Τι θέλει να πει ο …”ποιητής” Στέφανος Κασσελάκης: Ομιλεί για κενό εξουσίας αλλά οι “σύντροφοι” του στην Κουμουνδούρου του διαμηνύουν ότι όλα είναι καλά και …ωραία! (video)

“We address the citizens of Greece telling them that the country needs a big progressive change,” president of SYRIZA-Progressive Alliance parliamentary committee, Nikos Pappas, said on Sunday at the press conference in the context of the 88th Thessaloniki International Fair (TIF).

This, he emphasized, “so that we don’t watch millions of hectares of forests burn every year and the fires stop either in the sea or in the residential fabric. So that the images of the hundreds of thousands of tons of dead fish do not dominate the television screens as we saw a few days ago. So that critical infrastructures are not left to their fate and the country does not experience tragedies like the crime of Tempi. So that fundamental rules of the rule of law are not violated, so that ministers, heads of the Armed Forces, businessmen, political leaders and administration officials are not illegally monitored. So that ELSTAT does not announce for the next few years that births in our country are tens of thousands less than deaths. To keep the hospitals and the heroic staff who work there from collapsing. So that we are not the last country in the purchasing power of workers in Europe, so that we are not champions in the cost of energy, so that half the people of this country do not need half the income just to be housed. So that 95% of Greek businesses are not excluded from the NSRF and bank lending…”.

All of the above, Pappas argued are the results of the choices and policies of Mr. Mitsotakis. “But it is not the inevitable fate of the Greek people,” he said.

Asked if SYRIZA remains a governing party, he said that “SYRIZA is a party that claims governance, it claims to build the alliances that will form the competitive pole against New Democracy.”
