P. Geroulanos: Vote for the one who will give perspective to KINAL, in the field, in the country

“Vote for the one who will give perspective to the party, to the space, to the country,” said the former minister, Pavlos Geroulanos, referring to the KINAL internal party elections.

“The biggest progressive ‘party’ in the country is on the couch, it is his home, he is not going to vote. He is not talking at the moment, he is waiting for a proposal”, the former minister stressed and added that at the same time, instead, the debate revolves around one, two executives who left for other parties and about “how bad things ND, or SYRIZA is doing”, without a necessary discussion about the young, the unemployed, small and medium-sized businesses, the shrinking of the productive base, the required changes, the future of the country “.

“On December 5 and 12 we open a perspective” underlined Mr. Geroulanos, presenting his proposal for decentralization of power and its diffusion to the local communities, with “transparency, accountability, consultation”, with nine Development Regions, nine economic centers (banks), nine universities, local referendums, energy communities, transfer of part of state real estate and social policy to municipalities, what he described as a “patriotic economy”.

“We need a new set of politicians who will trust the people to trust them,” Geroulanos said, adding: “When decisions are made centrally, wealth goes back to the center. instead of holding all power in his hands, he distributes it to local cells, to local communities. ” This proposal, according to Mr. Geroulanos, should be a criterion for cooperation with other parties on a “program basis”, while on the issue of the name of the body (PASOK or KINAL), he said that “it can not be the beginning, but the culmination of a process of change in the party, which “nine out of ten times is not needed” and if it is finally deemed necessary, should mean both its tradition and its new position in society.
