Today's meeting of the Political Secretariat of PASOK is considered to be of critical importance during a pivotal time for the party, which is struggling to overcome internal divisions and is looking for a polling boost to emerge from its state of introspection. Central to the discussion is the method by which party delegates will be elected, as the proposed 'model' is seen to favor party leader Nikos Androulakis over other prominent party figures, known as 'dolphins'.

Objections have been raised concerning the electoral model based on the European elections algorithm, which critics argue may lead to underrepresentation for Athens at the upcoming Congress while disproportionately inflating the representation from Crete. Party members Haris Doukas and Pavlos Geroulanos have called for an open Congress that clarifies, among other issues, that there is no prospect for post-election collaboration with the ruling New Democracy party. Doukas is reportedly determined to put this issue to a vote, which could intensify the ongoing internal conflicts.

On the other hand, Anna Diamantopoulou, while maintaining a noticeable distance from certain factions, is expected to play a significant role in navigating these challenges. The outcome of this meeting could set the tone for the future direction of PASOK and its ability to unify amidst growing tensions, as well as its strategy looking ahead to future elections, making the stakes particularly high for all involved parties.
