His footprint Andrea Papandreou it is everywhere visible, even today28 years since death of the unrepeatable leader of the democratic faction, says o Nikos Androulakis and this is seen, as he points out “in the hospitals and health centers of the National Health Servicewho kept our people standing in the pandemic.

In gender equality legislation, at a time when gender-based violence is on the rise.

In the legacy of the unguarded foreign policy, in an unstable geopolitical environment, which the “protectors” give and take.

In his project for popular participation and the overthrow of all kinds of establishments, in a period when abstinence goes hand in hand with the frustration of citizens due to the rapid worsening of inequalities”.

The current president of PASOK notes that the founder of the party was “the radical socialist leader, the different politician, in whom the people saw their own man, Andreas, surrounded him with trust and they marched together until the end”.

He emphasizes how “the work of the governments of the Panhellenic Socialist Movement left an indelible mark on Postcolonial Greece.

He implemented national reconciliation and upward social mobility. Reforms were implemented, which for the first time took place in Greece and touched from the resident of Athens to the last village of the country”.

Mr. Androulakis also underlines that the contribution of Andreas Papandreou “both with the Change, in 1981, and after 1993, was decisive for the path towards a Europe of cohesion, with the North-South convergence.

He served the Europe of the peoples and of solidarity against all kinds of “directorates”. His speech also counted on the international stage. Along with other great political leaders, he undertook historic initiatives on Palestinian, Middle East and nuclear disarmament that still retain their timeless message.”

“Andreas served another model of politics, beyond the empty suits of power. That is why he remains the first in the memory of the Greek people”, concludes Nikos Androulakis.
