The return of PASOK president George Papandreou is expected by top
executives of the party, in order for him to initiate an official
discussion on the future. A month after his..
resignation as PM, Mr.
Papandreou has not expressed a official stance on anything, and there
are requests from within the party that there should be a meeting.
All this time, there have been continuing appointments made by
candidates for the leadership of the party, either between themselves or
with members. A bout of meetings had been started by the PASOK leader
almost immediately after his resignation. Before leaving for South
Africa, he had had discussions with Members Franciscos Parasiris,
Yiannis Michelogiannis and Maria Kyriakopoulou.
The information reported yesterday morning on protothema.gr wants the
President of PASOK convening the institutions of the party within the
next week.
This past week, two out of the three "reformers", Andreas Loverdos and
Diamantopoulou, met with Evangelos Venizelos and discussed the
developments within the party. Reportedly, they agreed to make do with a
little more patience ... to allow Mr. Papandreou to open up the debate
as he sees fit.
How Members will choose a leader
The factors that will determine the final choice of each member will be
threefold. The first is the personal interest of everyone, the second is
the future of the party and the third is the perspective that will be
given by each of the candidates on Greece’s exit from the current
crisis .
In individual conversations, MEPs reveal their anxiety about a possible
triple divide of the party, so they insist on talking with stakeholders
about leadership and the need for uniting public discourse. Self-
criticism will also play an important role, while the presentation of
ideological positions and principles that benefit the community will
weigh upon developments.
Within this framework, the position to be taken by Mr. Papandreou is
key. The delay is expected to only aggravate the situation, both within
PASOK and in terms of the relations of the party with the social strata
which seem to have left it to fend for itself.
