The attack on SYRIZA has been launched New Democracy for the construction of a metro station on Exarchion Square.

The ND accuses SYRIZA of a “regressive perception” as, in a Facebook post, MP and former minister Christoforos Bernardakis stressed, among other things, that “another district, the most historic district of Athens’ center, is being destroyed.”

Full ND announcement

“Finally, after several days of silence, SYRIZA took a position, and a clear one, on the construction of a metro station in Exarchia.

Through the former minister and MP of Athens Chr. Bernardakis informs us that “under the pretext of building a METRO, the historic district is being destroyed.”

Thus, for SYRIZA, the subway, which will make life easier for the residents, as it is done wherever there are stations, is a pretext for the destruction of the quarter. And still! With such regressive visions, SYRIZA and its leaders continue to raise the flag of progress.”

Post by Bernardakis

The post of a SYRIZA deputy is as follows:

“Exarchia is besieged by repression, the privatization of every free space, rbnb and the abandonment of any public infrastructure.

Under the pretext of building a METRO on Exarcheion Square and “re-planning” Strefi, another district, the most historical district of the Athenian center, is being destroyed.

Triptych of our response: 1. Neighborhood plan for residents, not interests, 2. New democratic city government, 3. Resignation of the government of Repression and Rapture…”
