Tsipras’s Syriza wins Greek election - The Washington Post
Keywords:
Alexis Tsipras of the Syriza Party stresses in his election campaign in September 2015 that even though he has accepted the Third Bailout Program from the EU, only Syriza will act so that the most vulnerable in society are protected. Tsipras openly accepts his mistakes and says he has learnt from his mistake of underestimating the resolve of the EU about its plans for the Greek economy. Syriza has also taken a sympathetic view of refugees and migrants coming to Greece. The Popular Unity Party and finance minister Varoufakis, a breakaway group from Syriza that advocates going back to the drachma, are not expected to do well in the election. New Democracy Party led by Meimarakis stresses in its campaign that Syriza is turning the recovery into an experiment and lacks the experience to implement the Third Bailout Program neogtiated withe the EU. Syriza and New Democracy are the leading parties in the election. It shows how much has changed in 2015, that the only two parties with some credibility are Syriza under Tsipras and New Democracy under Meimarakis, both having made errors but having the candour and courage to tell Greek voters that they have learned from their mistakes.

Alexis Tsipras of the Syriza Party in the Greece parliamentary election of September 2015
09/18/2015
As Greece goes to the polls his popularity is not what it had been in January when Syriza Party won 36% of the vote. It is not even the popularity he had in July after accepting the terms of the third EU bailout. Polls show him running even with the leader of the New Democracy Party, Mr. Merimarakis. Merimarakis came out strongly in the presidential debate, even swearing at times, and saying Greece was paying too high a price in the education of Tsipras. Tsipras says he underestimated the creditor's resolve and has learned from his mistakes. The difference in this election from the election in January 2015 is that the political leaders see that there are no simple solutions and Greece will have to work its way out of the debt crisis in several stages. Tsipras says he has made a difference for the unemployed by providing emergency benefits.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
