Tsipras: Society's resounding response to the regime of high prices, insecurity and corruption that shrinks democracy
Main opposition SYRIZA-Progressive Alliance leader Alexis Tsipras described Wednesday's strike mobilization as a "resounding response" by the workers and the Greek society "to the regime of high prices, profiteering, insecurity, corruption and indignity."
In his statement, Tsipras said that the strike mobilization gives a resounding response "to the regime of the Mitsotakis government, which shrinks democracy and plunges the Greek society into despair. Every passing day makes the rich richer, the middle class poor and the poor desperate."
"It is a strong message that the people can provide a way out. This will be achieed with their active presence, and of course with the prospect of a major political change in the polls," he underlined.
The leader of the main opposition underlined that "there is an alternative solution to protect the Greek society."
He said that "the country cannot be the worst in Europe in prices, in profiteering, in deaths from the pandemic, worst in wages", noting that "there is an alternative way with support for wages, support for work and social justice. And it will come quickly."
