"We do not want and there should not be a controversial ballot in Alexis Tsipras' EL.A.S in the election," said SYRIZA-PS, Socrates Famellus speaking in Action 24.
He then explained, starting with the decision of the SYRIZA Central Committee: "After the publication of the establishment of EL.A.S., we decided in the Central Committee that the new party is a positive initiative, we support it, we stand next to it we do not see it in contrast. With this tectonic change brought by EL.A.S., we work to achieve a broad convergence in the progressive space to bring down the Mitsotakis regime. The majority of the Central Committee has decided and the basis of SYRIZA agrees with this position. Either we respect or we don't. I believe in this proposal even though it is difficult because that is what society tells us to be together to leave the Mitsotakis regime.".
For Members who may leave to join ELAS he said: "K.O.'s action will be crucial and should be strengthened in the next period. Away from me every thought of resigning MPs".
What about the state grant and the assets of Syriza said: "Any such discussion is wrong when citizens are anxious about how to make the month".
About his relationship with Alexis Tsipras he replied: "The relationship with Alexis Tsipras politically and personally is very good to excellent. However, what we have to say about political matters must be said publicly. Alexis Tsipras heard the decision of the Central Committee and I'm watching his positions. I reject all logic for secret discussion and consultation with Alexis Tsipras.".
The question of whether to be a candidate MP in a combination under Alexis Tsipras replied: "I don't do politics in personal terms. I fought for unity in the progressive space. I have done a lot of personal excesses and I will continue to do so that this government will leave.".
The question as to whether EL.A.S. can win the election and even from the first Sunday against Kyriakos Mitsotakis replied: "I think that the initiative can be the basis for the response to Mr. Mitsotakis. Because no one alone can. Conditions in society shape the conditions for the Mitsotakis government to leave the first election confrontation.".
He also said that there should be elections as soon as possible and that until then the party and programming will continue to exist.
He finally commented on the government's initiative to address accuracy with posokanei.gov.gr saying: "A while ago Kyriakos Mitsotakis told us that he is sorry and angry with accuracy. Now he's creating a tool to educate the citizens in fact. Why doesn't he do something to bring down product prices?".
