Tsipras takes cockpit as the ‘pilot of Greece’ at Parmenion exercise (pics)

The Greek PM A. Tsipras watched the annual armed forces exercise, but couldn’t resist hands-on involvement!

Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras watched the last stage of the Parmenion 2015 military exercise on Friday morning at Alexandroupolis, northern Greece. Accompanied by National Defence Minister Panos Kammenos, head of the Independent Greeks (ANEL), Tsipras surveyed the area. State Minister Nikos Pappas was there as well.

Aptly garbed in a leather jacket, the Greek PM made his way to the C130 cockpit for a trial flight.
