[01] SYRIZA leader: We will not capitulate to the Memorandum
AMNA--Main opposition SYRIZA leader Alexis Tsipras stressed that "we
will not capitulate to the Memorandums", during a press conference
on Wednesday.
"We will not say 'yes' to the blackmail and threats, we will not
capitulate to the Memorandums," Tsipras said.
Tsipras severely criticized the Greek government on its handling over
the latest developments in Cyprus, adding that in Cyprus there had been
only the people's determination not to accept the development (haircut
of bank deposits), but there had been no determined government or the
appropriate allies.
He blasted the partners in Greece's three-party coalition government of
not knowing, or not wanting the people to remember, the role played by
some important 'no's in history. "It is now clear that the much-advertised
programme for stabilisation and growth was just a 'bubble', and the
only thing that exists is the lenders' raid on this devastated country
to loot as much as they can," he said.amna
Tsipras further said that his party is working on scenarios on which
it will base its negotiations tactic, and "considers it a given fact
that there will be coercion, that the partners will not accept the
overwhelming defeat of their strategy", adding that SYRIZA has a plan
for collaboration with the countries of the European south.
