Mr Mitsotakis is the manager of the disaster, literally and figuratively», he stressed. Alexis Tsipras repeating the demand of SYRIZA-PS for elections now «to protect human life and social cohesion».
In a television interview on SKAI TV and the show «Atairistoi», the president of SYRIZA-PS stressed that the Kyriakos Mitsotakis has proven to have great inability to manage the crises facing the country, the pandemic, and the inefficiency, and has made - as he said - a joke of the staff state.
«We want to put a stop to this disaster.’, he stressed. «It is good that they do not remember the pandemic only when it suits them. All over Europe elections have been held in the midst of a pandemic, in KINAL happened two months ago,» he noted, adding that the pandemic cannot be a pretext at a time when the country is in an economic and social deadlock. He even sounded the alarm that there could be a shift of citizens to the extreme right, as happened with the Golden Dawn during the crisis. «The anger should be expressed politically», He reported.
On the front of accuracy, Alexis Tsipras accused the government of following a policy that weakened the intervention of the state, the PPC and the control mechanisms. «Mr Mitsotakis did not have the capacity to understand that a tsunami of precision is coming that would have the characteristics of permanence», he noted. As he underlined, households, professionals and farmers are now facing an existential problem, cannot afford the bills, fuel costs and increases in basic goods.
As regards the DEI, Alexis Tsipras stressed that the way of managing the energy crisis with electricity subsidies is wrong, which people have not understood. «It's like subsidizing the cartels, the obscenity.», he noted. After recalling that in the 4.5 years that SYRIZA ruled under difficult conditions and memoranda, did not raise a single euro in electricity bills and reduced VAT on energy to the lowest level, he stressed that when SYRIZA becomes government again, PPC will regain capital D - i.e. Public - in its operation. He stressed that will freeze tariffs, as President Macron did in France and that there will be extensive controls.
Al. Tsipras referred once again to the package of measures proposed by SYRIZA-PS: Reduction of VAT on fuel to the lowest levels allowed by the EU, reduction of VAT on basic goods, refund of VAT on agricultural oil and increase of the minimum wage to 800 euros.
