Greek rage to force bailout changes: Tsipras
By Michael Stott and Dina Kyriakidou
ATHENS | Tue Jun 19,
2012 12:05pm EDT
(Reuters) - Though it didn't win last
weekend's election, Greece's
fast-rising radical leftist leader says his party has won the argument against
the austerity measures keeping Greece
in the eurozone and will inevitably come to power.
"What Syriza has been saying all along is
that the bailout plan is not viable and cannot go on," party chief Alexis
Tsipras told Reuters in his first interview since last Sunday's parliamentary
election. "Now they all recognize this."
Indeed, the conservative New Democracy party
won the most seats in the new parliament on a promise to push through spending
cuts imposed by European authorities. But after the vote, party chief Antonis
Samaras said the eurozone's memorandum of understanding with Greece over its
130-billion-euro bailout should be modified.
Tsipras, a charismatic 37-year-old former
student communist, predicted that the newly elected Greek government would fail
because it was based on "spent political forces", paving the way for
Syriza to assume power.
New Democracy and the centre-left PASOK party
have taken turns ruling Greece
since the country's military dictatorship ended in 1974 and many citizens blame
them for its current plight.
Syriza won 27 percent of the vote in Sunday's
election, up from 17 percent at a previous inconclusive election in May. That
made it the second largest party behind New Democracy and delighted its
supporters, who partied late into the night outside Athens University
after results came in.
Relaxed and confident in his Athens headquarters,
where the waiting room sports a portrait of revolutionary icon Che Guevara,
Tsipras said: "Nobody else but us can carry out the deep reforms the
country needs because we are not corrupt or worn out. Sooner or later, we will
get this opportunity."
ALTERNATIVE POLITICAL MOVEMENT
Tsipras said Syriza's rapid rise showed how
Greeks were channeling their rage at the austerity measures - which have sent
the economy into a deep recession and pushed unemployment close to 23 percent -
into an alternative political movement.
Given public anger at Greece's
long-established parties, he added, "if Syriza didn't exist today the
alternative would be extremes, chaos and Golden Dawn," a neo-Nazi party.
"We will prepare a lot better to exercise
a much more combative and responsible opposition," he pledged. "And,
obviously, to organize to be able to claim government when the opportunity
arises."
Syriza's key demands are for wealthy tax
evaders to be taxed, and for what Tsipras calls "huge and unbelievable
waste in the public sector" to be stamped out, by making it function more
effectively.
"We have talked about the need to stop
people collecting salaries for doing nothing, about reducing the number of
ministers' advisers and government officials by half, and curtailing MPs and
ministers' wages and privileges," he said.
Tsipras said he opposed the terms of the
bailout because it didn't help ordinary Greeks who had suffered most from
austerity and recession. "It is a bailout for banks and a sinking of the
needs of the real economy and society," he said.
Greek politicians have turned their fire on Germany for
insisting on deep spending cuts despite the country's deep recession and
Tsipras had a special message for Chancellor Angela Merkel.
Merkel "must not insist on the mistake of
austerity", he said. "Europe cannot
march on united if it continues to support these barbaric measures."
Citing the spreading of the eurozone crisis to
other countries as proof that Greece
was not the root cause, Tsipras added: "All those people who said the
problem was the lazy Greeks are now seeing the problems in Spain and Italy too. Something else is
wrong."
RAGE AS A WEAPON TO NEGOTIATE
Although Germany
has resisted anything more than minor changes to the Greek bailout, a senior
Eurozone official privately agreed with Athens.
"Anybody who would say that we need not, and cannot renegotiate the
(memorandum) is delusional," the official, who declined to be named, told
Reuters in Brussels.
Greece's near-bankrupt government will run out of money next month unless it
receives a fresh infusion of cash from international lenders. That will depend
on the findings of a team of monitors who are due in Athens to check progress on the austerity
program.
Asked about strategy after Sunday's election,
Tsipras signaled that Syriza would not call its supporters onto the streets to
protest against the austerity measures. The bloc of 12 leftist groupings would
instead focus its energy on creating "a shield of protection for those on
the margins".
"Solidarity and resistance are both
important, but right now solidarity is the most important," he said. "Our
role is to be inside and outside parliament, applauding anything positive and
condemning all that is negative and proposing alternatives."
Clearly relishing his new-found international
fame and his fast-rising popularity at home, Tsipras suggested his greatest
moment was yet to come however.
"Greece needs courageous and
decisive leaders who can use the rage of our people...as a weapon to negotiate
for the benefit of the country", he said.

Η Ελληνική οργή επιβάλει αλλαγές στο πρόγραμμα διάσωσης: Τσίπρας
«αν ο
ΣΥΡΙΖΑ δεν υπήρχε, σήμερα η εναλλακτική λύση θα ήταν τα άκρα ,
το χάος και η "Χρυσή Αυγή", ένα νεο-ναζιστικό
κόμμα»!!!
«Θα προετοιμαστούμε
πολύ καλύτερα για να ασκήσουμε μια πιο μαχητική και υπεύθυνη αντιπολίτευση»,υποσχέθηκε.
«Και,
προφανώς, να οργανωθούμε ώστε να είναι είμαστε σε θέση να διεκδικήσουμε την κυβέρνηση όταν μας δοθεί η ευκαιρία»
Ερωτηθείς
σχετικά με τη στρατηγική μετά τις εκλογές της Κυριακής, ο Αλέξης Τσίπρας
επεσήμανε ότι ο ΣΥΡΙΖΑ δεν θα καλέσει τους υποστηρικτές του να βγουν στους
δρόμους για να διαμαρτυρηθούν ενάντια στα μέτρα λιτότητας. Αντι αυτού, το
μπλοκ των 12 αριστερών συνιστωσών θα επικεντρώσει την ενέργειά του, στη δημιουργία «μιας ασπίδας προστασίας για
όσους βρίσκονται στο περιθώριο".
« Η Αλληλεγγύη
και η αντίσταση είναι και τα δυο σημαντικά, αλλά τώρα η αλληλεγγύη είναι το πιο
σημαντικό», είπε. "Ο
ρόλος μας είναι να είμαστε μέσα και έξω από το κοινοβούλιο, χειροκροτώντας κάθε
θετικό και καταδικάζοντας όλα τα αρνητικά
και προτείνοντας εναλλακτικές λύσεις".
«Η
Ελλάδα χρειάζεται θαρραλέους και
αποφασιστικούς ηγέτες που μπορούν να
χρησιμοποιήσουν την οργή του λαού μας ... ως όπλο για να διαπραγματευτούν προς όφελος της χώρας", είπε»
Περαστικά ...και παρακαλώ εκ των καλάμων σας αφιππεύσατε.
