By Niki Zorba

He met earlier with a pre-election agenda the Political Secretariat of SYRIZA, as plannedwith Alexis Tsipras, however, calling on the Prime Minister, during his presentation to the members of the Political Secretariat, to set the date of the elections from now on.

The President of SYRIZA essentially, evaluating the statement of K. Mitsotakis in the interview that gave to Capital.gr that “he wants to run out of four years, but …”, According to party sources, he allegedly said addressing the party’s General Secretary that “Mr. Mitsotakis, in the face of the accumulated deadlocks he created, apparently decided to escape with elections.

His decision is welcome. This is not the first time this has happened to a right-wing government. However, this is the first time that no excuse is sought in a national issue, but in the political climate and especially in the opposition. We call on Mr. Mitsotakis to get serious. The country is facing a double crisis, social and geopolitical and must manage them with national responsibility, as long as it is still in the position of the University “.

In the same context, Mr. Tsipras, referring to Kyriakos Mitsotakis, asked: “If he really wants a climate of political culture and conciliation, especially on major national issues, we call on him on the way to the elections to do the following:

1) To announce from now on the date of the elections in September
2) To appoint an acting Minister of Interior from now on in order for the country to go smoothly on the way to the elections.
3) To convene a permanent meeting of the National Council for Foreign Policy, so that all political forces are fully aware of developments in our national issues throughout the pre-election period.
4) To immediately set up the competent cross-party committee and to impose democratic rules for equal coverage of the parties in the Media on the way to the elections “.

Based on the same sources, A. Tsipras also said about:

Government:

The country has been led to a double impasse. On the one hand, conditions of social crisis are being formed with the frightening rise of inflation and the contraction of incomes. On the other hand, for the first time there is so much insecurity and so much tension in our relationship with Turkey.

The Mitsotakis government, having failed to adequately deal with the health crisis, is proving incapable of now dealing with the energy crisis and the accuracy crisis. Mitsotaki precision, a precision with a clear class content and orientation, serves the few and the powerful, targets the world of work, the weakest and the middle class. Through her actions and turning her back on scandal, she multiplied the effects of the energy crisis.

Accuracy

Energy inflation runs in Greece with 60% while throughout Europe with 39%. Inflation in Greece is the highest in Western Europe. The price of gasoline in Greece is the 7th most expensive in the world. At the same time, the super profits of the energy companies are over 1.5 billion euros, which the Mitsotakis government is trying to reduce with accounting tricks in order not to tax them. Accuracy not only makes the poor poorer but also hits the freelancers, small and medium-sized enterprises, the middle class.

Instead of a serious increase in wages, equivalent to inflation and drastic measures as other countries take to reduce prices on fuel and electricity bills, Mr. Mitsotakis with insufficient bonuses, which evaporate from the constant increases before they well reach the pockets of citizens, it only manages to subsidize the filthy profits in energy and fuel that is moving to a negative record across Europe. The one who blamed SYRIZA for the benefits during the difficult years of his rule, is now trying to reverse his collapse with insufficient benefits. He is not interested in supporting the citizens against the tsunami of accuracy, but only in fooling them with bonuses with an expiration date of the early elections that he is planning.

Nationally

In our national issues, Mr. Mitsotakis puts the country on adventures with I.X. pursuing a foreign policy. The dogma of the country’s foreign policy is changing and from a pillar of stability and security in the difficult region of the Eastern Mediterranean and the Balkans it is transformed into an advanced outpost of the West, with the covert mission of heavy weapons in Ukraine, without the slightest information of the parties and the Greek people, who involve the country in the war by making it part of the crisis, while at the same time depriving the islands of weapons. Mr. Mitsotakis in Istanbul three months ago in his meeting with Erdogan promised a calm summer. Less than two weeks passed and the escalation of tension from Turkey began again
