Greek MP Spilios Kriketos has been expelled from his party. One derogatory comment about immigrants was enough for Kyriakos Mitsotakis's party to take extreme measures.
Starting from the tragedy of the ship with migrants that sank near the Greek coast, although he condemned the tragic loss of life, including that of children, Kriketos said during an interview for the YouTube channel Kontra that Greece "cannot tolerate more arrivals ", while accusing the immigrants of theft.
Immediately after this interview, he was expelled from the ranks of New Democracy.
" Opinions like those expressed by Spilios Kriketos have no place in our party. Hateful and racist statements are not part of the values of our political force ," it said in its statement. The Greek coast guard is continuing to search for survivors from the sinking of the ship that claimed 78 lives, but hopes of finding anyone alive are fading "by the minute".
