The developments in the party of the official opposition, with Theodora Tzakri, are dramatic to reiterate today her intention to resign today from the position of secretary of the Parliamentary Group and from the SYRIZA bodies, adding that for the time being she remains in the parliamentary group of the party.
At the same time, Ms. Tzakri left open the possibility of leaving SYRIZA, noting that “my actions will evolve in the coming days”.
As she also said in another part of her interview with ANT1, “there is a plan”.
“Those people who waved their handkerchiefs at me and said ‘hello’, what did they think I was going to do? They have great audacity who drove the majority of the delegates to talk about apostates. There are no defectors but people who were expelled” said Mrs. Jakri.
Regarding the hints Giannoulis, Ms. Tzakri said that he “judges other people’s affairs on his own, I remember being accused of colluding with PASOK. I will not go to any PASOK”.
Theodora Tzakri said, finally, that she will be integrated into the Kasselaki movement when it develops into a party.

What factors contributed to the recent mass resignations within SYRIZA, as discussed by Dr. Maria Petrou?
**Interview with Political Analyst Dr. Maria Petrou on SYRIZA’s Recent Resignations**
**Editor**: Welcome, Dr. Petrou. Thank you for joining us today. The recent developments within SYRIZA, particularly the mass resignations from the central committee and the parliamentary party, seem quite significant. Can you provide us with an overview of the current situation?
**Dr. Petrou**: Thank you for having me. Yes, the situation is indeed dramatic. In recent days, we’ve witnessed over 77 members of SYRIZA’s central committee resign, alongside four MPs who left the parliamentary party. This indicates a profound level of discontent within the ranks of the party, which is alarming for the official opposition in Greece [[1](https://www.ekathimerini.com/politics/1253352/syriza-central-committee-hit-by-76-resignations/)].
**Editor**: Theodora Tzakri has announced her intention to resign as well. How does her departure impact SYRIZA’s leadership structure?
**Dr. Petrou**: Tzakri’s resignation as secretary of the Parliamentary Group adds to the turmoil. Her position is crucial in maintaining party cohesion and guiding parliamentary strategy. With multiple key figures stepping down, there is a vacuum of leadership that could affect the party’s ability to operate effectively in opposition. This raises questions about SYRIZA’s future direction and its ability to regain public trust [[1](https://www.ekathimerini.com/politics/1253352/syriza-central-committee-hit-by-76-resignations/)].
**Editor**: What do you think are the underlying reasons for these mass resignations?
**Dr. Petrou**: The reasons seem to stem from internal conflicts and dissatisfaction with the current leadership’s strategies, particularly following their recent electoral losses. Many members might feel disillusioned by the party’s performance and the lack of a clear vision moving forward. This wave of resignations could suggest a broader ideological divide within SYRIZA, as different factions may seek to distance themselves from leadership they no longer support [[1](https://www.ekathimerini.com/politics/1253352/syriza-central-committee-hit-by-76-resignations/)].
**Editor**: Looking ahead, what implications could these resignations have for the future of SYRIZA?
**Dr. Petrou**: If this trend continues, it could lead to significant challenges for SYRIZA. The party risks fragmenting further, which would weaken its position as the main opposition party. However, it could also open opportunities for new leadership to emerge, potentially revitalizing the party if they can unify the factions and articulate a compelling vision for their supporters. In any case, the next few weeks will be critical for SYRIZA as they navigate this crisis [[1](https://www.ekathimerini.com/politics/1253352/syriza-central-committee-hit-by-76-resignations/)].
**Editor**: Thank you, Dr. Petrou, for your insights. It will be interesting to see how SYRIZA adapts to these challenges in the coming months.
**Dr. Petrou**: Thank you for having me. It’s certainly a situation to watch.
