“In the next elections, we have an obligation to prevent the emergence of an uncontrollable ruling prime minister,” said the President of SYRIZA. Alexis Tsiprasin his post after New Democracy’s election victory yesterday.

“I learned in difficult times to take responsibility and not give up in the fight. I’m here. I will not give up even now, even in the midst of a hard struggle. Yesterday was election day. Today is the first day of another election battle. In yesterday’s elections, the ND won, but the strategy of simple proportionality was defeated. The progressive forces to which we extended our hand of cooperation throughout the entire pre-election period were a front almost exclusively against SYRIZA,” continued the President of SYRIZA.

“And yesterday, during the historic victory of the right in the elections, they, more than the new Democrats, celebrated the fall in the percentage of SYRIZA. We looked at the country. They own the field. In the next election, we have the primary responsibility to prevent an omnipotent and uncontrollable ruler from appearing as prime minister. But also to defend the leading presence of the left in the political life of the country as an irreconcilable force. What comes from afar and will go far. SYRIZA is and will remain here. As the main organ of progressive forces and the expression of popular and public interests. To protect the world of work. And to prevent the restoration of a comfortable systemic two-party system.”

Executive meeting ended SYRIZA-P.S.

At noon, the meeting of the expanded executive apparatus of the party ended, and the leaders dispersed without making a single statement. “The president will tell you everything,” they stressed, referring to the statement by Alexis Tsipras, which was made public shortly after.

Kumunduru is trying to get over the electoral defeat as quickly as possible and re-strategize the next meeting, which is expected to take place on 25 June.

On Sunday evening, against the backdrop of a 20-point difference, N.D. Alexis Tsipras of SYRIZA said: “We must immediately make all the changes necessary to fight the next decisive and final electoral battle under the best possible conditions.”

“The Problem of Reliability”

“There is a question of trust,” stressed the left-wing leader of “K”, emphasizing that people do not seem to believe that SYRIZA will be able to implement its program. However, the leaders of “Umbrella” found yesterday in Kumundura turned out to be united in relation to the president. What they don’t want is throwing the white towel at Kyriakos Mitsotakis in the second round of voting.
