Alexis Tsipras
"SYRIZA won a historic victory in Greece today. Coalitions are part of our program and we wish to build consensus on the basis of the rejection of austerity" - said the Greek candidate for the European Left, Alexis Tsipras. "Europe today made a decisive step, an important step to stop the disastrous policy of austerity and return to democracy".
"The Greens are a possible partner, but we can join forces with the Social Democrats, if they break the austerity alliance with Conservatives" - he added.
