PS MP

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.

Stefanos Kasselakis has appointed Nikos Pappas as the head of SYRIZA’s Parliamentary Group, aiming to influence the internal dynamics of the party’s Central Committee. This move comes as Pavlos Polakis has announced his intention to table a motion of no-confidence, potentially triggering a process for electing a new party leader.

The “Kasselistas” are escalating their internal power play, pressuring the five alternates on the SYRIZA State List. So far, the first alternate, Popi Tsapanidou, along with the other four candidates who could claim Iliopoulos’ seat, have remained silent.
