“I am Stefanos. Black. We were born people, not offices.
I apologize.
To you for letting us down.
From the young people who brought us to the top party in the European elections.
From the families of the old campaigners who shared a bite of bread, not a handful of offices.
From the 150,000 citizens who lined up in the queues just a year ago.
See. Now you know.
Nothing more.
Look to tomorrow.
We are trying to build a SYRIZA that doesn’t drive us out but fits us all.
A new unity at the grassroots, in society, in real life.
Our SYRIZA will give all the power to our members and friends.
Our SYRIZA will not beg to become a component of the complex.
Our SYRIZA will be autonomous and self-reliant.
Today, the voice of the many.
Tomorrow, the government of progress.
End of the devaluation of human life by the Mitsotakis government.
End of life by the piece.
We take back our dignity.
We are building a country that provides social protection, security, well-paid jobs, and gives equal opportunities for all to pursue their dreams.
The government is stepping down and you know it.
In its place:
Or a supposedly center-left construction will come in the service of the cabal.
Or there will come our Syriza, a renewed, indestructible, and incorruptible party of the Modern Left.
Syriza is either reborn now or it goes down in history as a memory.
The old has strong roots.
The new may be slow, it may meet obstacles, it may fall, but it rises again. It always reaches the end of the road. It is always born.
This path of the new I ask you to walk it together.
Your support is needed as never before.
I have no party apparatus.
I have and have only you.
So don’t wait for election time for President.
Get the OMs and precincts now.
Register immediately for membership in SYRIZA by October 11 so you can vote for delegates.
Make your voice heard.
You can make a loud noise: “I’m here!”
“I’m here,” so that no nomination is excluded.
“I’m here,” so that no voter is excluded from the ballot box.
Tomorrow passes through your hands today.
Personally, I don’t feel betrayed, but more determined than ever to never betray you.
I am here because you are here.
And we are here for our Syriza.
For our country, for our lives, for our future.
