The leaders’ council seems to end before even starting

Mr. Tsipras called the leaders of the opposition parties seeking a national dialogue

Newsroom November 27 02:01

The political leaders’ meeting will take place on Saturday, at 12:00 focusing on the refugee issue, the social security reforms and the revision of Constitution.

According to Prime Minister’s office statement, Mr. Tsipras called the leaders of the opposition parties seeking a national dialogue where opinions will be recorded, without asking their consent, although Mr. Tsipras said that the consent is desirable, if it is possible to be achieved.

Interim leader of New Democracy (ND) Ioannis Plakiotakis, PASOK leader Fofi Genimmata and POTAMI leader Stavros Theodorakis  announced that they will participate in the leaders council on the refugee issue, the social security reforms and the revision of Constitution, but they clarified that they are not willing to support, a priori  Prime Minister’s goals.

On the other hand, Communist party (KKE) secretary general Dimitris Koutsoumbas will not participate in the political leaders meeting, while according to sources the leader of the Centrists Union Vassilis Leventis has reportedly replied positively to the call.
