“We are not going to participate in government with people who played with the country on the way to the drachma, exposing it to a very big geopolitical risk,” President PASOK explained. Nikos Androulakisin a TV interview on Friday morning.

“For most citizens, a better welfare state seems impossible. It seems impossible to have a state without corruption, meritocracy and better education. Give me the strength to make the impossible possible, ”he set his and his goal PASOK-Movement for Change Nikos Androulakis talking to Mega.

“My first commitment, meritocracy”

“It’s very simple for me. Before us, May 21, we have a great opportunity to decide to change. I have a different political mindset. I’m specific, I’m not lying. I don’t like this excuse. I don’t like that we use taxes the Greek people for bribery so that some people can get political dowry,” Mr. Androulakis stressed.

Referring to program priorities, N. Androulakis noted: “My first commitment is meritocracy. All hospital administrators and organizations – those that staffed “blue” children, such as OSE – will be selected on the basis of open international competitions. These individuals will have a five-year term so that no party can blackmail them with election cycles. Second theme: Transparency. Respect for the taxes of the Greek people. All from Diaugia. Direct quest giveaway has ended. The issue of education comes first. I propose, first of all, to have a national baccalaureate according to the standards of other countries, to stop the drawing and the cost of tutoring. You graduate from high school, get a national baccalaureate and choose a school by taking exams there. Second, we need to strengthen special education. For me, spending on education should be brought in line with the European Union average. We owe the child to complete the 3rd grade of secondary school and obtain a language certificate and computer skills. Let’s create another structure that will reduce the cost of raising a child. For me, this is a commitment: no children outside of kindergartens. My priority is the demographics of the country.”

“Is there a Greek citizen who believes that Mr. Mitsotakis will continually cut tax rates and raise wages by 25% over the next four years?” he wondered, adding: “I really think we have a tie-on populism here compared to the no-tie populism that we experienced in 2015. Mr. Mitsotakis is the blue SYRIZA with what he said the day before yesterday. “

asked how to determine wages in the private sector, Mr. Androulakis replied: “The parties will not say, the social partners will say, as is done in other European countries. We must return to a regime that respects the rights of the worker. Collective agreements, negotiations with social partners, a different working environment.”

Opening the question of its strengthening YOU, noted: “Mr. Mitsotakis promised that he would be involved in healthcare in the next four years. Why did he not deal with the previous four and instead of giving 8%-10% of the resources of the Recovery Fund to health care, as other European states do, actually give only 2%? The remaining 2% goes to energy modernization of hospitals. Why didn’t he hire permanent staff? Why didn’t he raise the salaries of health workers? Why didn’t he include heavy and unhealthy paramedics? I personally promise that we will build a new NSS, as planned by Giorgos Gennimatas, Paraskevas Avgerinos and Andreas Papandreou. For me, the national health care system is the biggest pillar of social justice. I believe in it, PASOK did it and we have an obligation to resurrect it.”

“I will stand in the way of the de-Hellenization of the Greek economy”

Asked about accuracy, the president of PASOK-Movement for Change insisted on “lowering the VAT on basic goods and strengthening the Competition Commission so that it can finally control and normalize the market, where there is huge speculation. We also talked about a just energy transition that will allow hundreds of thousands of Greeks to install photovoltaic panels on their rooftops so they can produce the energy they consume and not have high tariffs.”

“What is the inelastic cost of living? Health, as I said, education and housing. I was the first to raise in public debate the need for a pool of 150,000 social housing units, either newly built by the Recovery Fund or refurbished with tax benefits, to be provided at very low rents to an equal number of families, as is the case in Austria, Germany , Italy, Spain, Portugal. In Thessaloniki, as far as I know, there are 15,000 closed houses, according to the calculations of the previous municipal government. If we provide tax breaks and incentives for recovery, we will open 2,500. If this is done in every municipality, we will build a reservoir within 2-2.5 years,” added Mr. Androulakis.

“I will stand in the way of the de-Hellenization of the Greek economy. Impossible, because Mr. Tsipras gave the fund bad loans in 2015, so that we do not protect the first residence and give a second chance for dignity to those who want fair arrangements,” he noted on the issue of bad loans.

“I’m asking for a strong double-digit rate”

Regarding the electoral stake, he said: “I’m asking for a strong double-digit percentage, which will show that comparatively PASOK has risen much more than our opponents. The second question is convergence and is there room for convergence. You may be told, “We don’t agree with what you’re saying.” And, thirdly, the person of universal recognition and the post of prime minister. I will not say who it will be, and not a “brain” as you said. All cooperation governments also discuss persons to be mutually acceptable. We cannot appoint as Minister of Foreign Affairs someone who does not want to serve the patriotic policy of consistency, someone who wants Prespas of the Aegean. We cannot have a populist finance minister who does not respect the taxes of the Greek people. Mr. Tsipras and Mr. Mitsotakis are worried about their personal wealth. These are not two neutral faces.”

“We are not going to participate in the government with people who played with the country”

“I’m the most consistent with her governability of the country. Mr. Mitsotakis said that he wanted confidence and that he would not use the first order, now he turns around and says that he will use it. He says he misses some MPs, Mr Tsipras said the same thing. In one they included Mr. Varoufakis in the game, in the other they didn’t. He acted as an MP from New Democracy and “demonstrated” cooperation with Velopoulos, then representatives of New Democracy came out and said they did not agree with Velopoulos. In SYRIZA, we heard a member of his parliament say: “Even with Velopoulos we can govern together”, others defend joint governance with Mr. Kammenos as good, and some others argue that it was the wrong choice. Everyone says whatever they want to keep their seat,” he stressed, answering a question about the electoral strategy of his political opponents.

“We clearly said: We are not going to participate in the government with people who played with the country on the way of the drachma.exposing it to a very big geopolitical risk,” he explained about cooperation with MERA25.

“Mr. Mitsotakis has never invited a meeting on a serious national or social issue based on protocol. The fact that he saw me in the corridors of parliament in front of 40 journalists and said to me with pure arrogance, “at some point, let’s talk” shows who Mr. Mitsotakis is. And I say it for the first time. It shows his character and culture. The Prime Minister, if he wants to see a political leader, calls him on the basis of the protocol,” Mr. Androulakis replied to the Prime Minister.

“Debate with all political leaders”

After holding the debate, he clarified, “For me, there should be debates with all political leaders. Because if you want to be a government, you have to say certain things to the Greeks. Young people are tired of hearing about what happened before 2014 and what is happening in 2014-2019. Something to hear before 2019, and something needs to be done in 2019-2023. I want, and I speak the language of truth, to be trusted. My mentality and political path prove that I am neither an agent of a client state nor an agent of populism and I want to build trusting and reliable relationships with every Greek woman and every Greek citizen.”
