Nikos Nifoudis: \u201cWe don\u2019t want members of Parliament\u201d <\/h2>\n

Nikos Nifoudis stated emphatically: \u201cWe do not want members of Parliament, because we do not want the Greek Left Coalition to have a voice in this Parliament, especially when our president, Alexis Tsipras, has relinquished his seat.\u201d <\/p>\n

Responding to a question about the possible recruitment of officials from SYRIZA<\/strong> or other political groups, he emphasized that no exceptions are planned. \u201cThere is no different rule for members of parliament, party leaders, or ordinary citizens,\u201d he noted. <\/p>\n
