Compromise? Sure, but appeasements? No. In essence I can explain the situation happening in Greece very bluntly.
In essence, Greece has no identity or long term vision. Hence why each party is offering their vision of what Greece should look like.
Golden Dawn brings up the point that Greece has a major illegal immigrant problem (mainly illegals from Afghanistan and Pakistan). When 10% of the population living in Greece are illegals this is why a nationalistic Neo Nazi party gains such favor. Europe doesn't allow Greece to kick out these illegals because it is considered inhumane. But Greek citizens are having to see massive cuts in pay, pensions, etc due to austerity measure which are inhumane. In short, a country like Greece has enough problems, but having to feed, clothe illegals immigrants from war torn countries (thanks United States for the "nation building efforts"
only compounds the situations.
PASOK and ND pretty much have been the good cop/bad copy routine down for a long time, but it is coming to an end. Reality is, people are fed up with both parties allowing the out of control situation in governance.
KKE is in support of feeding and clothing the illegal immigrants, and takes it is a step further that the common workers and people need to be all treated humanely. In essence, they oppose kicking out the illegal immigrants and austerity measures.
Syriza is an interesting case because they are a wildcard but they will not abandon their pro labor routs. This is where Syriza's goals align with the KKE.
LAOS is not mentioned much but they could sneak into the fray if this political mayhem continues.
