PASOK – KINAL re -enters introversion, as after the reference to Katerina Batzeli to the ethics committee of the party, The Mayor of Athens Haris Doukas who unsuccessfully claimed PASOK leadership He is intense criticism, through leaks, to the leadership of Nikos Androulakis, talking about selective targeting and “two meters and two weights”.
The referral of the former Minister and Member of the Central Political Committee to EDEKAP, for statements he made on Blue Sky’s television station-describing the official announcement of the party for Nikos Pappas (“Master 13-0”), as “toxic and incorrect” triggered domino reactions.
Harris Doukas, through his associates, blames the leadership of silence and tolerance to other – also divergent – statements executives such as:
- of the parliamentary spokesman who left open the possibility of working with Varoufakis and Konstantopoulou,
- of the Secretary of the KO who described as “graphic” as those demanding elections,
- of the responsible political planning he called the mobilizations for the Tempi “Memorial”,
- and a member of the political center that mistakenly considered the co -signing of a censure proposal with Zoe Konstantopoulou.
Batzeli’s referral by EDEKAP President Nana Vrioni was not accepted, apparently by the mayor’s environment, as an intra -party self -evident, but is perceived as a first episode in a wider gathering strategy around the president – and simultaneously.
Specifically the Duke’s long -suffering from the environment:
“Two meters and two weights cannot be applied. When in statements by the parliamentary spokesman (who said we could work with Varoufaki-Konstantopoulou), the secretary of the KO (who said that those who talk about elections), the responsible political planning (who said it was a “memorial” of the politician) Konstantopoulou) There was no reaction from the leadership, then he cannot selectively deal with a member of the CCI member. “
The most worrying about leadership is that Harry Duke’s reaction is not an isolated. Preceded statements by persons who supported him in intra -party elections, of Odysseus Konstantinopouloswho sent clear messages about the political orientation of the party, but also the hot episode with Evangelia Liakouliwho had an open disagreement with the leadership of the way the opposition is practiced and the strategy was engraved. Of course, this leak shows Diamantopoulou – Geralono who apparently reveals the mayor’s aspirations to clear old accounts as he considers that he did not rely on the in -party elections in the second round of the candidate officials.
The question now is whether it is a series of individual differences or a coordinated attempt to challenge Nikos Androulakis, in the wake and the intense political pressure exerted on polarization and low polls, the debate on alliances and allies.
PASOK Sources: We are working to become a power of government change – those who stayed in the period of intra -party elections to work in the same direction
‘In PASOK We are working to make our party again the power of government change, which the country needs, “the party’s sources emphasize, adding” it will be good for those who are still in the period of intra -party elections to do no work in the same direction, “PASOK sources said.
Geroulanos by Duke: Deads political dialogue with nonsense of the Truth Group
The intense reaction of PASOK – KINAL Pavlos Geroulanou’s parliamentary spokesman was prompted by a report by associates of the Mayor of Athens Harry Doukas to his face. More specifically, Mr. Geroulanou’s associates, they commented that Haris Doukas is downgrading the political dialogue with the nonsense of the Truth Group. “The use of the” arguments “of the Truth Group – for things that Paul Geroulanos has never said, as he has repeatedly underlined in recent weeks even against the prime minister himself who used corresponding nonsense – by Mr. Doukas’ associates through leaks. Too bad, “Paul Geroulanou’s associates commented on.
The Batzeli case may prove to be the turning point for PASOK’s internal cohesion – or the beginning of a new period of controlled crisis with an uncertain outcome. Of course, on the other hand, Nikos Androulakis’ intra -party opponents “throw the glove” and it remains to be seen if he will lift it.
