SYRIZA Maneuvers Post-Conference: The Challenges Ahead with Tsipras on the Horizon

The 5th SYRIZA conference concluded without major issues or accusations, as key opponent of SYRIZA President Socrates Famellos, Paulos Polakis, appeared cooperative in seeking convergence. With all eyes on former Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras and his potential moves to form a new party, SYRIZA leaders are reevaluating their strategies and alliances. Famellos admitted that the party is in transition but emphasized no stagnation or surrender. Meanwhile, uncertainty looms as Tsipras’s next steps remain unclear, impacting cooperation with Famellos. In parallel, Christos Giannoulis expressed optimism for political revival, stating that decisions will only be made once concrete actions occur. Adding to the tension, George Tsipras’s resignation letter surprised many, criticizing the party’s decline since the Kasselaki era and accusing it of failing to address its crisis properly.
