Evangelos Antonaros announced his resignation as a member of SYRIZA-PS, shortly after yesterday’s dramatic party conference which led to the third split of SYRIZA within a year, by posting on his personal Facebook account.

“3 minutes ago I submitted my resignation as a member of SYRIZA PS to the coordinator of OM Artemisa where I belong. I am not willing to “company” even for a minute with the party coup plotters who today completed their planned crime against the democratic processes”, he says characteristically.

The work of the Conference continues today at 11.00 am with speeches by delegates.

The four nominations of Apostolos Gletsos, Pavlos Polakis, Sokratis Famellou and Nikolas Farandouris were approved yesterday with a large majority.

His post in detail

“3 minutes ago I submitted my resignation as a member of SYRIZA PS to the coordinator of OM Artemisa where I belong. I am not willing to “go along” for a minute with the party coup plotters who today completed their planned crime against the democratic process.

They are miserable and deplorable, writing today the blackest pages of the post-colonial era. I remain steadfastly committed to the principles of democracy and progress for the benefit of society as a whole. We look ahead with optimism for the future!”
