[01] DIMAR leader says he has discussed possibility of cooperation with
SYRIZA in general elections
ANA/MPA---Democratic Left (DIMAR) leader Fotis Kouvelis opened the
door for cooperation with main opposition SYRIZA during his speech
to DIMAR's Executive Committee and the party's parliamentary group
concluded after midnight.
According to sources, Kouvelis said that he had a phone contact with
Alexis Tsipras without saying when, adding that they have discussed the
possibility of cooperation between their parties at the general elections.
The same sources said that Kouvelis did not get into details, but several
members and some deputies expressed their opposition on the grounds that
DIMAR will risk being absorbed by SYRIZA.
Regarding the deputies stance at the second round of the election for a
President of Republic, it will be the same and they will vote 'present'
as they consider that Prime Minister Antonis Samaras' proposal has not
changed the conditions.
MP Thomas Psiras who has signed, together with Nikos Tsoukalis and
Niki Founta a letter supporting the consensus solution, was absent from
the meeting.
