Angeliki Delikari’s targeting of same-sex couples

That’s it the second incident of targeting a political figure, as on Sunday morning ND MP, Angeliki Delikari, was slapped by a former MP candidate of the far-right “Niki” party, inside a holy temple, also because of her decision to stand in favor of the law on the marriage of same-sex couples. Attack that it was condemned by all the parties of the democratic arc.

“We unequivocally condemn the attack received by New Democracy MP Angeliki Delikari inside a holy temple. Such behaviors are aimed at intimidating the free conscience of parliamentarians and harm democracy itself.” mentions, in his announcement, the SYRIZA.

“The handcuffing against ND MP Angeliki Delikaris in a church in Kavala is a completely reprehensible act. Temples are places of worship of the religion of love, not of hatred & violence. Such actions have nothing to do with the church and its teachings.” Thanasis Glavinas, press representative, emphasizes for his part PASOK-Movement for Change.

In a post on X (formerly Twitter) the Press Office of his KE KKE states: “The KKE condemns the attack received by ND MP, Angeliki Delikari, by a member of the NIKI party in a church. Such actions, which refer to obscurantist practices, cannot be treated as random or isolated events, but as the product of a more comprehensive reactivity of the urban political system, fueling corresponding perceptions and behaviors.”
