Government Vice President, Foreign Minister and PASOK party leader Evangelos Venizelos, speaking in an interview with Mega television channel and replying to a question on what it will mean if PASOK falls below 10 percent in the European elections, said that what is important is what it will mean for the country, clarifying that in this case there shall be a problem of government stability and government orientation.
“If in 2007 PASOK had a different leadership, the country’s history would have been different,” said the leader of PASOK accusing the former Prime Minister George Papandreou for mishandling the situation leading Greece to memorandum period.
Venizelos replying to a question regarding opinion polls published on Sunday and showing once again that the Greeks do not want early elections said that the citizen must think how he shall secure what he wants in the European elections, government stability.
He further said that the government does not exist in absentia of the people and was elected in 2012 when all the issues were known to all, unlike 2009.
Lastly, he pointed out that if the people want to be in danger, the government will be in danger, while stressing that at some time burdens must be distributed fairly between the political forces.
