[01] Tsipras at party event

He stressed that he and his party will not embark on a war of attrition with the Renewal Wing and stressed the need for a new contract in the framework of the Radical Left Coalition (SYRIZA).

Inaugurating the session of the party's Central Political Committee, Tsipras criticised government policy, saying that "the government majority is hanging from a thread" and that "it is in a state of anxiety due to the antipopular measures that it has taken."

Tsipras further said that the party's targets in the near future are the social security issue, labour issues and the question of privatisations.

Moreover, he accused the two mainstream parties for the scandals, stressing that "there is a derby between them as to who stole the most."

Tsipras wenty on to say that the Left is not part of the problem and that the party will soon be presenting its own plan.

The results of the election for a secretary and a new Central Political Committee are expected to be announced on Saturday night.
