New Democracy is the party that supports unity among Greeks, its leader Evangelos Meimarakis said in a speech at a closed stadium in the town of Patras, where he is visiting as part of his pre-election campaign.
“New Democracy is a political power that serves the unity of Greeks, because some others want to divide us with their rhetoric and speech,” Greece’s main opposition leader said. “New Democracy is a European, patriotic, social and progressive force,” he added.
Meimarakis accused SYRIZA leader Alexis Tsipras of spreading lies and noted: “Never before has a Prime Minister done so badly in such a short time; never before has a politician told so many lies as Alexis Tsipras.” Responding to a comment from SYRIZA on “leftist melancholy,” he said that it was SYRIZA that made Greeks melancholic. “New Democracy will bring back the smile to the people.”
