For its municipality Athens, but also the PASOK talked to mayor of Athens Harris Doukas.
“There is a need for an open conference and PASOK to call on citizens.”
Then the conversation went to PASOK And in the fact that as an official opposition he has not managed to gain something from the losses recorded by the ND.
“The political center is a process that I too had suggested, I am involved. It is the truth that we have a very big fall, I get upset about it. I think things have to change. My logic is about trying to make another narrative, a comprehensive approach to changing the country’s direction. PASOK must shape the conditions to be the next progressive government of the country. To do this, it takes an open conference that needs to be announced immediately. Make a big call to citizens so that we can put all the issues for the governance of the place. We will have elected instruments everywhere, we will activate a lot of people, we will openly and democratically discuss all issues. To make a jump greater than wear, “noted Harris Doukas.
‘The political center It has to meet before Easter. We make suggestions. The problem at PASOK It is that we are in a very fluid period as a whole for the political system. PASOK makes suggestions, but it has a difficulty in shaping an agenda, making a front page with a proposal. One reason is that it does not have much communication power because it is not a government. But it may be to blame and that we do not have a structured alternative approach. That is, in many cases it seems that the proposal is a complement to a government approach, as a refined ND proposal. This confuses the world. It is in the wrong direction, the proposal should be otherwise, so that the people who are unhappy can find in PASOK, “the Athens mayor said, referring to PASOK.
“We do not win if we say that it is good that the government has heard a proposal and incorporated it. The government has made proposals for social home. We must say that in every very great regeneration, 10% become a social home. I do not think it is difficult to apply everywhere, “the mayor of Athens told OPEN.
“Androulakis listens to many and shapes his view”
A few months ago, Haris Doukas clashed for PASOK’s leadership with Nikos Androulakis. “I believe that Nikos Androulakis has his own view. He listens to many and shapes a view. I don’t know if it’s Duke, Constantinopoulos or someone else. We have to make a complete narrative. Not to be fragmented. ND puts an agenda and go there and we button. We have to make headlines and show the other way. In many cases we have not been able to be distinct, “the mayor of Athens said.
“The government is served by a multiplication and the fact that PASOK has difficulty creating a treaty of overcoming. There is one way: a large structured conference, to call them all and to have a complete narrative and instruments elected everywhere. In order for PASOK to defeat today’s treaty, a progressive people have to come to the party. It takes a call with an autonomous course, “he said shortly afterwards.
Harris Doukas, made it clear that PASOK should not be involved with her Sauce on the proposal of mistrust against the government. “It was wrong The adoption of the proposal of mistrust with Mrs Constantopoulou. Our stigma is confused in many cases. If we say autonomous course, it means that we have a clear choice in the PDD and we do not expect anyone. The autonomous course means that we have a clear choice in the motion of censure and with it. In these critical conditions it is important to have elected instruments, fresh ideas and processes everywhere, so that we can have a greater promotional power, “concluded Mr Doukas.
“In Boston we made a strengthening of relationships with the municipality. We have signed a letter of intentions and the mayor will come, to have a brotherhood. There was a parade for March 25, we honored Hellenism there. There are 150,000 Greeks in the wider area. There is a great core. We have a direct flight to Boston. We made important actions. They have an office to deal with social housing issues, we will make it. We are moving forward with the issues with rent and reconstruction subsidy, but we will build an apartment building with eight apartments that we will give to people in need. In about a year it will be ready. There is an effort with the nursing home, which has a great fortune and we will use it, “he told Open.
The Streff Hill and the sharp increase in tourism in Athens
The Mayor of Athens also made a special reference to the episodes that took place on Streff Hill last weekend, and explained the plan to exploit the extrovert. “The extrovert is a municipal building. We want to use it for a refreshment room. We want social peace on the hill Streff. We want to be an open hill and we were doing very well for over a year. The condemnable episodes took steps backwards. We were in total calm. We did a series of actions, we made improvements, the lighting, the basketball court, the playground. We did a number of legitimacy processes in the extrovert so that people can get coffee, water. I think we will get to total calm again and some will be able to take over the extrovert. They have become condemned events and we must come back to the situation we were, “Haris Doukas said.
“Tourism has increased sharply. Athens 10 years ago had 2.5 million tourists and now has 10 million. We are the first destination throughout Greece. It is very high to increase the pressure of rents and home. We frozen the short -term in three major areas in collaboration with the government. We are in constant communication with shopkeepers and hotels. Citizens must feel that the city is theirs as well, ”he added.
Increasing tourism also brings major problems, which local government must face. “We did a study and saw that we are not Barcelona yet, but we have to act as if we were. The center of Barcelona is purely touristy. The municipality of the city has come into conflict with short -term leasing so that residents can come back. We have to sustain the flows of tourists in a sustainable way, “the mayor of Athens explained.
Works for metro line 4 and the problem with electric skates
One of the issues that concern citizens is the metro line 4, which is to be completed in the coming years. “The subway is a philanthropic and pro -friendly medium that we want very much. All the big cities need it. We would like to be ready tomorrow line 4. I wish they were ready in three years. As a mayor, I face the problem of sheets in public places and squares, which can last for five years. I went to Rome and Constantinople, where the squares are given much earlier. As mayor I want to have the lines quickly. We want the subway to move forward quickly. There are areas where security measures have been observed, as you open the door on specific roads and knock on the sheet. People with disabilities could not go home, “said Haris Doukas.
The skates have multiplied in the capital and in many cases cause significant problems, with the Municipality of Athens oriented to measures that will improve the situation. “We are not against micro -motivation. We see skates on blind routes, on disabled ramps, in bulk on roads vertically, on sidewalks, on islands. This will change. We discussed with the companies and our logic is based on three axes. There will be bans, not to be circulated everywhere. Will decrease their speed for security reasons. There will be 70 parking spaces and when not there, there will be fines in the companies. On Monday (5/5) we will explain them to the companies. The number of skates increased. “
Beyond that, the mayor of Athens was invited to answer the issue that has arisen with the Lycabettus Theater, where the municipality gives a large amount to make concerts in the venue. “The Lycabettus Theater cost 5.5m euros to Greek taxpayers and we pay € 500,000 to the public property management company, is a subsidiary of the Treasury, and 20% of the revenue of each concert. It is a robbery convention signed by Mr Bakoyannis. It is not possible for the ERDD to profit to the expense of the municipalities. It takes a comprehensive reassignment, we are in negotiation and the results so far are not what they should. We pay 40,000 euros each month, while Lycabettus is closed in winter. Operational meetings have been held as we want the terms to change, “he said.
The garbage collection and the table seats
Subsequently, Haris Doukas was asked about the collection of rubbish, but also about the tables, especially since the tourist season begins. “We see the requests through the application. We got staff, we put underground bins, we have a new transfer station, and we go to the race once and release the vehicles. From now on we will boost recycling with brown bins, but we will buy smaller vehicles that will quickly enter a road, especially when there are requests. We have a problem with bank seats as the tourist season begins. We will push hard, we have changed the regulatory and we will go immediately to lift them up. The fines have tripled, “the mayor of Athens said.
‘In commercial triangle Vehicles are not only 7 and 8 in the afternoon, but about ten times a day. There are roads that are absolutely touristy, people eat and have trash next to them. Hotels throughout Europe have bins and the municipal authority says that it will pass at 7am to pick them up. We said three times and there was a problem. We do not want the city to smell and be clean. There are problems in other areas, as we would like to go to vehicles more times, but they go once a day. We have a 50% increase in hotels and the short -term lease by 100%. “
