A sad day for Greece and day of shame for Tsipras and Kammenos, says New Democracy




Main opposition New Democracy on Sunday said it was a sad day for Greece and a day of shame for Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras and Defence Minister and the leader of Independent Greeks (ANEL) Panos Kammenos, accusing them of ‘granting FYROM citizens’ the option to call themselves Macedonians and to claim that they allegedly speak the Macedonian language”.

In an announcement on Sunday, the main opposition noted that the Greek people were rightly furious, as they realised that SYRIZA and and its junior coalition partner ANEL will stop at nothing to hold on to power, not taking even national interests into account. “No previous government had accepted a Macedonian nation and Macedonian language,” ND said, adding that the 153 deputies that voted against the censure motion are responsible because they have bound Greece to an agreement that creates faits accomplis that will be extremely difficult to reverse.”

The main opposition party’s announcement said that ND will do everything possible to prevent a division among the Greeks and urged the citizens to stay calm and control themselves, while urging the government to do so the same and accusing it of not realising that it stands opposed to the vast majority of Greeks.
