For one of the most difficult meetings of his 20-year career, Mr SYRIZA this Saturday. The Central Committee may take critical decisions that will even concern the issue of the candidacy of Stefanos Kasselakis for the presidency of the party. The developments in Koumoundourou are more than dynamic and the climate between the former president and the “87” is warlike. These are two different worlds that show that they can hardly keep up with each other until the congress or even further, until the elections.

The extrajudicial letter sent by Stefanos Kasselakis to the party he wants to lead, his signature as president of SYRIZA and his leak where are you from it was the last straw for him. Even Olga Gerovasili, who yesterday morning on SKAI declared against the punitive statutory measures, at yesterday’s meeting of the Political Secretariat suggested the removal of the former president: “He should be referred with the removal request to the Central Committee. There should be an extraordinary convocation of the body on the subject of how we respond to this”. This was followed by “group fire” from the executives of “87” who thought that the former president crossed any red line. Everything is now up in the air with the two “camps” making it clear that they cannot stand “cohabitation” any longer.

THE Kostas Zachariadis he said: “We cannot allow Stefanos Kasselakis to dissolve SYRIZA. If he wants to dissolve him, he should try to do it outside SYRIZA. He cannot be a member of the party, he cannot be a presidential candidate. No one has ever sent an extrajudicial party to a party they want to lead.” Katerina Notopoulou took the baton: “K.E. must be convened. for rejection of his candidacy, as he does not respect statutory principles and decisions, his only goal is to dissolve SYRIZA. To be referred to the ethics committee with the request for deletion”. Yannis Ragousis emphasized during the body’s meeting that “at the meeting of the Central Committee – at the latest – all the candidate presidents must take a position on these unprecedented phenomena of Trumpism and criminalization of party life”.

THE Thanassis Theocharopoulos stated that “K.E. he had set as a condition the respect of the collective bodies and became extrajudicial to the collective bodies of the party in the capacity of president. It’s never happened before.” Panos Rigas, Olympia Teligioridou, Pavlos Polakis and Rena Dourou, according to information, abstained from the Central Committee meeting. Theodora Tzakri voted no on the whole decision of the body.

The climate in Political Secretariat it was controversial from the beginning pre-economy what will happen on Saturday. Theodora Tzakri called for the resignation of Rania Svigou due to the leak of Stefanos Kasselakis’ whereabouts: “The Party Secretary is not a party leader. It is an institution,” he emphasized. “No” to the deletion of Kasselakis, whom he called to take back the court, said Pavlos Polakis, coming to Koumoundourou.

The decision of the Political Secretariat stated: “Leaks from anywhere related to any candidate, have no meaning, are absolutely condemnable and have nothing to do with the Secretary of the KE, nor with the PG and the party organs. Any claim to the contrary is intended to create artificial tension, and does not correspond to reality. The act of extrajudicial protest against the party’s organs by the former president is unprecedented and is returned as unacceptable.”
