United we stand divided Tsipras falls?

ATHENS, July 29 –  The internal battles waged within a party are usually related to   party officials, members and their entourage. Most people are indifferent to it.
Yet it is not always so. Sometimes feuding party is in government an internal party battle can be critical for change.
  Karelia George
This is the point we are at today. The battered SYRIZA government.  What happens can have positive – even fatal – consequences. In any case it can be  a catalyst – for in the country’s direction. 

Here’s the current situation:

  1. The government has reached an agreement in principle with Europeans. They passed the first prerequisites and stay some more, to conclude the final agreement. This will be done (or not) to the end of August,  under normal conditions.
  2. Hitherto polls showed that SYRIZA-ANEL government has no majority in parliament, and about 30 members of the largest party came to “insurgency” against the agreement. The prerequisites passed thanks to votes of the opposition parties ND and PASOK River.
  3. In addition to the substantial loss of Stated (typically there because the opposition does not file a motion of censure and the intraparty opposition Syriza wants to take the cost to overthrow the government), Alexis Tsipras is hovering in his own party . Has lost (and) the party Stated, as more than half the members of the Central Committee of SYRIZA have come out against the agreement.
  4. Any developments will be decided in the Central Committee meeting Thursday. The prime minister and his supporters seek to become either  an extraordinary congress either internal referendum,  as they consider that the broader the base of the party have a majority. In the extraordinary congress will engage young delegates who will represent the ‘social’ SYRIZA, as estimated by the leadership team. Instead, the intraparty opposition (Left Platform Lafazani and other old components) seek to become a permanent conference , which believe that they have the majority, since it reflects the  old associations .
  5. If Thursday, the Central Committee, Mr. Tsipras achieve its objective, the government will proceed, as planned, the completion of the preparation for the signing of the new Memorandum. And just to finalize the  division of SYRIZA would postpone for a while, depending on the options that will make the so-called side Lafazani.
  6. If instead Thursday Mr. Tsipras lost intraparty vote, they will be found and party hovering in front of dramatic  dilemmas.  Necessarily developments will accelerate. At government level will have two options. Either it continues as today and will try to pass the prerequisites of August and again with the support of opposition parties, with the danger have other losses Members, under the weight of the foregoing internal party defeat. Or will resort to the solution of the government “special purpose”, with the participation or support of opposition parties, however, a solution that until now has shown that it wants.

Mr. Tsipras has the solution of “surprise” elections, seeking to do the final cleanup there. But in these elections SYRIZAS will be weakened and driven by the question: What party?

It remains unanswered at the moment, since his opponents inside SYRIZA would have typically won in the intraparty conflict.

However, since the parties is in power compromises last minute is normal, just do not risk a loss of power, it should not be ruled out tomorrow to achieve a temporary compromise which would only prolong the suspense.

In any case, SYRIZA’s internal party process  is considered crucial, as confidence in relations with Europe has not been restored,. And the conditions in the economy remain extremely difficult and uncertainty prevails.
