Responding to Samaras’ statement that the country is exiting the crisis, is ready for the EU presidency and the “worst fears of others were proven false,” SYRIZA accused Samaras of paving the way for a presidency subordinated to the memoranda and austerity.

“Samaras has no other strategy for Europe and an exit from the crisis apart from an insistence on the same neoliberal policy of dismantling the welfare state and workers’ rights,” the announcement said.

SYRIZA underlined that the prime minister should understand that development and investments need a specific policy other than austerity measures and fiscal discipline, adding that the European Left will play a leading role in the struggles of EU member states and the submission of alternative proposals for the future of Europe.
