Contrary to his proposal Archbishop Hieronymos Perissos declares for a referendum on the marriage of same-sex couples.

“Obviously we disagree with holding a referendum on such an issue, because with mathematical precision will lead to disorientation, in an artificial debate about “progressiveness” and “conservatism”, it will give grip to every irrational, obscurantist, unscientific approach, will strengthen homophobic views and cannibalism towards people of different sexual orientation” characteristic KKE sources cite.

They also state that “just the fact that this proposal is the first issue today proves that it should have been that the separation of state and church has been progressing for years, as the KKE proposed in the last constitutional review and it was rejected by ND, SYRIZA and PASOK”.

Finally, the sources of the KKE point out that “the Mitsotakis government has a huge responsibility, which has consciously imposed a single-issue agenda, selling “progressiveness”. while its anti-popular policy it is moving forward with intensity in all sectors, naturally targeting all workers, all the people and the youth”.
