  • [01] PASOK leader chairs party meeting

    Main opposition PASOK party leader George Papandreou chaired a meeting of the party's political and coordinating body on Monday, during which current developments, the course towards PASOK's congress and international developments were discussed.

    As regards the party's congress, Papandreou said that it will signal a new beginning for the party's course, while stressing the need for the party's coordinated course, despite what is being said in the mass media.

    An extensive briefing was made during the meeting on the issue of the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia's (FYROM) name and Papandreou reiterated in principle his position that the ruling New Democracy (ND) party and the government "have proved that they lack a strategy and are in the grips of a petty partisan conception."

    Papandreou accused the government of choosing the position of "you leave behind problems if you cannot tackle them," resulting in fait accomplis and crises being produced.

    The PASOK leader assessed that the government is in an extremely difficult position on the issue of FYROM, "due to its handling and its policy", adding that PASOK believes that the United States has decided the accession of FYROM, Croatia and Albania to NATO, despite the evaluations of the government and the foreign minister.
