[01] Tsipras: 'We have to go to early elections'
ANA-MPA -- Main opposition Radical Left Coalition (SYRIZA) president
Alexis Tsipras on Wednesday blamed Prime Minister Antonis Samaras for
the atmosphere of tension, scare-mongering and destabilisation that
had been created.
Addressing his party's Political Secretariat, Tsipras said that "the
government leads the country to an unprecedented dead end" and underlined
the need for early elections.
He said that "after the Paris fiasco and the Berlin fiasco now is the turn
of the Washington fiasco to confirm the virtual reality of the 'success
story' and reveal the dramatic failure of the Samaras government".
Tsipras said that he asked the prime minister in parliament "to stop the
tension escalation plans and the destabilisation efforts and called for
elections held in a coordinated and orderly manner".
"Instead, the prime minister preferred to extend the tension and the
destabilisation scare tactics for another four months," Tsipras said.
He also added that government officials are bringing back scenarios that
place people's bank savings at risk and expressed certainty that "the
government effort to undermine SYRIZA will not destabilise the country".
