Charis Dukas has given us another arrogant statement about PASOK and the elections.
The PASOK have an unjustifiable arrogance and conceit, to the point that it makes you wonder about their behaviour. Because Charis Doukas‘s statements can only be described as arrogant.
A few days ago, the mayor of Athens, who is more concerned with the central political scene than with his municipality, explained in a radio interview the reasons why PASOK should come first in the elections. No, he didn’t say anything specific, but he stressed that this is the only way Kyriakos Mitsotakis will leave and that the country needs this supposedly progressive governance that is touted day and night as the cure for all ills.
Somewhere in there, Charis Dukas also posed a dilemma of “PASOK or chaos”, as he unashamedly told the Greek citizens that if they don’t put PASOK first, then disaster will come to the country. Perhaps his melodramatic tone can be justified by the fear of Alexis Tsipras‘s return.
As he said “If PASOK is not the first party, I think it will be a great disaster for the country, so all the cadres must take our responsibility and fight with all our strength to get ND out of the way.”
Besides the fact that all the evidence points to anything but disaster for the country under the current government, we wonder if this desperate message to the people, bordering on political blackmail, is now the official position of PASOK. Because we understand that now that Alexis Tsipras and Maria Karustianou are coming with new parties, PASOK is not first but is in danger of coming in third or fourth.
But to talk about disaster if Nikos Androulakis does not become prime minister, well, that’s going too far.
