An amendment concerning “offensive reports of collusion” was filed by Thanasis Theocharopoulos and Costas Zachariadis, members of the Central Committee of SYRIZA PS, in order for it to be included in the decision of the Central Committee.

“The draft policy decision is a text that is both politically and programmatically forward-looking. Unfortunately, former president Stefanos Kasselakis does not support it, as it seems, based on what he supported in the video yesterday (for a progressive space, entanglement, etc.)”, Thanasis Theocharopoulos reportedly said during his appointment to the SYRIZA Executive Committee.

He noted that “offensive reports about coups, diversions, juntas, entanglements have nothing to do with SYRIZA and cannot be heard here”. According to information, he together with Kostas Zachariadis filed an amendment on the issue of these offensive references in order to be included in the decision of the KE.

In particular, Mr. Theocharopoulos said that “toxicity now has a name: Stefanos Kasselakis. He accuses the SYRIZA party and the SYRIZA executives who have fought against the entanglement and have been fought by the entanglement. Shame”. “Accusations were also heard today that the SYRIZA party is not democratic – P.S. Is it possible? The only one who actually questioned this with his actions is Stefanos Kasselakis who had proceeded with character assassination tactics, targeting, building internal enemies, etc. Stefanos Kasselakis accuses K.E. for her decisions, which was the same until the summer when she was voting on his proposals. When she voted against him, she was delegitimized! Such a perception of Democracy,” he said. He argued that “all of this cannot be left unanswered collectively by the party”, proposing “that’s why we decide today the following with an addition to today’s decision: ‘Insulting reports against executives, members and the party itself for allegedly serving the plans of the entanglement , are unacceptable and reprehensible. They injure the unity of the party, insult the personality of the members and are contrary to the statutory and fundamental principles of SYRIZA – Progressive Alliance.”

Mr. Thehoaropoulos emphasized that “SYRIZA – PS must and will move forward”, adding that “the grassroots will vote against Stefanos Kasselakis and elect new leadership. Away from toxicity and introversion. And with two goals the strengthening of SYRIZA – PS and the address for a great progressive alliance”.
