“It is even more infuriating that he tries to present the black and white for the inexplicable behavior of the deputy of Makarios Lazaridis”
“Before Mr. Marinakis makes recommendations to the official opposition, let’s look at his house. It is extremely sad and extremely dangerous that the government not only does not condemn, but embraces and makes a flag of female genital mutilation”, says in a statement the PASOK-Movement for Change.
He adds, according to APE MPE, that it is “even more infuriating that he tries to present the black and white for the inexplicable behavior of the deputy of Makarios Lazaridis with cutting and sewing in the minutes of the examination”.
Addressing Mr. Marinakis with the wish “good reading”, PASOK cites the minutes from the speech in the Plenary session of the “also an eyewitness” Member of Parliament of Pleysis Eleftheria, A. Kazamias, commenting that perhaps the government representative did not pay due attention to it yesterday:
“Regarding the episode with Mr. Lazaridis, because I was an eyewitness and participated in it, I want to point out that there was violent body language. Mr. Lazaridis, while the meeting was adjourned, got up from his seat, walked three meters, went menacingly with his body in front of the witness and held the canopy in which he was standing and waved his hands left and right and if I did not intervene and if the President of the Committee, Mr. Nikolakopoulos, did not go, whom I called and asked him to go and protect the witness, your Member of Parliament, and he left the door and ran and caught Mr. Lazaridis and protected the witness – your Member of Parliament, Mr. Kairides – I don’t know what Mr. Lazaridis would have done to the witness. However, she came very close to hitting him. I saw it all. You take a piece of the Proceedings that interests you and read it. This happened and ask and tell us why Mr. Nikolakopoulos went and pulled Mr. Lazaridis by the hands. He pulled him by the hands. Did you understand? That’s what happened.”
