SYNASPISMOS - Coalition of the Left of Movements and Ecology

 
Public Statement by the President of the Parliamentary Group of SYRIZA, Alexis Tsipras
Athens
, November 7, 2011

During the last days we experienced unbelievable developments, operated behind the curtain and on the backs of the Greek people. Their aim is to prevent the expression of popular verdict.
Mr Papandreou is forced, by popular mobilization, to leave the Maximou House*. Nevertheless, he surely must feel relieved by the result of the background negotiations.
The Prime Minister who secretly submitted us under the powers of the IMF and agreed on loan agreements of subordination, without bringing them to the Parliament, will finally not put his choices under popular judgement. He will just carry them to the next PM.
Mr Samaras started retreating from his earlier positions even sooner than what we expected. He accepted the new loan agreement, which he previously criticized. He now accepts the plights of the new hard measures that this agreement brings. In 24 hours he truned from “the masks have dropped” to “I'm determined to help”.
The parties which lead the country to bankruptcy through their single-party majoritarian governments, now join their failures, to save us. Actually, they take co-responsibility of subordination, social dissolution and giving away of sovereignty. >> read the entire statement

Statement by the President of the Parliamentary Group of SYRIZA, Alexis Tsipras, concerning the formation of the new "national salvation government"

Statement of the President of the Parliamentary Group of SYRIZA , Alexis Tsipras, during the general strike demonstration of the trade-unions in Athens
Athens, October 19, 2011

Today the people speak. And when the people speak, not many words are necessary. We are 11 million and they are 154 - if they are 154. The popular anger has now become a river that is not turning back.
Today two kinds of Greece are confronting each other: Greece of subordination and misery, Greece of corruption cartels and backstage consultations, and Greece ofpride, dignity, social cohesion and solidarity. This new Greece, a Greece of dignity will win over the oligarchs and send Papandreou's government to the dustbin of history.
We deserve a better Greece. We deserve a better perspective, a better future for us andour children.
We are confident that the Greek people are able to take things into their own hands and give a perspective of hope.
