The assembly of the Central Committee of the PASOK is formally referred to as to judge the results of the European elections. As issues have developed, it is going to be the primary subject of confrontation for the brand new electoral battle that’s coming, this time for the management of the social gathering. The election, until unexpected, will happen within the fall. Nikos Androulakis does not appear to have a lot room for maneuver.
PaSoK, in the intervening time, is a political pending. The questioning of the management passed off in a quick and intense method and the primary nominations have already appeared. A protracted election interval, which all the pieces factors to will probably be significantly robust, will not be handy for anybody. It’s going to create an environment that may swallow up all different exercise.
Strikes on the chessboard
In current days, curiosity has been targeted on the actions of the mayor of Athens and the technique he’s unfolding. A technique supposed to convey the picture of a candidacy with successful potential.
The transfer by Manolis Christodoulakis to companion with Haris Doukas is a part of this technique. The younger PaSoK MP was seen as one of many candidates for the management of the social gathering, and the estimates have been that he may obtain a very good consequence. He weighed his strikes and determined to help the candidacy of Mr. Doukas. It’s a transfer with a double profit for the mayor of Athens. It offers him energy within the social gathering equipment and reinforces his narrative that he can unite forces inside and inside the PaSoK peripheries.
The collaboration of Haris Doukas and Manolis Christodoulakis was accompanied by a mess of eventualities. The most well-liked desires the settlement to incorporate a footnote in keeping with which, if Mr. Doukas is elected, he’ll nominate Mr. Christodoulakis because the president of the PASoK Parliamentary Group. Either side name the associated rumors “nonsense”. The help of Mr. Christodoulakis to Mr. Doukas additionally removes a headache from the so-called “Papandreic” camp that moved between the 2, now allies. Now such a dilemma doesn’t exist. This parameter can be added to the electoral arithmetic.
Do not underestimate Paul
All these strikes, at first studying, appear to create a bipolar scenario with Nikos Androulakis and Haris Doukas showing because the gladiators of a second spherical. However there are two buts. An unspecified physique will participate within the elections. The poll field will probably be open to all residents who want to participate within the course of. What number of, who and with what moods will they attain the poll field? A PASoK govt whose identify was heard as a candidate for president estimates that “sure, the actions of Doukas create a local weather for strengthening his candidacy, however on the identical time additionally they create counter-mobilizations”. It’s created, as identified, “a local weather of protection in opposition to the aggressive technique adopted by Doukas.
There’s additionally a parameter. It’s formulated with the phrase “do not underestimate the function of Pavlos Geroulanos”. The candidacy of Mr. Geroulanos, which is barely a matter of time earlier than it turns into official, is “properly labored” and in any case will probably be one of many barometers of the management battle. The Member of Parliament of A Athens is aware of the best way to transfer quietly and methodically and his efficiency, as skilled executives report, could also be a shock. Will there be different candidates? It’s attainable although the names which are heard must determine whether or not, as it’s stated, they’re candidates for the honour of arms.’ Androulakis, Doukas and Geroulanos are the important thing figures on this match. Nevertheless, the bets presently need the battle for the management to be a two-person affair.
The final dialog of Androulakis
On Sunday, all eyes are on Nikos Androulakis. The president of PaSoK patiently accepted the cruel criticism he obtained from social gathering officers throughout the current assembly of the Political Council. As his interlocutors say, it’s a must to have loads of persistence listening to executives argue that PaSoK misplaced in Crete, the place it got here first in two prefectures. Throughout this time, many ideas handed via Mr. Androulakis’s thoughts. He appears to have come to the conclusion that this example which has been created within the PASoK can not stay pending. The elections within the fall appear to be a one-way road. Since election dates have already been placed on the desk, any transfer to delay will ship a sign of political weak spot.
The massive concern of Mr. Androulakis is that the method of electing a president doesn’t develop right into a subject wherein the PASOK will undermine what it has achieved thus far. As a result of, as it’s stated, the purpose of second place was not achieved, however the results of PaSoK in comparison with the outcomes of ND and SYRIZA doesn’t justify all this turmoil. In any case, Mr. Androulakis has to face a entrance in opposition to his management and the argument that though PaSoK is taking some steps, it doesn’t appear that, with him in management, he can obtain the decisive leap.
Mr. Androulakis has contacts with executives and MPs of the social gathering, he displays the actions and shuffling of the interior social gathering deck. What are his playing cards? Is that this mechanism it’s stated to have nonetheless going sturdy? In any case, the workers of Mr. Androulakis are getting ready for a tricky political and organizational battle. And, as his colleagues say, “Nikos has not stated the final phrase”
