Fofi Gennimata Appointed New PASOK Spokesperson

The new President of PASOK, Eleftherios Venizelos, appointed today Fofi Gennimata as the new spokesperson of the party. Mrs. Gennimata is the first choice of Venizelos to staff the party after his election last Sunday.
The choice of Mrs. Gennimata came as a surprise to both the party members and outsiders, since this is a new political development affecting the current electoral balances. Given her current new position as the spokesperson of PASOK and in order for her to be able to appear on TV during the pre-election campaign, Mrs. Gennimata is expected to head the PASOK Ministry of State of Greece ballot.
Thus, competition in the first Athens electoral prefecture (in which Gennimata was until now a candidate) will be limited amidst K.Skandalidis, Ch. Papoutsis and Anna Diamantopoulou. With her appointment as media representative, all rumors wanting Gennimata joining the list for the Ministry of State office have ceased.
In an attempt to explain the choice of Venizelos, PASOK members supported that this move aims at clustering all PASOK forces in view of the pending elections. λου ΠΑΣΟΚ».
Gennimata had served as Deputy Health Minister between October 2009 and September 2010, while she was Deputy Education Minsiter from September 2010 to November 2011.
