THE NATION: Yanis Varoufakis’s vision for a more democratic Europe – a review of ‘Adults in the Room’, ‘Talking to My Daughter About The Economy’ & ‘And the Weak Suffer What They Must?’ by Atossa Araxia Abrahamian
, 15/05/2018
The idea of a unified Europe didn’t always elicit the current mixture of exasperation, boredom, and rage, in politicians and ordinary people alike. In fact, there was a time when the European Union seemed like a great initiative, especially on a continent ravaged first by two hot wars, then broken in half by a cold […]
ΠΡΩΤΟΜΑΓΙΑ: Όσο υπάρχει καπιταλισμός, κάθε γενιά εργαζόμενων είναι καταδικασμένη να δίνει ξανά και ξανά τους ίδιους αγώνες
, 01/05/2018
Σήμερα, Πρωτομαγιά, απλά πασχίζουμε να μην ξεχνάμε τους προηγούμενους ώστε να κερδηθούν οι επόμενοι: Τον Μάη 1886 στο Σικάγο Την μεγάλη απεργία του 1896 στο Λαύριο Tην Φεντερασιόν του Αβραάμ Μπεναρόγια και τους νεκρούς της Πρωτομαγιάς του 1911 στην Θεσσαλονίκη Τον Κρητικό συνδικαλιστή Λούη Τίκα, που έπεσε στο Κολοράντο το 1914 στην σφαγή απεργών στα […]

At home with the Financial Times – by Bruce Clark, 11 APR 2018
, 15/04/2018
Yanis Varoufakis is full of teasing paradoxes. As a radical economics guru, he expounds on the state of the world with a mixture of burning grievance and brimming, almost imperious, self-confidence. Aged 57, his personal baggage includes a keen sense of the wrongs of recent Greek history, which overshadowed his parents’ lives, and the glories […]
Free Julian now! A MeRA25 video message in support of the petition to restore Assange’s access to the outside world
, 14/04/2018
You can disagree with him, mock him, despise him. But you cannot ignore what he contributed to your understanding of crimes committed in your name against humanity. Or that he is persecuted for this and nothing else. End Assange’s isolation now. Sign the petition!
Why we founded new political party MeRA25 to challenge austerity in Greece – The New Statesman, 5 APR 2018
, 07/04/2018
After successfully quashing Greece’s 2015 debtor’s prison break, Europe’s deep establishment has embarked on a mission to declare the country’s economic and social crisis over. To recall Tacitus, “they make a desert and they call it peace”. Since 2015, the Greek state has paid its creditors a sum equal to the aggregate pre-tax revenues of […]
MANIFESTO of MeRA25 – the new party set up by DiEM25 in Greece to revive the spirit of the Greek Spring
, 02/04/2018
The state of permanent debt bondage, which threatens Greece with desertification, is in the mind of every Greek. Imposing emigration on our young, and indignity to those who stay behind, it hangs over the country like a thick, dark cloud. Unable to discern any light in the long night of our Great Depression, the Greeks’ […]
Οι θέσεις μας, οι προτάσεις μας, η απόφασή μας – Κεντρική Ομιλία στην Ιδρυτική Συνδιάσκεψη του ΜέΡΑ25, 26 ΜΑΡ 2018
, 30/03/2018
Στο κατάμεστο Θέατρο Ιλίσια, μετά από μια ολόκληρη μέρα θεματικών συζητήσεων και μηνυμάτων από όλη την Ευρώπη, ανέβηκε στην σκηνή ο Ψαραντώνης για να δώσει με την λύρα του το μέγα μήνυμα: Ο φόβος δεν θα περάσει! Παίρνοντας την σκυτάλη, ξεκίνησα την κεντρική ομιλία της βραδιάς, απαντώντας: Κάποτε που είχες πει Ψαραντώνη ότι, στις δύσκολες […]
“Greece was strangled by the creditors in 2015. We stand with Yanis Varoufakis and with the truth.” Professors Jeff Sachs (Columbia) and James K. Galbraith (Texas)
, 18/03/2018
Thomas Wieser’s claim that Yanis Varoufakis and the Greek government of 2015 cost their economy 200 billion euros is ludicrous. As Wieser knows – because he was one of the architects of the policy – the Greek economy in 2015 was strangled by its creditors. The creditors inflicted severe damage from the first day: by […]
And the name of DiEM25’s Greek political party is…
, 14/02/2018
We have white smoke! DiEM25’s members overwhelmingly approved the name of our new Greek electoral wing – the political party with which DiEM25 will contest elections in Greece, returning the spirit of the Greek Spring to the place of its birth. As with all major DiEM25 decisions, members voted from across Europe, confirming once again […]
