ND MP Miltos Chrysomallis said he will vote against the bill for same-sex couples. Today’s debate in Parliament is expected to last until 02:00.
Mr. Chrysomallis, is the second MP, after Thanos Plevris, who went up to the floor of the Plenary to express his disagreement, however differentiated from the one who abstained from voting, “so as not to give anyone the right to take advantage of it. for petty political reasons”, will vote against the bill.
From the floor of the Plenary, Mr. Chrysomallis said: “The great faction of New Democracy has remained stable in its 50 years of history because it managed to integrate different views successfully because we all come from different political approaches – liberal, conservative, centrist , right-wing and we coexist for the many things we agree on, but also for those we disagree on and our president and prime minister himself is the first to recognize it all. ND is a large popular party that expresses the concerns and expectations of all Greeks.
I am also voicing these concerns today with my negative vote on this particular bill. But I place myself according to conscience and not abstaining. I cannot imagine a society where father and mother are replaced by parent 1 and parent 2 and children are deprived of the benefits that father and mother together provide. And that for me is valuable. Because we have the responsibility to preserve what we inherited, to protect society and above all our children”.
