Meeting with the head of the Euro-group of Socialists and Democrats, Irace, Garcia Perez, had Nikos Androulakis in Brussels.

In statements shortly thereafter noted:

With the president of the Socialists and Democrats, Irace Garcia Perez, we are associated with common struggles from the European Parliament and common values ​​for a Europe of Solidarity, Social Justice and Single Foreign Policy at a time with very important challenges in our wider geopolitical region.

I would like to thank her for supporting PASOK’s proposal to enter the European Parliament’s plenary for discussion with the issue of Sinai’s Holy Monastery of St. Catherine. Something that did not support the European People’s Party involved in the New Democracy.

And not only did they not support our request, but a few days later they voted to receive Egypt to receive a $ 4 billion aid without any prerequisites, which would ensure the viability of a historical monastery for our Orthodoxy.

Mr. Androulakis was accompanied by the Vice President of the Group of European Socialists and Democrats and PASOK MEP Yiannis Maniatis.
