Lasted 15-18 days. 10 days ago I had gone to PASOK to discuss, to see the issues what they are. It was postponed, it became a great Tuesday, the memorandum was presented for the positions I had to present. The decision taken is that I had 10 days ahead of me to explain that phrase.

There are different opinions of these approximation of three positions, but which are in the coordinates. If the other person can see you as something else, that’s his own problem.

I have supported presidents who unfortunately for them have never been elected as presidents. I was with George Papandreou, Mr. Doukas, they were not elected, but I stayed in PASOK and supported my party. And I think all the world left in PASOK despite internal perceptions, remains, “ Continue.
