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 Ms. 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”.

What are the implications of the recent resignations of Theodora Tzakri and Giota Poulou for SYRIZA’s leadership and strategy as the main opposition party in Greece?
**Interview with Political Analyst Maria Vassiliou on the Recent Developments in SYRIZA**
**Editor:** Welcome, Maria. Thank you for joining us today. There have been significant developments within SYRIZA, especially with the resignation of Theodora Tzakri and Giota Poulou. How do these changes affect the party’s status as the main opposition in Greece?
**Maria Vassiliou:** Thank you for having me. The resignations of both Theodora Tzakri and Giota Poulou are indeed pivotal. Their departures have shifted the balance of power within SYRIZA, which had been maintaining its status as the main opposition party partly due to its composition in parliament [[1](https://www.keeptalkinggreece.com/2024/11/21/syriza-pasok-main-opposition-party-greece/)]. With Tzakri reaffirming her intention to resign from her leadership position, it creates a power vacuum that could destabilize the party’s current structure and strategy.
**Editor:** What do you think is prompting these resignations at this moment?
**Maria Vassiliou:** There could be several factors at play. Internal disagreements over strategy, policy direction, or even personal grievances often influence such decisions. Additionally, the political atmosphere in Greece is quite dynamic, especially with the upcoming electoral challenges. This might lead figures within the party to re-evaluate their roles and affiliations [[1](https://www.keeptalkinggreece.com/2024/11/21/syriza-pasok-main-opposition-party-greece/)].
**Editor:** How might these changes affect SYRIZA’s prospects moving forward?
**Maria Vassiliou:** The immediate future may be challenging for SYRIZA. With key figures resigning, the party risks losing cohesion and confidence from voters. Moreover, these developments could embolden rival parties, such as PASOK, to capitalize on any perceived weaknesses. If SYRIZA cannot quickly consolidate its leadership and clarify its direction, it might struggle to maintain its role as the main opposition [[1](https://www.keeptalkinggreece.com/2024/11/21/syriza-pasok-main-opposition-party-greece/)].
**Editor:** Thank you, Maria, for this insightful analysis. We will continue to monitor how these developments unfold in SYRIZA and their implications for Greek politics.
**Maria Vassiliou:** My pleasure. It will certainly be interesting to see how the party navigates these turbulent times.
