other, with they take and “cry” about Athens and how it got involved with the Mayor who was elected for the next 5 years…”.
