There is the word of god. The Church says “I do not discriminate”, we must understand that there is a difference in dealing with issues, the politician sees them differently and the believer sees them differently. We love all people. We have solid lines: the word of God. We don’t do what Velopoulos or any politician tells us, we respect people. Cooperation is essential in these times».
“We are looking at how we can move forward. I can’t go into things that the Gospel doesn’t say and he can have his opinions, I can’t identify with personal interests. It is time to think seriously”, he noted and added: “Our country needs partners and cooperation“, he said.
