<DIV><SPAN>Dear Stephen, dear all<BR></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN>After entering in this email (After a very long time, as i am not using this email anymore) i realised that i have access to the list. <BR></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><BR><SPAN></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN>I would like to ask the administrator of the list, to send me an email please to giorgos.karatsioubanis@european-left.org as i would like to check with him/her several issues.</SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><BR><SPAN></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN>On the other point Stephen,</SPAN><SPAN> and as you mentioned that, i have to reply to your sentence : Synaspismos has nothing against individual members.</SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN>on my personal opinion : one thing is my personal opinion, and another thing my tasks as member of the EL Office. In this direction, there is no distinction of people supporting, and others that are against individual members the EL Office.<BR></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><BR><SPAN></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN>In any case, the purpose of this email is not to open a new round of exchanges (i think you know where to find me, and i am ready to help in forwarding the different requests). <BR></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN>From email exchanges with Maite Mola and Waltraud i think you are aware that there will be a meeting where your point will be raised.</SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><BR><SPAN></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN>I return to my initial reason of sending this email : i would like to ask the administrator to get in touch with me.</SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><BR><SPAN></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN>Many thanks and greetings from Brussels,</SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN>Giorgos Karatsioubanis<BR></SPAN></DIV>
