Thanos Plevris: Although Kasselakis will not perform guard duty or patrols throughout his term of service, he was still considered capable of participating in parades

"Some may think "yes we brought him for 20 days to make him hold the flag"," the ND parliamentarian commented on the president of SYRIZA

Newsroom March 26 06:28

New criticism for the presence of Stefanos Kasselakis in the military procession that participated in the parade for the 25th of March in Thebes was made by parliamentarian of the ND, Thanos Plevris, after the spikes he left for the leadership of the army.

“Mr. Kasselakis, who in his entire service will not do a guard, will not do a patrol, will not do a drill, was deemed fit to represent with a troop in the parade,” Plevris told Action24.

“The best people represent with a cavalcade, those who have participated in an act.

I find it challenging.

Call me stuck, some people may think ‘yes we brought him for 20 days to make him carry the flag as well’,” the former minister added.

He noted that “service wise in general we have to look at it but it is not just about Mr. Kasselakis, how people who have not been sworn in and do not have a gun, parade with a gun. Mr. Kasselakis at the moment can only do cabin attendant services, galley and toilet services.”
