[01] Tsipras: From the darkness of austerity to the light of democracy
ANA/MPA---Greece on January 25 will close the door to the past, SYRIZA
leader Alexis Tsipras wrote in an article published in Spanish paper
El Pais, according to a party announcement.
"The victory of SYRIZA is the hope of change for the world of work and
culture across Europe," he said.
"So that it can take the necessary step forward. From the darkness of
austerity and authoritarianism to the light of democracy, solidarity and
viable growth. For this reason, Greece is only the beginning. Spain is
next. The change starts from the South," he added.
According to Tsipras, "Europe today is not the victim of the crisis
– the crisis ended where it started, in the United States, thanks
to the expansionary monetary and fiscal policy. Europe is a victim of
austerity. It is threatened by the conservative policy of those who
reproduce Ms Merkel's selfish choices to their countries."
"For us, the balance of the crisis is not an option. It is cause for
change. The victory of SYRIZA is a new beginning for the widest possible
cooperation of all progressive and leftist forces of southern Europe,"
he said.
