[01] ND deputy Andreas Psycharis resigns
ANA/MPA---New Democracy MP Andreas Psycharis on Friday submitted his
resignation as deputy to the president of the Parliament. "After months
of reflection, I realized it was not worth serving any more a political
system that fails to have an understanding even on self-evident things,"
he said in a statement.
"When I first entered the Parliament in May 2012, I believed I was part
of a group of officials that can discuss the country's problem with
respect for each other and who work jointly for the stabilization and
the development of the country. After two and a half years, I simply
realize I am a romantic," he said.
Psycharis also thanked Prime Minister and New Democracy leader Antonis
Samaras for the opportunity he gave him to run in the 2012 elections.
"I leave the political stage but I still am an active citizen who will
claim and will fight to improve the Greeks' living standards and the
image of the political system that recently has been getting increasingly
tarnished," he concluded.
Psycharis will be replaced by Alexandros Moraitakis.
