Initially responding to the change in his attitude towards Stefanos Kasselakis, Mr. Famellos told Mega: “It does not correspond to my personality to save or cover someone or attack someone. My position within the Conference was clear in February and it was not just mine.”
“My point was this: There were too many deficits which were identified a week ago again within the political secretariat. Unfortunately, this decision was violated,” he noted.
Sokratis Famellos: It turned out that the margins we gave were discredited, underestimated
“It turned out that the margins that we gave and I gave were discredited, underestimated, something from leaves a very bitter feeling but there is no question of feeling, I want to make it clear.
In any case, I am currently doing what our home needs and not just SYRIZA, what our country needs. We need to change, we can’t continue this downward spiral.”
Asked about the opinion polls that want Stefanos Kasselakis to be first in the preferences for President of SYRIZA, Mr. Famellos said: “It is too early to draw conclusions from opinion polls as well. My own announcement of candidacy was made last Thursday. The discussion in the organizations has not yet started”
“SYRIZA obviously cannot continue with recipes that have failed…”
“This situation must change in SYRIZA. Greek society needs it. He cannot obviously continue with prescriptions that have failed, that have created a shrinking SYRIZA, a policy that has been contradictory and not even politically coherent. We cannot continue in such a way that we respond not only to the values and struggles of the left but also to what society needs,” he added.
When asked if he “received Alexis Tsipras’s wish”, Mr. Famellos said: “This is derogatory both for Alexis Tsipras and for us. We do not operate with rings. And Alexis Tsipras has the political size to do what he thinks on his own, and so do I.”
