Eleftherios Synadinos
Eleftherios Synadinos (Greek Ελευθέριος Συναδινός; born 6 July 1955 in Argos Orestiko) is a Greek officer veteran, currently serving as a politician and member of the Golden Dawn party. He has been a Member of the European Parliament from Greece since 2014.[1]
Synadinos advanced to the rank of Lietenant General, commanding the Greek Army's special forces against enemies of Greece and Europe. He served in a variety of positions in NATO coordination bodies, and in the Greek forces opposed to the Turkish invasion of Cyprus.[2]
On 9 March 2016, he was expelled from Plenary by the President of the European Parliament, Martin Schulz, for calling Turks “dirty and polluted” during a debate.[3] Referencing article 165 of the European Parliament's rules of procedure, Schulz stated that Synadinos' sentence represented "a breach of the values of the EU”.
