PASOK internal dispute over political cooperation

Overview

Internal disagreements have emerged within the PASOK party regarding its relationship with the New Democracy party. Athens Mayor Haris Doukas urged the party to adhere to its convention decision to refuse cooperation, criticizing a “social democracy of assimilation” and advocating for a “democratic radical realism” that offers a distinct alternative to the Right.

This position was met with pushback from Panagiotis Loukos, who argued that convention decisions are not “holy scriptures” and must adapt to new political realities.

Following these tensions, PASOK official Anna Diamantopoulou addressed rumors of post-election cooperation with New Democracy, dismissing them as a “very bad joke.” Diamantopoulou emphasized that the party’s strategic goal is to achieve political change through an autonomous path, maintaining independence from both Kyriakos Mitsotakis and Alexis Tsipras.
