[01] Tsipras confident of his victory in elections
ANA/MPA---SYRIZA leader Alexis Tsipras late on Thursday in an interview
with KONTRA TV expressed his confidence on the judgement of the Greek
people and said he is optimistic that his party will win the September
20 elections.
Tsipras once again ruled out the possibility of collaborating with New
Democracy (ND) and expressed doubts over the credibility of polls.
He stressed the importance of parliamentary majority since the country
needs stability and strongly criticised New Democracy and Popular
Unity. The first one because of the left parenthesis followed by
former Prime Minister Antonis Samaras and the second one because it is
responsible for overthrowing the left government.
Rejecting the possibility of cooperation with New Democracy, Tsipras said
that SYRIZA's policy and ideology is highly opposed to that of ND, and
stressed that the prospect of exiting the crisis exists. "Today, we are
better informed, we are down to earth, we have secured funding for three
years, plus the investment Juncker program and the opportunity for direct
investments that will bring us back on the path of growth," he said.
"It is not easy," he added, "but it is possible, while late October early
November we will discuss the debt issue, and this requires a government
that will negotiate hard."
