Autonomous course, programmatic dialogue with parties and movements of the wider progressive space, but certainly not reconnecting and in direct time with the SYRIZA Progressive alliance decided after a two -day intense intra -party processes its Central Committee Reardeepening even more the political isolation of Koumoundourou.
Although the vote of the Lucas Katseli As a candidate for the Presidency of the Republic at the end of 2024, he showed the way to re -order former and now “comrades” of the old “SYRIZA SYRIZA”, however wounds and wounds before and after the “Kasselaki era” still open and still open and still open to the new. Not definitive and positive decisions towards Koumoundourou.
Despite the expectations cultivated by the latter, expectations that even touched the formation of a joint parliamentary group between SYRIZA and the New Left in the coming period, the resistances that the party’s secretary has raised in recent days, Gabriel Sakellaridisas well as the “umbrella” executives with pre -extinguishing Euclide They were confirmed in the most negative development for Koumoundourou, which hastened in the last days on the one hand to propose 10+1 axes as the start of the program dialogue between the progressive forces, but also to announce the conference in late May, Opposition of the opposition, in the face of the possibility of today’s new MPs of the New Left.
The backdrop
However, As reported by protothema.grthe climate has been particularly strained since yesterday, when the work of the New Left Central Committee began, as opposed to the “road map” suggested by the President of the New Left, Alexis Haritsis With a horizon of cooperation with SYRIZA, the party secretary appeared in his own context, Gabriel Sakellaridisreaching the brink of split.
It should be noted that Mr. Sakellaridis, like Euclid Tsakalotos, had described as a “caricature” the formation of a “Folkfire“In the example of France, if only the new left and SYRIZA were involved in it.
With two contrasting texts deposited by the two top faces of the party, the phones “caught fire” last Saturday night to follow their fire brigade on the one hand. Iliopoulos – Carpentry And on the other hand, a working group with the participation of all the “tribes” of the party to find a common place and avoid a new split of the tested (electoral and poll) party. Like that, The one and final text of the political decision of the Central Committee of the New Left (which was voted on yesterday by a majority of about 10-15 white) it finally secured the unity of the party, but rejects any joint parliamentary group with SYRIZA MS, as well as electoral partnership with it under pressure.
On the contrary, the New left She prefers a two -month five -point programming dialogue with her conference in late June, to have reportedly “clarify the landscape in SYRIZA”, as some of her executives wish.
In detail, the announcement of the new left
The text of the Central Committee’s political decision on the course of the new left was approved by a wide majority.
It was decided to hold the New Left Planning Conference in late June. On the way to this, the new Left launches a large campaign entitled “The Left Hearing”.
At the same time, specific initiatives of action and dialogue were decided inside and outside Parliament by calling on all parties of the left and progressive opposition, to personalities, citizens and operators. For the programmatic debate that will focus on the great controversy of our time: the war economy, the welfare state, the institutions and the rights, the climate transition.
The decision of the 1st Congress of the New Left on the establishment of a People’s Front is reaffirmed as the only and main response to the social demand for the overthrow of the Mitsotakis regime and the emergence of a government of direct and radical changes in every field of daily life, but without hasty movements.
In addition, the New Left Century rejects scenarios for welding parliamentary groups and insists on starting a program dialogue to give a convincing response to the Mitsotakis regime.
The “recording” of Tsakalotou
Although “united” and “antitrust” they entered the suffering of a common political decision yesterday, the bridge blast button between SYRIZA and New Left was pressed by the former minister and a Member of Parliament, Euclid Tsakalotosas he suggested an amendment to the text of the decision, which was voted in with 80 in favor and 57 against. Only the amendment of Mr Tsakalotos, who, according to some of his comrades, “has been strictly satisfied with his intra -party audience”, describes that a “unilateral cooperation” is not promoting for the “People’s Front”, meaning … SYRIZA.
In this way, the Koumoundourou – Patissia sympathy scenario in the following months has been postponed indefinitely, if it does not end up in the calendars, given that forces within both parties are strongly resistant to their potential re -construction. For the cooler, the scenario of the SYRIZA -New Left Union “requires a preparation”, though it remains alive, though for Patision executives they need “more steps and less accomplished”, that is, a greater depth in his approach to his executives.
For the New leftAfter all, a “success story” of repatriation would partially count in favor of the new Koumoundouros leadership team, but “it would not create sparks of excitement”, as its experienced executives commented, wanting to explain that more massive processes were needed.
In this perspective, the ‘Peoples front»He still gathers hopes if others respond to Patision’s call, such as”World‘His Peter Kokkalisthe ‘Do‘His Nikos Kotzia etc, although everyone is in the background in the inability of existing progressive parties to effectively “intercept” the cruise freedom of Life Constantopoulou.
