With the phrase “I will wait for justice to speak, and when justice speaks, I will take a stand” Mr. G. Varoufakis responded yesterday to a question about the recent attack on him in Validity. As you know, the head Day25 four days ago, he was attacked and beaten by a small group of people outside a restaurant, in the same place where he was attacked, albeit in a milder form, in 2015.

“Serious Dialogue”

“What I can say is that it was 6-7 and I saw who hurt me. I have his face imprinted in my memory, and I assure you, he was not 17 years old. He was at least 25 years old and even practiced surgical abuse,” Mr. Varoufakis said, among other things, in his radio interview (Real). Recall that the police have begun detaining a 17-year-old boy who is allegedly involved in the attack and was previously involved by the police as a suspect in participation in anti-authoritarian incidents. However, the head of MeRA25 claimed from the very first moment of his post that the individuals who attacked him were the “good guys of the night” and not anarchists or leftists.

G. Varoufakis mentioned the attacks he received – He was for dialogue between the parties before, not after the elections.

Referring to the deadly train accident in Tempi and its impact on the political climate, Mr. Varoufakis said in an interview that on all major issues, “we have a wide open path for serious dialogue between political forces on the eve of the elections. After the elections on Sunday there will be alisverisi, a very dirty and very ugly bazaar of places. As a country, as a society, we have the opportunity to honor the memory of our dead and have this conversation, which has never happened before.” We add that as MeRA25 “we will present our proposals, we will honor the memory of the 57 dead, their families, turning mourning into a great opportunity to finally discuss.”

Finally, he noted that in the relevant invitations to the substantive dialogue, “SYRIZA said: come after the elections, the KKE does not go with anyone, PASOK has not existed for us for many years.”
