Greek war hero lashes out at EP President

MEP M. Glezos told EP President M. Schulz that he has the right to say what he wants but no right to “strangle” Greece

“As an individual you have the right to intervene and say whatever you want, but, as a president of the European Parliament I believe that you don’t have the right to express the European Parliament and to intervene in Greece and to try to strangle it,” said SYRIZA MEP Manolis Glezos on Tuesday addressing Europarliament President Martin Schulz. “Those who believe that they can subordinate the Greek people are mistaken,” he added.
