SYRIZA-PS / Mitsotakis in a panic – He knows that a tough message is coming at the ballot box on June 9

To get serious and to give convincing answers for all the big questions that the official opposition asks him every day, SYRIZA-PS invited Kyriakos Mitsotakiscommenting on the interview the prime minister gave today Thursday (11/4) to ANT1.

“One year after the crime of Tempe, it was proven that Kyriakos Mitsotakis repeatedly lied to the Greek people to mislead him” SYRIZA-PS emphasizes in a statement, noting that in the interview the prime minister left open the possibility that the fatal train was carrying xylene, claimed that he does not know how the edited audio documents were leaked, while declaring ignorance about who made the decision for the batch.

“It’s obvious how Mr. Mitsotakis, under the pressure of reality, is in a panic that is why he chooses arrogance and toxicity over self-criticism about his government’s actions. He declared, in fact, that he was determined to exhaust the four-year period “with any result in the European elections”. He obviously knows that a tough message is coming for him and his government at the polls on June 9. Especially in this he is right, he is well informed by pollsters. That’s why he declares “with whatever result”” notes Koumoundourou.

“Beyond his arrogance, however, Mr. Mitsotakis mobilizes on the way to the polls and the cheapest populism in his attempt to rally the faltering ND. Somewhat this is how the mud attack against SYRIZA – PS and its President, Stefanos Kasselakis, is explained. His attempt to impose the “two ends” narrative on the public discourse is tragic. The comparison of Stefanos Kasselakis with far-right politicians only causes shyness and is indicative of his own desperation” SYRIZA-PS also notes.

At the same time, Koumoundourou underlines that Kyriakos Mitsotakis proved once again that lives in a “bubble”, unlike the average citizen of the country who struggles to make ends meet. He also emphasizes that the peak of the prime minister’s audacity is when he promises a “conflict with the deep state”. “Which deep state will he clash with? With that of Predator, the editing, the spoofing, the violation of personal data? That is, with himself…?’ notes.

“We call on the prime minister to get serious. To give convincing answers to the big questions we ask him every day about the crime of Tempe, to stop putting the solidarity of the “fireplaces” above the search for the truth and the rendering of Justice. To listen to the bells of the Commission, the European Parliament and the European Public Prosecutor’s Office and to stop flirting with grexit from the European democratic institutions. Stop the propaganda about the state of the economy and face the harsh reality that citizens are experiencing. To realize that citizens want to live in a state of law, economic development, social justice and security” SYRIZA-PS emphasizes in its announcement.

“He will realize all this on the night of the European elections. The response to arrogance and political cynicism will be resounding and deafening” ends up.

The entire announcement of SYRIZA-PS

A year after the crime of Tempos, it turned out that Kyriakos Mitsotakis was repeatedly lying to the Greek people to mislead them.

In his interview with ANT1 today, he left open the possibility that the fatal train was carrying xylene and other flammable materials, which he denied… categorically on March 22, 2023. He also said he does not know “how the edited audio conversations were leaked to the media the day after the crime.” , retreating from the government’s initial position that the editing was a myth. It is also the first time that he has admitted the planting for reasons of “stabilizing the ground”, but again declaring ignorance of who made this decision!

It is obvious that Mr. Mitsotakis, under the pressure of reality, is in a panic about this and chooses arrogance and toxicity instead of self-criticism about the actions of his government. He declared, in fact, that he was determined to exhaust the four-year term “with any result in the European elections”. He obviously knows that a tough message is coming for him and his government at the polls on June 9. Especially in this he is right, he is well informed by pollsters. That is why he states “with whatever result”.

In addition to his arrogance, however, Mr. Mitsotakis enlists the cheapest populism on the way to the polls in his attempt to rally the faltering ND.

This is how the mud attack towards SYRIZA – PS and its President, Stefanos Kasselakis, is explained. His attempt to impose the narrative of “two extremes” on the public discourse is tragic. The comparison of Stefanos Kasselakis with far-right politicians only causes shyness and is indicative of his own desperation.

At the same time, Mr. Mitsotakis proved once again that he lives in a “bubble”, in contrast to the average citizen of the country who finds it difficult to make ends meet, after he argued that the measures taken by his government to combat punctuality are allegedly enough. Let him take a look at the financial program of the SYRIZA PS to realize that there are solutions, and indeed completely cost-effective solutions.

The culmination, of course, of Mr. Mitsotakis’ audacity is when he promises a “conflict with the deep state.” Which deep state will he clash with? With that of Predator, the editing, the spoofing, the violation of personal data? That is, with himself…?
We call on the prime minister to get serious. To give convincing answers to the big questions we ask him every day about the crime of Tempe, to stop putting the solidarity of the “fireplaces” above the search for the truth and the rendering of Justice. To listen to the bells of the Commission, the European Parliament and the European Public Prosecutor’s Office and stop flirting with grexit from the European democratic institutions. Stop the propaganda about the state of the economy and face the harsh reality that citizens are experiencing. To realize that citizens want to live in a rule of law, economic development, social justice and security.

He will realize all this on the night of the European elections. The response to arrogance and political cynicism will be resounding and deafening.
