SYRIZA leadership welcomed with great relief Panos Kammenos decision to back down on Mouzalas’ issue and not asking Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras to remove Alternate Minister for Migration Yannis Mouzalas.

Associates of the prime minister were pleased by the fact that Independent Greeks leader backed down and said that essentially there is no issue: Mouzala’s case will not be considered separately from any other changes the government might make in case of a cabinet reshuffle and when prime minister decides it to do.
