The end of Syriza could be a new beginning for Alexis Tsipras

What do you want, what do you do? The party we knew as Syriza no longer exists – as a political entity with a governmental perspective, at least. It has essentially ceased to exist since Alexis Tsipras handed over leadership.

But let's not hide: Tsipras no longer exists as a “prime minister” because in three election contests – 2019, May, June 2023 – he did not show the ruling group demanded its share.

That a passerby – literally – settled in Komondoro with a CV as he presented it himself – without any scrutiny of its elements – without knowledge of political art and the relationship with the left, It was not “a new beginning, new struggles,” but rather a symptom of disintegration.

This party – already divided – cannot have a future. Tropical forests are only sustained by being nourished by their decay. Sooner or later it will collapse. Not just because those holding the parties would point it out European elections. But primarily because the situation is so fragile that it doesn't even need to go that far.

Don't put it all on Kasellakis. If anything, he never hid that he wasn't more than himself – which he showed. Which 75,000 people They favored him for the presidency without knowing him, and this was also a symptom of the dizziness into which Syriza fell.

The crisis inevitably develops into a solution. It is absurd to claim that there is an organized party with a structure, political tasks, leadership, and employees.

It's done. Let the estranged president and his desperate voters not want to admit it either…

In Ouija, this ending has a name: Alexis Tsipras. What we see is the work of his hands. Politics is not made by assumptions, but if by 2018 – Who took the country out of the memorandum and it did not need it burnt – He had done what survival and common sense dictated, things would have taken a different turn and power would not have been offered to Mitsotakis.

But since the Syrians did not “judge” him, there is no reason for anyone else to judge him.

But by God: whoever rushes to end Tsipras with the final Syriza party will be refuted. Politicians are judged by their time and political credentials. Not from their average successes or failures.

With Tsipras, it's what happens with the most gifted politicians in history: at some point, they create chaos, but they carry with them the rule: “You eat and you heal.”

Didn't this happen to him? Andrea Papandreou Who let things slide 1989, But he brought it back in 1993 because it was Andreas Papandreou?

Tsipras is responsible for the collapse, but he is also the only person capable of reversing it. No one else is in Democratic Party – The hype about the “left” must go away – has its own conditions: a former prime minister, 50 years old, with a strong political rhetoric and an impressive stage presence, familiar and – gives a – sound base. He made mistakes, but he didn't steal. Not only did he risk things for the party and abandon himself, but he took the country and lifted it up – knowing the political cost.

For example, it was easy not to reach Prespace. Or do not collide with it Troika Concerning memo policies and channel leaders. Or earlier to accept its approach “Himalayan cat.”

He stood in the issues of the country and society. He simply bore the burdens of the parties. But he left without skeletons in the closets and with the prime ministers gone with the elections. He did not lose them to Mitsotakis, but was defeated from within and by them Powerful of money And based on Media.

Certainly no one expects Tsipras to restore Syriza. It would be a new suicide for him to appear again surrounded by those he lost in 2019 and swallowed up in 2023. This chapter has been closed – and the point is to prove that it is closed without taking it with him.

The way is the one he did in Aristotle Square Mikis Theodorakis: To place a chair in Syntagma Square and count those who come before him one by one: do, leave. With an army to rely on, the time will come: after Mitsotakis, who? And There is nothing else in sight.

In this way the conditions will be shaped in a healthy way to create an alternative solution by pooling forces in society – away from the party bureaucracies of Komondoro and Char. Tricop.

Citizens have turned their backs on Syriza, not Tsipras. Not permanently, anyway. A bet that his presence in the public sphere without those the Syrians hate will start the temporary political confrontation from the beginning…
