Its chairman PASOK He has repeatedly stated that it is open to bilateral enlargement with personalities who believe in the political plan of the opposition party.

The flirtation between the two sides began with the vote on the part of his Thessaloniki MP Tasos Giannitsi For the Presidency of the Republic. Rania Thraskia supported PASOK’s choice in all four votes, so she was closer to Harilaou Trikoupi.

Everything shows that after today’s meeting will be the 32nd Member of the PASOK parliamentary group. The information, of course, indicates that it will not be the only attachment to the parliamentary group, as it follows the integration of the Peter PappaAlso, also an independent MP who had been elected to the colors of SYRIZA. This will mean that in the next national elections, PASOK will have two strong nominations on its ballots in the First Thessaloniki, which is also the aim of Harilaou Trikoupis, to strengthen the party’s presence in northern Greece.

Many believe that the climate created by PASOK in recent days has accelerated procedures in a Harilaou Trikoupi operation to change the agenda and the lights turning to expanding rather than introversion.

‘2027: The next day for progressive change’ – a renewed left

At the Cultural Center of the Municipality of Athens, they made a Sunday appointment for progressive change faces from all the “trends” of the center -left. PASOK, SYRIZA, New Left, the “WORLD” movement exchanged views and concerns about the next day.

The event was attended by the leaders of PASOK/ KINAL Kostas Skandalidis, Philippos Sachinidis, Christos Protopapas, Marinos Skandamis.

From SYRIZA are George Vassiliadis, Symeon Kedikoglou, Kostas Zachariadis, Tryfon Alexiadis.

From the New Left Sia Anagnostopoulou, Nikos Bistis and Takis Katsaros.

From the “world” Petros Kokkalis and Lefteris Papayannakis.

Theodoros Margaritis-All the progressive forces to open a serious program dialogue for change.

Opening the event, Theodoros Margaritis, secretary of the “Renewal Left”, said that in PASOK/KINAL we unanimously have the line of autonomy, our own social democratic program. However, this does not prevent areas of understanding of the other democratic parties of the opposition, where it is possible. Much more is unnecessary to have an image and quarrel between the center -left and the Left that facilitates the government and causes frustration in the democratic world. So we call on all progressive forces to open a serious programmatic dialogue for change. And from the bottom – which is the most important – and above to have practical results in changing the correlations and the course of the political system.

Stamatis Malelis -The microfalism and the worship of the totem do not give way out

Stamatis Malelis, who co -ordinated the debate, commented that the title of the event could well be the next step in progressive change with the prevalence of the progressive faction. “The elements, and not only the polls, show a significant decline in New Democracy but also a stagnation so as not to say the fall of the progressive arc forces. So what all these forces should do to rule again in the political become. Because here is the big problem. It is difficult to respond to a time when in Europe the far -right stream is growing with many allies. But in Greece, progressive parties do not seem to spend their best time. Everywhere you hear that Mitsotakis is playing without an opponent. But is that right? Great concentrations for Tempi show something else. At least the anxiety of a world that is not convenient with today’s system. But what is not partially expressed among the citizens? The parties themselves are to blame.

Is something else to blame? However, microfalism and the worship of the totem do not give way. Brave decisions are made to see because while ND is not reinforced by the center -left parties. What is the solution. A first conversation will take place today to answer these complex questions. That are not solved by the particular projection of the EGO ”.

Xenophon Kontiadis-Scheduled a partnership of progressive opposition parties

Xenophon Kontiadis said that we are in front of a prolonged crisis of democracy. The spy and Tempi case revealed a deep state and a super -centered system of governance boxed in the enclosure of the so -called Staff State, which have weakened all institutional counterbalances: parliament, independent authorities, media, justice. The fragmentation of the party system, especially in the progressive area, and the weakening of the New Democracy, are arguments in favor of the proposal we had made shortly after the European elections that a pluralistic pole of power is needed with the partnership of the progressive opposition parties. A joint program and a common candidate for prime minister.

Marilena Koppa- Strategic Plan and Programming

Marilena Koppa criticized PASOK/ KINAL and SYRIZA for enclosing and repeating past slogans that do not give answers to today’s reality and those who concern the citizens, especially the younger generation. The fragmentation of democratic opposition forces does not help.

On the contrary, a strategic plan and programmatic understanding is needed, he said.

Gavrilis Lampatos-The Progressive Layout to propose the necessity of progressive modernization

Gavrilis Lampatos, performing historical parallels, referred to PASOK’s traumatic relationship with the broader strata of Greek society. The absence of

A essential debate within these issues is a key factor in the inability of a substantial electoral recovery. He emphasized the need for a political narrative in which there will be a dialectical relationship between past, present and future. He then mentioned the need to deepen his programmatic discourse on education. Finally, the progressive lineup was needed to propose the necessity of the progressive modernization and durability of the country, especially in today’s unstable geopolitical environment.

Stefanos Parastatidis- The greatest enemy of politics is heterosexual

Stefanos Parastatidis said that it is not enough to define the forehead, we have already done so. ”The biggest enemy of politics is heterosexual. Politics is not a sums of forces, hasty agreements, cynical cooperation in terms of power. Politics are ideas. From there everything starts. Ideas that form currents, they create demands, and demands are looking for expressors. To move in our autonomy, starting to find them first with ourselves. Before looking for disagreements with the “others” to see ours. Let’s talk to our ideas, to coexist, to discuss, to dare common initiatives without selfishness and enclosure. This is the road and let’s look rough, uphill, slow while the juncture is pushing. But he is the only one who can lead to the glade he will show, though who we can walk together. “

George Siakandaris- The confidence crisis turns the far right into a unique interlocutor of popular feelings

George Siakandaris has focused on the reasons that in recent years have been leading the forces of social democracy and the wider Left to great defeats and an unprecedented crisis of trust. This crisis of trust turns the far -right into a unique interlocutor of popular feelings. While the abolition of the left-right not only does not only reinforce democracies, but on the contrary it puts dynamites on their foundations. The speaker then criticized apolitical voluntarism that today puts the demand for the center -left with the Left.

Theodoros Tsekos-Guardian Center Left, not a left-wing protest

Theodoros Tsekos said that progressive policy is now necessary because despite the constant adjustments of progressive forces, technological changes and revolutions, the basic differentiation of favored and non -favored, winners and defeated by the dominant model of production Timeless. To pursue a progressive policy requires a ruling center-left, not a left-wing protest, whose values-ideas-policies must (a) form an alternative proposal to the existing ideological- political framework of governance and (b) fall into the “Government Window “That is, to be realistic and widely accepted.
