Discussion on Prespes Agreement Begins in Parliament Committee; Vote Thursday
The debate on the Prespes Agreement will run for two days in Parliament's Standing Committee for National Defence and Foreign Affairs and another two days in the parliament plenary, according to a decision by the Parliament presidents on Monday. The Prespes Agreement will be discussed in the committee on Monday and Tuesday and discussion in the plenary will begin on Wednesday. The sessions will start at 10:00 and run until 02:00 the following morning. Meanwhile, Democratic Alliance leader Fofi Gennimata has not yet sent a letter to the parliament president to inform him that she has expelled Thanassis Theocharopoulos from the party's parliamentary group, something that would trigger a series of changes to the composition of the National Defence and Foreign Affairs parliamentary committee. For the time being, the committee includes two independent deputies, Dimitris Kammenos and Spyros Danellis. Theocharopoulos is also a member of the same committee, representing the Democratic Alliance.
