SYRIZA left with 45 MPs

It is recalled that the two MPs announced their departure from the party on the sidelines of the episodic meeting of the SYRIZA Central Committee.

Euclides Tsakalotos and Peti Perkas had made it clear that they do not intend to hand over the parliamentary seats to SYRIZA and that they will remain as independent MPs.

Speaking to MEGA, channel today, Ms. Perka reiterated that she will not hand over her seat.

“I will not give up my seat. I consider that the one who has moved from the line of the radical Left, with which I have received a fresh mandate from my region to serve, is the new president and the new SYRIZA. I have no right not to follow the mandate of the people of Florina.”

She had announced that “I will talk to the speaker of the Parliament and I will probably go to meet him tomorrow and express my desire to leave”.

In any case, SYRIZA’s Parliamentary Group now has 45 MPs.
