Former Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras held his first online discussion with members of the Greek Left Alliance (ELAS) on July 16, 2026. The event marked the initiation of a new political communication strategy, aimed at creating a more interactive and continuous dialogue between the party leadership and its base. Tsipras emphasized the importance of establishing a "governing left" distinct from what he termed the "politics of protest," addressing criticisms from the broader left-wing movement regarding the party's direction.
During the online event, titled #AskTsipras, participants were invited to submit questions and engage directly with Tsipras, reflecting a shift towards greater transparency and accessibility within the party. According to Tsipras, the platform, myelas.gr, is intended to facilitate ongoing discussions rather than being limited to pre-election periods or major party events. The interaction is part of a broader vision for ELAS to embody a "new age" political approach, fostering sustained connections within its community.
