Velopoulos: “I was angry that he mixed up his mother”

The president of Hellenic Solution, Kyriakos Velopoulos, spoke about the beating of Vassilis Grammenos by the independent MP, Konstantinos Floros.

As Mr. Velopoulos told ANT1, “the most sacred thing for me is the other person’s mother. The worst part isn’t the punch, he pissed me off that he messed with his mom. When you don’t take responsibility for your actions, you don’t deserve to be an MP.”

“Mr. Grammenos is a man with three childrenfamily man, everyone knows he’s soft-spoken, he is knowledgeable in martial arts, he is a boxer, he may have fallen, but he got up easily, he showed self-restraint. We must support this man. What does the hospital say? Broken nose, broken shoulder… The nose is not from the fall”said the president of the Hellenic Solution.

He added that the arrested MP, “he went to sack an entire party using his mother” and added that “Mr. Floros’s father was in our party, we deleted him years ago. I had no relationship with the son.”

Referring to what happened in the Parliament, he said that “after the incident with Mr. Grammenos, while I was speaking from the pulpit, he was hidden in the peristyle and made obscene and obscene gestures to me. I informed the Speaker of the Parliament and he was kicked out by the Parliament Guard. This is jungle behavior».

THE Kyriakos Velopoulos he even said that “if I had one in a trillion in my mind that he cursed his mother, I would have deleted Mr. Grammenos. Since noon, journalists have committed a crime: they made the “rapist” say whatever he wanted and the “rapist” couldn’t speak, while ND also went to set up a scene that did not work out for her. All those who spoke said something in the morning and rounded it off in the afternoon. The policeman who was in front said that he did not hear Grammenos cursing.”

“Vulgar, barbaric, beastly behavior it was characterized by Mr. Tasoulas. The President of the Parliament said it all. There is no logic. Even if I curse you, you will not hit methis behavior is the subject of a scientific body”, concluded Mr. Velopoulos.

Mr. Velopoulos also referred to a post by Pavlos Marinakis from 2012, in which it was written “Tsipras, if we lived in the civil war you would go away from me”, saying that the government spokesman cannot speak today about the violence.

For his “admonition” to ND MPs not to go to church

Mr. Velopoulos was asked if he is competing with Mr. Natsios’s NIKI for who will enter the “door” of the churches and “control” who enters them, on the occasion of the slap in the temple received by ND MP Angeliki Delikari and his “warning” on Wednesday to MPs who voted for the law on same-sex couples not to go to church during Holy Week and Easter.

Referring to NIKI he said “we’re not a sect or anything, don’t compare me to parties I don’t want”while for his phrase that is already causing reactions, he said: “Supplication, exhortation, appeal I told the MPs who voted for the law on same-sex couples, that it would be good not to go to church, since Easter is holy for believers. I insist on the admonition not to divide the Greeks again. As soon as you go against the dogma, you have no reason to go to the Church. If I were against Islam, I would not go to the mosque in Ramadan. Whoever voted for this law is against the essence of the doctrine, I don’t know if he is an infidel, I know what he voted for.”

He went on to argue that “I as a politician try to protect the country’s political staff from similar behavior. I will not back down, I believe it I tell you. You can go to any church, worship any icon, but because it will be very crowded on Easter and there will be some extremes, lest we cause incidents that will expose the Church and politics. You don’t go to a church on Easter for vote-seeking reasonslike some atheist former prime ministers who went with their torch to “turn the button”.
