The responsibility of the progressive forces “to dwell against the prevalence of the law of the powerful who is trying to impose the far -right”, describes in the special issue of Turning Points by Euro2day.gr and the New York Times, former Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras.

Since he notes that “the left/center -left – center -right/right -wing balance on which the political systems of the West were based began to dissolve, he argues that the responsibility of democratic and, above all, progressive forces is historical” and explains:: Firstwe must dwell on the prevalence of the law of the powerful in international relations and to insist on international law. If we accept the law of the powerful internationally, then we accept it at all levels by opening the way to the far -right cynicism.

Strengthening the role of billionaires in politics in the standards of Trump – Musk. There must be a clear message from the EU. In the US that our relationships can only go on the basis of mutual respect and without interventions in our interior.

This, among other things, requires support of our Authorities, but also recognizing our mistakes in order not to be repeated. The struggle for international law is a struggle primarily for peace, recession and diplomacy, not war. And the European post -war Republic was built in this context. It is unacceptable, then, today the attempt to peace be monopolized by the far -right forces.

In this context, the EU He has to pioneer in peace in Ukraine, as well as building a new security architecture that includes Russia – as proposed by European Council President Antonio Costa – no matter how difficult it is with a force that has invaded neighboring countries.

We recall that, two years after the Turkish invasion of Cyprus, Constantine Karamanlis and Makarios were negotiating with the Turkish prime ministers. In the same direction we must move in relation to peace in Palestine, the end of Israeli businesses and the incredible humanitarian disaster we are watching, with a solution of two states on the basis of UN decisions.

Secondthe European leadership for a new plan for European integration, based on Draghi and Letta reports, must be pressed. By utilizing common lending tools not only for defense, but for European public goods -the green agenda, civil protection and social cohesion policies. If these policies are not promoted, the EU It will be led to multiplication.

Thirdlya comprehensive European immigration policy based on border protection with respect to human life and deal with traffickers, close cooperation with transition and origin and returns of those who are not asylum, in re -establishment programs must be promoted, as well as in integrated integration programs. Against the forces that support wars, but not refugees or want workers, but without rights.

The controversy over the issue of woke culture highlights the need for constituted political and kinematic processes in relation to immigrants, LOATKI+ community and any social group claiming its rights. The forces of conservatism and the far -right will take advantage of any kinematic initiative that is not based on specific claims and goals and consumed on communication and symbolic actions, far from the needs of society and citizens. The aim must be to build a society of respect/solidarity, against violence and fear. Not a guilty society.

Fourthit is necessary to have wider initiatives for cooperation with European and American progressive forces. The movement against neoliberal globalization and war in Iraq, as well as the austerity movement and 1%, are powerful examples of the importance of cooperation on both sides of the Atlantic.

At the same time, the ruling political forces in this area, which go beyond the kinematic processes, must consistently support the return to political systems based on the left -right balance, the only political context that can guarantee democratic processes, absorb today’s politicians.

It is clear that the separation of the center – fars has contributed to the undermining of democracy and to the rise of the far -right, as more and more political choices are choosing the second. “
