For a new window of opportunity for PASOK-Movement for Change that arises from the current political situation, former Prime Minister George Papandreouin his speech a few hours ago at 3rd Congress of the party emphasizing that it must look ahead and respond to the unprecedented challenges of our time by subverting established practices and perceptions.
«Some people are afraid of that. Our timeless course of changes for a just and democratic Greece. That is why they insist on trapping us in a dead-end dilemma: who are you going with, they ask us?“Mr. Papandreou said on the issue of collaborations as, as he said,” they want to make us in the consciousness of the people, accomplices in the management of the existing power, support in the customer appetites of the powerful. So, they would only resort to this as a last resort. That, nothing changes “.
He made his position clear by emphasizing: “The aspirations of the right have never met the values ​​of our Party.
But the truth is, our roads can not meet the maintenance of any color.
For us, the redemptive, liberating way out for the country, for the Greek people, can only have a progressive sign. It’s time to change the terms of the game. If the people decide otherwise, democracy will have no dead ends. Let others rule».
The former prime minister and former president of PASOK claimed that “the real bet is not who we will go withbut where do we want the country to go, what radical changes must be made, what social forces will we gather to upset the balance of inertia, of the communication polarization between ND and SYRIZA».
He added that the two parties, the government and the official opposition, seek the polarization that does not concern the real dilemmas for Greece, the society, but it is a communication polarization that serves a catastrophic expediency, the confinement of voters in the micro-party aspirations.
«Our bet is not with whom we will manage the existing power structures, it is to overthrow the political scene. At the forefront of history, let the forces of society come again, and the young people, who want, know, can, move the country forward, if we give them hope again. The conservative forces of the country are comfortable in the ND-SYRIZA dipole.
The so-called dilemma for them is, who is the best manager of our misery and pain».
George Papandreou described as a very optimistic fact that despite the great difficulties, the party organized procedures that gave birth to hope and that is the great responsibility.
“Do not let them down. There should be substantial – not sham communication with the citizens. “Their concerns should be visible in the formulation of our positions and policies”, he noted.
«We are democrats, we are socialists. At the moment for PASOK-Movement for Change, there is not just a window of opportunity, but a critical and favorable situation. To grow our space. “To embrace those who can not be identified with customer logic,” said the former prime minister, while making it clear that “we are against the practice of a government whose choices risk leading us back to painful adventures. We are against the logic of those who chanted “first time left”, but were companions with the hard Karamanlis right and Kammenos».
«The conservative dipole of ND and SYRIZA, has the primary concern of the suffocating control of power and its prefecture. Neither of them gave the slightest sign that it can change Greece, to overthrow the customer structures, to highlight new social forces, with open horizons, with bright ideas, with innovative approaches that reflect the visions of Greek society.“, Supported Mr. Papandreou.
He posed the important problems of Democracy posed by the new era and a party of the modern Social Democracy is called upon to answerthe dilemmas facing Europe and the rest of the world with the war in Ukraine and its great consequences.
It ended with a report on the loss of Fofi Gennimata.
«We miss a woman fighter, fighter, persistent, a comrade. Its absence is felt in every way. But if he looks at us from somewhere today, he will be proud of this magnificent meeting of ours. We all honor her today, with our presence, but also our fighting spirit and dedication to a new, creative course for the Party, for Greece.
Fofi gave fights to many! Struggles for abused children and women. In memory of these struggles, I propose that our Movement hold an annual Conference for the protection of the rights of children and women.».
