Stefanos Kasselakis announced his departure from Syriza, stating he would create his own political party after being ousted during the congress meeting. His leadership was contested, leading to tensions within the party.
Kasselakis's journey in Greek politics began in 2023, quickly climbing to prominence in Syriza despite being criticized for not embodying traditional leftist values, particularly after the party’s recent electoral defeats.
The ongoing struggle within Syriza illustrates a deep factionalism where Kasselakis’s confrontational style and focus on social media did not resonate with all members, ultimately resulting in significant fallout.
The undercurrents of dissatisfaction within Syriza culminated in Kasselakis's decision to leave the party, reflecting broader challenges faced in the contemporary political landscape of Greece.
