adding that if the members are the rift the old are the continuation'.
He noted that 'currently we are covering the last meters of a very
difficult marathon; we are at the final stretch to take that country out
of the crisis, to reach a clearing after a very difficult and painful
course. We are very close to the finish of a long period of very
difficult decisions not only for the government but also for a large
part of the society".
Reviewing the government's work, Tsipras said that 'during this course
we fought to keep the society standing and we succeeded a lot, not as
much as we wanted but a lot. Despite the fiscal restrictions and the
hard supervision we managed to create protection conditions for the
weaker strata" said Tsipras.
