All the executives who are going to follow him, at least from Attica, plan to attend.<\/p>\n<p>According to reports in recent days and on the occasion of the above event, Koumoundourou is receiving group letters of resignation from executives of the northern Attica sector of <b>SYRIZA<\/b>. It was no coincidence that <b>Kosta Zachariadis<\/b>, a former candidate for <b>SYRIZA<\/b> in the northern sector, stated that <b>the party should roll down the blinds<\/b> and join the <b>Tsipras<\/b> party that is being created.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, not all members share <b>Zachariadis<\/b> statement, as the <b>Polakis<\/b> side knows that they are not welcome in the <b>Tsipras<\/b> party.

On the other hand, there have been MPs who have expressed reservations, mainly about whether <b>Alexis Tsipras<\/b> wants the whole K.O. of <b>Syriza<\/b> in his new party, but also about its political direction, as there is disagreement about the persons who have taken up positions in the former prime minister&#8217;s institute.<\/p>\n<p>However, <b>Socrates Famellos<\/b> himself did not open his cards to anyone. It is obvious that the <b>Syriza<\/b> leadership is in confusion about the future, at the same time that <b>Alexis Tsipras<\/b> is preparing to split his former party once again. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Syriza has been steaming in recent days, with rumours that Alexis Tsipras will announce his new party very soon, something that &#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4795","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-politics"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4795","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=4795"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4795\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=4795"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=4795"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=4795"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
