The agreement has priority over party unity, gov't spokeswoman says
"It is a collective procedure, extremely important, to address the issue of how and through which path we will reach, through a broad debate, the right and necessary conclusions in the interest of the Greek people, and the country, on top of the interests of SYRIZA, the Left," government spokeswoman Olga Gerovassili on Thursday said upon her arrival at SYRIZA Central Committee meeting.
Asked whether the agreement or the party unity comes first, she replied: "The agreement is first at this crucial period of time and always in the interest of the country."
Regarding the risk of a split, Gerovassili said "right now there are two different strategies. One is outside Europe and one is in Europe. At a government level these seem unable to concur."
On the possibility of elections, she stated: "Right now elections are not our aim. Our aim is to push forward the country's issues. Elections will always be a way out when needed."
