New Name and Logo for SYRIZA

syriza_logoNew year, new name and new logo for Greece’s major opposition party, SYRIZA.  The new official name of the party from the first day of the New Year will be changed to “SYRIZA- Coalition of Radical Left” from “SYRIZA-United Social Front,” as it was decided on the party’s founding congress.
There is no official explanation why the party decided to change its name. This probably has to do with its transformation from a coalition to single party last July and the difference on the party’s name signs the dissolution of the political groups at the interior of SYRIZA.
SYRIZA’s chief, Alexis Tsipras, sent a letter on Monday to the president of Greek Parliament, Evangelos Meimarakis, to inform him about the change of the party’s name. He added that the emblem of his party is a five-point yellow star behind three waving flags colored red, green and purple which rest on the word SYRIZA.
The new logo and new emblem of SYRIZA have already been placed on the party offices on Koumoundourou Street.
