“We are after the completion of the first phase for SYRIZA’s exit from the crisis. Leaving o Kasselakis I think it is the first step for SYRIZA to get out of the crisis that has been plaguing it for a year,” he said to and in the show “Tithes» with them Giannis Pittaras and George Grigoriadisthe member of the Political Secretariat of the party Yannis Ragousis.

“SYRIZA’s biggest problem was Kasselakis. His choices, the perception and the logic with which he tried to lead the party prove that he failed,” he added.

Also, Mr. Ragousis emphasized that “the part that supports him is very limited compared to what supported him before the motion of censure. A very large part of the 163 are very important officials of SYRIZA who voted for him and worked for his election”.

Referring to her subject dismissal of Kasselakis from the position of party presidentMr. Ragousis noted that “there we have a new wave of former supporters of Mr. Kasselakis who agreed with us that he has indeed lost his position”.

“We are constantly seeing a decline in SYRIZA executives who either support Mr. Kasselakis or support his views. What I recommend is that his potential candidacy be rejected,” he added.

Mr. Ragousis argued that “what Mr. Kasselakis must do immediately if he wants Mr. Kasselakis not to further damage the party of which he was president until yesterday is for him and his supporters to stop the Trumpian rhetoric, which not only is she alien to the left. These are damaging to SYRIZA and more broadly to the progressive faction.”
