Therefore, what he says about the former prime minister carries particular weight. <\/p>\n<p>The former minister was asked in an interview something very simple by journalist <b>Akis Pavlopoulos<\/b>: why <b>Alexis Tsipras<\/b> will be better now that he is back, when he ruled with not so good results and does not seem to have changed much. An obvious and logical question. <\/p>\n<p>However, Kostas Gavroglou&#8217;s answer cannot be described with the word logical alone. And it shows exactly how <b>Alexis Tsipras<\/b> is seen by the people around him: as the Messiah of the Left with what this may mean for their political crisis. <\/p>\n<p>So <b>Kosta Gavroglou<\/b> left <b>Aki Pavlopoulos<\/b> speechless, as he compared the return of <b>Alexis Tsipras<\/b> to the return of <b>Konstantinos Karamanlis<\/b> after the dictatorship. Admittedly, this argument is not subject to logical criticism. <\/p>\n<p>As the former minister responded, justifying Alexis Tsipras&#8217; return with a new party, &#8220;Why was <b>Constantine Karamanlis<\/b> another <b>Karamanlis<\/b> after the dictatorship?  Tell me.&#8221;  <\/p>\n<p>In fact, when the journalist asked him how he could compare <b>Alexis Tsipras<\/b> with <b>Constantine Karamanlis<\/b>, he replied that history would be the judge. <\/p>\n<p>In short, not only did he compare <b>Alexis Tsipras<\/b> with <b>Constantine Karamanlis<\/b> but he did not answer anything of substance: we did not learn why the former prime minister would now be a better governor but we heard an off-the-wall answer. <\/p>\n<p>Of course, with these executives next to <b>Alexis Tsipras<\/b>, no other answer is needed. Clearly he will be the same and unchanging. <\/p>\n<p> <b>His interview follows:<\/b> <\/p>\n<p> <b><\/b> <\/p>\n<figure>\n<div class=\"embed-responsive\">   <\/div>\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\n    Costas Gavroglou went too far with his expression of adoration for Alexis Tsipras.<\/p>\n<p>    Costas Gavroglou, a former education minister in the government&#8217;s &#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-6053","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\/6053","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=6053"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6053\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=6053"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=6053"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=6053"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
