Capital will support SYRIZA to 'do its dirty work', KKE's Koutsoumbas claims
The forces of capital will undoubtedly seek to ensure a lengthy term in government for SYRIZA "so that it can complete the dirty work on their behalf," Communist Party of Greece (KKE) General Secretary Dimitris Koutsoumbas asserted on Sunday, in an interview published by the Sunday edition of "Real News".
Replying to questions, Koutsoumbas said that the aim was to quickly pass brutal measures left unfinished by the previous New Democracy and PASOK governments, without provoking a popular reaction.
"This is precisely, we say, SYRIZA's greatest contribution to the system," he added, though noting that in addition to intentions, there was also the momentum of developments in themselves and their impact, such as the opposition in the eurozone, the course of the crisis and heightened competition between the capitalist states and economies.
