Main opposition New Democracy (ND) on Thursday criticized the Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras for maintaining a hypocritical stance towards the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), saying it was the ND-led government which first cooperated with the organization.
“We have to congratulate Mr. Tsipras for continuing the cooperation with the OECD!” ND spokesman Costas Karangounis said.
The spokesman reminded Tsipras that when he was leader of the opposition, he had described the country’s cooperation with the OECD as “a recipe for social destruction” and a “black book of neoliberalism.”
Tsipras, Karangounis continued, had voted against all reforms proposed by the OECD by the previous government, saying it would be “the rope to hang ourselves.”
“Clearly, today he [Tsipras] is cooperating with the executioners,” he added.
