ND's Meimarakis, MEP candidate, gives up his seat in Greek parliament

Meimarakis, who is heading ND's euroballot, submitted his resignation in a letter to parliament president Nikos Voutsis on Thursday saying he refuses to make use of a recent amendment that allows Eurodeputy candidates to retain their seats in the Greek parliament.

The second runner-up Zoe Rapti will replace Meimarakis, who was voted in by the second Athens district, as first runner-up Argyris Dinopoulos said he will not take the seat.
