Categorically opposed to any possibility of post-election alliances, Adonis Georgiadis, speaking on Friday (06/12) on ERTnews Radio.

The Minister of Health emphasized that the outcome of the upcoming elections will be determined exclusively by the will of the people and not by behind-the-scenes negotiations.

In addition, he made it clear that the sole objective of is to win an outright majority, ruling out any scenario involving coalition governments.

At the same time, Mr. Georgiadis noted that voters must know in advance that “there is absolutely no possibility of anyone cooperating with anyone else.”

He further assessed that the political conditions for a joint path within the Center-Left do not exist, nor between PASOK and the Greek Solution.

Finally, he put a definitive end to speculation about a leadership change in New Democracy, emphasizing that Kyriakos Mitsotakis remains the absolute and undisputed leader of the party.

Furthermore, Mr. Georgiadis noted that voters must know in advance that “there is absolutely no possibility of anyone cooperating with anyone else.”

No coalition government

The Minister of Health attempted to put an end to the recent debate surrounding potential political alliances after the elections.

“I like it when people go to the polls having been told the truth,” he said, arguing that citizens must know that there are no plans for a coalition government.

He even appeared certain that a potential political alliance between PASOK and Alexis Tsipras would cause serious upheaval within the Charilaos Trikoupis. He even cited historic party figures, such as Evangelos Venizelos and Anna Diamantopoulou, to argue that such a scenario is not politically realistic.

Barbs aimed at Tsipras and Androulakis

Adonis Georgiadis devoted a large part of his remarks to developments within the opposition, directly questioning the momentum of ELAS. As he argued, Alexis Tsipras has pulled off a “public relations ploy,” since, as he said, “he left in 2023 as a failure with 17.5% and is returning in 2026 as a success with 15.5%.”

At the same time, he attributed the former prime minister’s reappearance to PASOK’s inability to capitalize on its position as the official opposition. In a particularly sharp tone, he spoke of Nikos Androulakis’s “personal political failure,” arguing that PASOK had missed a historic opportunity to establish itself as the dominant force in the opposition.

Despite his criticism, he acknowledged that the recent event held by the PASOK president in Drapetsona signaled, in his view, a shift toward a more substantive political agenda, with references to everyday life, unemployment, and transportation.

“Midsummer night’s fantasies” the scenarios regarding a leadership change in New Democracy

The Minister of Health was particularly scathing regarding the scenarios about a leadership change in New Democracy.

As he noted, he considered the relevant discussions to be “comical and ridiculous,” noting that they have essentially died down today, as New Democracy continues to lead by a wide margin in the polls.

“Kyriakos Mitsotakis is the undisputed leader of New Democracy,” he emphasized, describing any other discussion as “summer night’s fantasies.”

What he said about Samaras and Karamanlis

Adonis Georgiadis also addressed the discussions surrounding Antonis Samaras, following the prime minister’s public statement regarding the possibility of forming a new party.

As he said, Kyriakos Mitsotakis spoke respectfully of the former prime minister, acknowledging his contribution both as president of New Democracy and as prime minister during a critical period for the country.

At the same time, he argued that those who have been honored by New Democracy with top positions also bear an increased responsibility toward the party.

His stance was similar regarding Kostas Karamanlis, about whom he said he could not imagine him doing anything that might turn against New Democracy.
