“The Democratic Patriotic People’s Movement NIKI has often expressed its opposition to ‘artworks’ that blasphemes the sacred and sacred of our faith and homeland, as well as the symbols of any religion. For the Greek people, the Virgin Mary is painted in his heart and the damn on her face is a maximum of insult.

In this context, we declare our opposition to the exhibition of blasphemous images at the National Gallery that provoke the religious feeling of our people. For days the vandalia is vandalized the face of the Virgin Mary and the official state tacitly accepts blasphemy. In addition, we recall that the National Gallery is a public institution and operates with money from Greek taxpayers.

MP Papadopoulos acted voluntarily. The principle of our movement is that we must always express ourselves in institutional and parliamentary and by any legal means and not by self -righteousness. “
