Buonano, who belongs to the Europe of Nations and Freedom grouping in the EP, called on Juncker to resign and accused him of promoting German hegemony in Europe.

“This flag is a German one, and this one is that of the EU. I do not want to die a German”, the MEP said. “It is either Germany or Europe … Germany cannot be the boss of all of Europe”.

Addressing the former Luxembourg PM directly, Buonanno compared the EC President’s job with a piece of …toilet paper he was holding! “You must resign and apologize to Greece”, he said.
