Jiorgos Siakantaris<\/b> may now side with Alexis Tsipras<\/b> but a few years ago he was saying the worst about the former prime minister and Syriazas<\/b>.<\/p>\n
Jiorgos Siakandaris<\/b> has been installed as the head of the Working Group of the Tsipras<\/b> Institute<\/a><\/b> while the former prime minister himself announced the well-known writer’s collaboration with him with drum rolls. In fact, he is one of the persons who play a key role in the organization of Alexis Tsipras’s new political project<\/b>.<\/p>\n
But Giorgos Siakantaris<\/b> a few years ago did not say the best about Alexis Tsipras<\/b>. In fact, he was saying… the worst.<\/p>\n
Specifically, just two years ago, in an interview, explaining the continuous decline of SYRIZA<\/b>, he stressed that the “bad governance of SYRIZA<\/b>” was to blame. In fact, in the same interview he claimed that the opposition Syriza’s<\/b> government was worse than his Syriza<\/b> government: “The Syriza<\/b> is something unprecedented: it convinced more about its governance than its opposition. Therefore, his bad opposition has worn down this party too.”<\/p>\n
In 2024, the well-known professor and author was talking about Alexis Tsipras<\/b>‘s bad governance and opposition. After all, he himself was a fierce opponent of Syriza<\/b> during the years of Tsipras<\/b> government.<\/p>\nThe shitstorm<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n
But the head of the Tsipras<\/b> Institute working group came out a week ago in Naftemporiki and said exactly the opposite: he called the Tsipras government the… “the best government of the last decades”! But what has changed in such a short period of time? <\/p>\n
How about the fact that the professor was offered a political position? Because his role is very important in the organization of the Tsipras<\/b> party.<\/p>\n
And most importantly, what do Alexis Tsipras<\/b>‘s former comrades in Syriza<\/b> and the New Left<\/b> say, now that they know that such a person, who used to say the worst about the Syriza<\/b> government, is at the forefront of the new political venture? <\/p>\n
Because let’s not kid ourselves, calling the Syriza<\/b> government bad and then two years later finding it to be the best in recent years is a magnificent fucking stunt. Similar in scope to that of Alexis Tsipras<\/b> in 2015.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
