SYRIZA PS Parliamentary Group

Almost as time was running out, yesterday afternoon, the Syriza Progressive Alliance‘s stance on defence spending crystallized, with the budget debate culminating this evening.

The morale of the members of the “87” group within the SYRIZA Progressive Alliance has been uplifted due to the high turnout at Tsipras’s event at the Piraeus Municipal Theater on the economy and inflation, which occurred just before the intense internal party battle for the election of delegates and the organization of the extraordinary Congress.

Trench warfare lasted until the early hours of today in SYRIZA – Progressive Alliance, as the six-hour meeting of the Parliamentary Group was not enough to defuse internal tensions but instead deepened the rift between the party leader,

Today finds the SYRIZA Progressive Alliance in a new internal landscape, as the challenge to party leader Stefanos Kasselakis by independent MP for Chania and former strong supporter, Pavlos Polakis, has dramatically altered the situation for the main opposition party.
