Socrates Famelos has declared his independence from the SYRIZA parliamentary group, a decision he described as "very difficult." He communicated his intention to the President of the Parliament, Nikitas Kaklamanis, through a letter and a subsequent meeting.

In a video message posted on social media, Famelos stated that he cannot support the "entrenchment" within the party, which he believes does not address the citizens' need for a progressive government to replace the current right-wing administration. He also remarked that recent events do not align with the values of the Left.

Famelos noted that his entire life has been connected with organized action on the Left, including his involvement with Synaspismos and SYRIZA from their founding. He expressed regret over the current impasse. Some outlets, including Naftemporiki and in.gr, identify Famelos as a former president of SYRIZA.
