The Minister of State, Makis Voridis, spoke to SKAI about the situation in SYRIZA and the politically historic “fall” of Kasselakis.

“I have not painted them black about the situation of SYRIZA. In SYRIZA, they believe that they have entered a liquidation process, but they are misreading the reasons. They believe that they are in a process of liquidation because Stefanos Kasselakis is there and they believe that the ouster of Kasselakis is the solution. But Kasselakis was there as a consequence, a result of the crisis, not as a cause,” he said.

“Now the entire expectation of the society is on Kyriakos Mitsotakis and the government, because there is no alternative plan but there is no arrogance. We receive their strict criticism, which is connected to the concentration of their expectation”, the Minister of State emphasized.

Regarding Mitsotakis statements to the TIF

Answering the question about the increased cost of living and the accuracy that worries society, Makis Voridis said that “we were elected with a specific pre-election program. We have said that our main ambition and our main bet is to increase income and wider convergence. This will be implemented over a period of three years. Until then we won’t be looking at the ceiling, we’ve already raised the minimum wage.”

“There has been a series of interventions and there is a de-escalation of the accuracy and the prices of the rents” emphasized the Minister of State, referring to the announcements of the Prime Minister in TIF about the “My Home” program.
