The departure of Yiannis Dragasakis, a historic member of the left, from SYRIZA after the election of Stephanos Kassalakis to the leadership was a foregone conclusion, but it took Komoundourou by surprise, as he raised ideological issues and paved the way for the creation of a new party.
Former Deputy Prime Minister Tsipras and founding member of SYRIZA addressed the current president, saying, “Mr. Kassalakis took over a left-wing party with problems & will “light up” many more problems without a left-wing party. Entering the process – the left-wing. SYRIZA, with the current leadership, the identity it faced before, For this reason, it cannot solve the problems of strategy and democratic activities, it will be in permanent crisis.
Surprised by the developments, Koumoundourou rushed to reduce SYRIZA’s historic staff, and Mr. Dragasakis left scathing hints about the timing of his departure from the party, directly relating it to … Attica Bank.
In particular, as he said in a statement, “The left means a conflict with powerful energy companies. A conflict with those who act against the common good. It happened in the case of the Attica Bank, which Syriza and its leader brought to the public because they did not keep “silence” while watching the looting of public property, ignoring those who could be “troubling”. “The left is to maintain a clear and strict approach to the dirty profits of the banks, which leaves no room to question your motives”, said Goumounduro, among others.
On the same wavelength, Pavlos Polakis spoke of “a black day for the Greek Bank today” in his post on social networks, reproducing the party announcement.
The impermissible tones and insinuations about “interests” chosen by SYRIZA towards the iconic figure of the left led to an outburst of the so-called “Tsipras Guard”. Kostas Zachariadis was the first to respond, commenting, “It is alien to my own principles and values to disrespect partners when we are separated.” Reproducing it, he added, “I subscribe to every word. Our differences of opinion, over the years, are many. Respect is given.”
Olga Gerovasili emphasized her “steady path to the left”, X “I don’t agree with Ioannis Dragasakis leaving #SYRIZA_PS. But no one can forget his long, ethical and stable path to the left and his enormous contribution to the path of our government.
In a particularly poignant article – his intervention in the “Teachers’ Newspaper”, the well-known columnist, Thanasis Carderos, said, “Someone should tell Stephanos Kassalakis, who prides himself on leftist stability, that all the left is unacceptable in all of Syriza’s declarations, but in many more.” On the one hand, he is my When arguing with Pavlos Polakis for badmouthing a woman from .D.,He is drowning in his own contradictions when he argues with Pavlos Polakis for bad-mouthing a woman from .D., on the other hand, he talks like he is talking about Yannis Dragasakis”, referring to Mr. Carderos, the head of Syriza, “The left is not with big mouths, but with actions. manifests itself,” argued Stephanos Kassalakis at the end of the SYRIZA declaration. Actions, Dragasakis big mouth. Here we raise our hands, Lord, put a prison on our mouths so that we do not repeat Polakis’ command in Sringala.”
For his part, Alexis Haritsis, speaking on Action24, said Yannis Dragasakis’ decision “could have been taken earlier” and attacked Stefanos Kasselakis:
“Even though Mr. Kasselakis’ SYRIZA has nothing to surprise us with, today I was really surprised. I raise my hands. So will the current leadership of SYRIZA, Mr. Kasselakis, teach the left a lesson and point the finger at Yiannis Dragasakis, who has been on the left for 60 years?”
“Until We Meet Again”
Yannis Dragasakis, Mr. In his farewell statement to SYRIZA, Kassalakis left the window wide open for a solution to the deadlock in the progressive space that could arise with a new party vehicle, meaningfully saying:
“The social left has the “left hemisphere” of society and seeks a unified, strong and effective political representation as much as possible. Developments in the world, Europe and Greece leave no room for complacency. However, the march and reorganization of the left is a matter of the uncoordinated world of society, youth, the left and the environment. Otherwise, history shows that it is more likely to succeed through joint initiatives and movements that should be everywhere. Every suitable form” observed a historical member of the Left, not coincidentally: “good competition, in known places, for known reasons”.
