Coalition Government Spokeswoman Sofia Voultepsi was highly critical of opposition Coalition of the Left SYRIZA leader Alexis Tsipras speech in Thessaloniki. She noted that he offered free electricity, food coupons, houses, salaries, pensions, benefits, Christmas bonuses, bus tickets, cancelled loans and invented thousands of job positions before re-establishing democracy in Greece. She sarcastically said that “billions of euros have fallen from Thessaloniki’s sky.”  She added that his program promises “9 billion euros in the first year of his governance when it is certain that with his elusive program we’ll be out of the eurozone.”

She said that SYRIZA seems to believe that it has a “magician” for a leader and warned that the “magician” will turn euros to drachmas.
