The situation could be described as the absolute impasse. PASOK has now … locked up third place in polls With rates clearly below expectations at a time when the risk of losing the role of the opposition has begun to hover as long as SYRIZA’s cooperation with MPs of the New Left is committed. An evolution that would mean PASOK’s restoration to the Status European elections.
At the same time, Metron Analysis’s latest findings show that Nikos Androulakis’s own negative rates by citizens are alarmingly high, further hope that political recovery is possible in the coming months. Commonly, at this stage nothing is going well in PASOK.
Harilaou Trikoupi trapped in her strategy so far now feels that she has to change the narrative or propose something different that will make society start listening to what she has to say. Leadership’s belief that in the end, that is, above the ballot boxes, citizens will positively evaluate PASOK is perceived either as a personal desire or as a inability to implement a new project that will not, however, escape the declared position for the autonomous course of the movement and its exclusion.
Obviously, in the opposition, there is a reflection on the course of the party. Even the dilemmas they project are relentless: a consequence of rewarding or risk prospects and reversals with the possibility of gaining a large part of the progressive world? In Harilaou Trikoupi, they obviously evaluate the measurements of public opinion. And they realize that the consistency and institutionality of the party do not constitute – at least at this time – factors capable of moving wider masses. The finding that the world is in a phase that refuses to hear and welcome serious suggestions is frustrating. But it is confirmed by the events that show that no matter how much PASOK’s regional conferences are successful and no matter how the movement presents its program like this for housing, people need more.
In Harilaou Trikoupi they know that there are no magic recipes. And that is why at the beginning of the Holy Week they will try to find ways to “awaken” progressive citizens who are obviously looking for something “different” (the navigation of the cruise freedom) does not necessarily mean that they are identified with him. The fact that the ND government has begun to stabilize at the low level of its performance by stopping the downward trend but PASOK continues to lose strength shows that more initiatives are needed. In a distressed intra -party environment in which there is also a former minister who will inevitably intensify.
The program is continuing normally with PASOK’s fourth regional conference in the Cyclades. On Monday, according to Harilaou Trikoupi, Nikos Androulakis will discuss the impact of Trump’s tariff policy on Greek products with the representatives of the exporting association.
