Kammenos tweet announces Kountoura's expulsion from ANEL parliamentary group
Independent Greeks (ANEL) party leader Panos Kammenos announced that Tourism Minister Elena Kountoura has been expelled from ANEL's parliamentary group, in a tweet posted on Monday.
Accusing Kountoura, who had earlier declared her continued support for the government, of "trading her vote and the name 'Macedonia' for a ministerial chair," Kammenos said he was ejecting her from ANEL's parliamentary group, effective immediately.
Independent Greeks (ANEL) party president Panos Kammenos fired a second member of his parliamentary group, Deputy Agricultural Development and Food Minister Vassilis Kokkalis, via Twitter on Monday, shortly after announcing the expulsion of Tourism Minister Elena Kountoura.
Kokkalis had earlier officially announced his decision to support the government with a vote of confidence, despite ANEL's departure from the coalition, but not the Prespes Agreement.
"Vassilis Kokkalis, despite being in a negotiating stage for his vote on the national issue from China, the intention to trade the seat is enough in order to remove him from the Independent Greeks parliamentary group," Kammenos tweeted.
