“Every day with the Mitsotakis government is a lost day for the country,” said Nasos Iliopoulos, speaking on “First Program”, adding that the government must go because it is a “government of social plunder”. He described Mr. Mitsotakis as “a key factor of instability for the country”, stating that “the scenarios for early elections start from the Maximos Palace”.
The press representative of SYRIZA-PS commented that Mr. Mitsotakis “chooses to constantly attack both the simple analogy and the culture of cooperation governments throughout Europe”, thus showing “his arrogance, his belief that either he will govern or there will be chaos.” “That is why he did not rule out changes to the electoral law even today,” he said, noting that “if the government changes the electoral law for the second time during its term – not the one of simple proportionality, but the law on the limit of self-reliance that ND brought – then we are clearly talking about an image of institutional decline”.
He emphasized that for SYRIZA it is clear that there can be a progressive government from the first ballot with simple proportional representation, pointing out that a necessary condition for this is for SYRIZA-PS to be the first party.
Asked about the post-election collaborations, he reiterated that the issue is not with whom the collaboration will take place, but based on which program and that SYRIZA wants a government “that will regulate the pandemic debt of businesses, by writing off part of it, so that thousands of SMEs can and professionals to continue working, which will bring the country back to European conditions in terms of labor”. He said that the Greek labor market “is of the Balkan type”, as our collective agreements cover less than 20%, when the European average is at 60% “and this is happening by political choice of the Mitsotakis government”. “We want a progressive government that will strengthen public tools, and will not privatize, for example, PPC in the midst of an energy crisis. We have seen the developments in France where the electricity business is nationalized,” he emphasized. He commented that “citizens will judge whoever in the end will turn their back on Mitsotakis politics and government, while he would have had the opportunity to support a progressive government”.
The SYRIZA representative said, among other things, that “health poverty has returned” as “25% of the citizens have medical and pharmaceutical needs that they are unable to cover” and that when SYRIZA surrendered the country in 2019, this percentage was at 8%. “In the midst of a pandemic, the Mitsotakis government has managed to increase health poverty. This is the most egregious example of the government’s failure, among everything else it has failed – inflation, energy poverty, wages,” he said. He commented that “only for BSE it has not failed, for private clinics, private insurance and colleges. For citizens it has failed completely”.
