For yesterday’s surprise decision Stefanou Kasselakis for his removal from the SYRIZA spoke, among others, to and the “Mismatched” The Thanassis Theocharopoulos.

Initially, Mr. Theocharopoulos reminded that it is not the first time that he has been targeted by the leadership of SYRIZA, as “twelve hours after the internal party procedures ended, I was informed then as a replacement that I was stepping down as director of the Parliamentary Group”.

“The president apologized then, but the same is happening now: a week after European elections and while no meeting of the Central Committee has taken place, I was informed of the termination of my cooperation with KO for political reasons, for my positions on the Center-Left”, he pointed out and presented as the main political reasons for his removal on the one hand the his proposal for an internal referendum on the integration of SYRIZA into the wider body of the Center Lefton the other hand his criticism of the election result of the Eurocalp.

“It seems that Mr. Kasselakis has a “weakness” for me”

“This opinion of mine for the formation of a single progressive space was also mentioned yesterday by Nikos Pappas, but Mr. Kasselakis removed me, it seems to me that he has a “weakness”, Thanasis Theocharopoulos then noted, while adding that he considers it unthinkable that they should also remove to remain in the scientific potential of the party executives and former parliamentarians based on whether or not their views are in line with the leadership, characterizing it as “unheard of for a democratic political party something like this”.

“Yesterday when I was informed, I was talking with Mr. Zaev on the first day of the conference about Alexis Tsipras Institute. I never negotiated my ideas, I always believed that the nomenclature should be resolved, that’s why I voted for the Prespa Agreement. Therefore, SYRIZA cannot currently be managed as a company, Mr. Kasselakis is not the owner, the competent bodies must be convened immediately. Theocharopoulos.
