Alex Tsipras - President of Synaspismos Party
GREECE ELECTION - June 15, 2012, all eyes are on Greece and this weekend's election. On Sunday the election will take place with serious concerns about the radical challenger, 37-year-old Alex Tsipras of the Syriza Party. Tsipras represents the Synaspismós Party, abbreviated name is SYN.
SYN is the largest party of a left-wing political coalition formed in 2004 and named SYRIZA (Coalition of the Radical Left). CLICK
Tsipras challenges the terms of the bailout deal drawn up by Brussels and the International Monetary Fund. It has made him the anti-austerity candidate. He has threatened to tear up the agreement which would mean Greeks none use of the Euro.
He accused the two main Greek parties of looting the country and handing over the national flag to the German chancellor.
His core message is: "Greece has been a European and international experiment, and the Greek people have been the guinea pigs. In the past two years we have suffered a social catastrophe."
