Greece's exit from the euro is not an option for SYRIZA, party leader Alexis Tsipras said in an interview with Kathimerini newspaper appearing on Sunday, accusing his political opponents of danger-mongering, while adding that the first action of a SYRIZA government will be to annul the Memorandum.

Tsipras attributed the big rise in SYRIZA's popularity to the mistakes of his opponents, accusing New Democracy (ND) and PASOK of first adamantly supporting the Memorandum that leads to disaster and then of leading the country to repeat elections although they could have formed a coalition government after the inconclusive May 6 elections.

The SYRIZA leader said that if he forms a government after the June 17 repeat elections, he will repeal the Memorandum with a law.

He also said that an exit from the euro was not a choice of his, and accused his political opponents of danger-mongering.

"As for an exit from the euro, it is being put forward as a 'red line' in a very hypocritical and self-serving way that infers that if we want to stay in the euro we have no other choice than to materialise the Memorandum," he said.
