Stefanos Kasselakis: “I will be nominated because the majority wants me president”

“I will be nominated because the vast majority want me president and will express himself at the conference,” said late Wednesday night (30/10/24) in a television interview. Speaking in “Contra”, Stefanos Kasselakis, a few hours after the new “no” for his nomination from the Political Secretariat of SYRIZA, stressed that “what they do is the tombstone of SYRIZA and is not even in the charter”. “They spent so many hours writing a decision and blaming me for the offices, for the site and thinking how these executives who ruled the country, devote so many hours to dealing with a site. That means they know what mistake they have made.” “We go to the conference normally. Don’t hear that the process is over, nothing has changed. This conference can cancel the withdrawal of trust and that is its role,” Stefanos Kasselakis said. For Alexis Tsipras “From me I always have my appreciation. He gave me my first steps in politics. I think for a long time we had a good relationship. I was shocked at the conference with the questioning I took, I tried to heal this relationship with everyone. I was hoping there would be more contact by the European elections and there was no proper response… The conference is the highest institution. If he wishes to return to the front line, the process at the conference is open to everyone.” Syriza will be liquidated “I am not going to shorten Syriza. I think that if this group does not hear the majority of the base, SYRIZA will be liquidated and there will be no SYRIZA,” Stefanos Kasselakis stressed, talking about his efforts to exclude him from claiming the presidency of SYRIZA. He added that “if I lose in the polls, I will remain in Syriza”.
