Central Committee in New Left – Tomorrow will be voted on the two proposals
On two fronts appears to be divided the New leftas the vision of the party’s course seems not to be common.
Reportedly, two proposals were submitted to the Central Committee:
1) The first by the President Alexis Haritsiwho proposed building popular and political front, even defining the steps and conditions
2) The second suggestion was filed by the Gabriel Sakellaridiswho stressed that the new left should walk on its own.
Tomorrow there will be voting for the two proposals.
According to reports, in his speech to the party’s Central Committee, Alexis Haritsis, the roadmap of his proposal includes:
· Co -organize:
The next time with public events, discussions and workshops, with invitation to other cutting -edge parties.
· Invitation to the forces of the People’s Front – and to social organizations – for the creation of joint program processing groups.
· Coordinated coordination of parliamentary groups for joint action in Parliament.
· Coordination of action in social sites and social mobilizations.
· Ascension, together with other political and social forces, initiative for peace.
Alexis Haritsis reportedly stressed that “I cannot advance the course and evolution of the project. We are
Here to evaluate the course, discuss, remodel the tactic. Through dialogue and common mobilization, the dynamics it will develop, it will be evaluated whether it can lead to what a folk front wants to be: a constituency of autonomous shapes on a programming basis. A unity within the difference. “
And he added: “They should respond to a principle with those who respond. Become a first decisive step that will mark the start of a creation of a
Pole. Because I firmly believe that we have to start from somewhere. And I also believe that a first step can also act as a pressure lever. To create mobility in party formations and society. And others follow. ”
Gabriel Sakellaridis, for his part, said in his presentation:
“SYRIZA is now the only political force that stands positively in a prospect of a” popular front “type through its public placements. But the People’s Front with the aim of setting up a competitive force towards the Mitsotakis government, cannot be understood as the cooperation of the new left exclusively with SYRIZA. A popular front requires serious processes. The goal is primarily to organize the popular resistance to the existing. It may be an alternative government solution but also in this case it must be effective, provide solutions, otherwise the rise of the far -right is not cut off. Quick movements and exclusive partnerships do not ensure the first or second requirement. “
And continued:
“SYRIZA remains a party with low penetration into the electorate, cut off from society and a political discourse that stumbles between a left -wing rhetoric and a average political line, trying to satisfy all potential electoral audiences. The party’s positions on the country’s equipment programs, its fault in the need to tax the rich and the need to recover from the public strategic sectors of the economy, certify its rapid evolution after the September 2023 in -party elections. The party’s public positioning is still pending for the reasons he considers that he was strategically defeated in the 2023 elections. His interpretation and responsibility for the Kasselakis period is still pending, a period that has contributed decisively to the depreciation of the left as a whole. These are not symptoms. They are structural characteristics of a policy perception that in the name of the stability of the party narrows its social utility as a party of the Left.
The pressures on the creation of a joint parliamentary group with SYRIZA and the electoral partnership have recently been intensified. These pressures reflect this perception of what is political and overlook the main: its content. We should reverse the discussion. We do not concern us at this stage the commitment to SYRIZA’s plan and its own internal contradictions.
We are concerned with the programmatic discussion in the left and how it will get rid of the disrespect.
To be clean: A hasty and jerk cooperation does not serve neither the reconstruction of the Left nor the conditions for the creation of competitive power in the Mitsotakis government. It even involves the risk of total depreciation of the Left and the New Left.
The new Left does not back down from its original positioning for the need for unity and creation. The way to create the objective conditions in terms of dignity and realistic political impact passes through the strengthening of our party. Against the scenarios of liquidation, we must insist on the possibility of a party that will talk and express the general demand for the overthrow of its right -wing policy. “
