Olympia Teligioridou submitted her resignation during the meeting of the Political Secretariat of SYRIZA.

Ms. Teligioridou, who is close to Stefanos Kasselakis, resigned as a member of the Political Secretariat and a member of the Central Committee of the party, denouncing irregularities during the conduct of the SYRIZA conference, citing the discredit of the party function.

Ms. Teligioridou’s letter of resignation in detail:

During today’s meeting of the P.G. I was positioned for the reason that led me to my decision to resign as a member of the PG and a member of the KE.

-The worthlessness of the party function of SYRIZA-PS was unfortunately confirmed in a strange way at the extraordinary Congress. After the authoritarian blocking of individual delegates or even entire organizations in the previous days, came last Friday the blocking of entrance of elected delegates to the Gazi live site.

– The climax of the anti-democratic process was that even those who reached the interior were of two categories. In one VIP room, the elite of the party and in another room the lautzikos without any communication between them.

-“Door” from the entrance to the Conference I also ate 3 times. Then, along with 2 other PG members we attempted to enter the venue through the infamous back door. The whole time I was walking down the three floors of the spiral garage to get to an elevator I felt like a rat.

-At the Congress, the basic terms and rules of operation of SYRIZA-PS as I knew it until recently were not observed.

-Today a video was released where in the “VIP room” dialogues disparaging the functioning of the party and the excluded delegates can be heard between members of the leadership of the party and of the KOES. Beneath the circumstances.

-Some may be satisfied with all this. But I never in my life believed that “the end justifies the means”.

– I don’t want to be involved in all this.

– I am resigning as a member of the P.G. and member of K.E. of SYRIZA-PS.
