“Europe’s spoiled and racist children should know their place.' Turkish FM Cavusoglu's reaction after Greek lawmaker tears up Turkish flag
Lawmaker of far-right Golden Dawn party Ioannis Lagos yells as he enters a parliament session in Athens, June 4, 2014.
"We have streams of migrants coming to my country. Here we have the Turkish flag," he said, depicting a paper red flag featuring a white star and crescent. Nobody should doubt that our flag will continue to wave proudly forever! Expecting European Parliament to take necessary measures against this clown."Europe's spoiled and racist children should know their place. Europe must put an end to racism and animosity against Islam," he said.
He is among over a dozen senior Golden Dawn figures on trial for the 2013 murder of anti-fascist rapper Pavlos Fyssas by alleged party members. "But nothing justifies the regrettable action of tearing the flag in the @Europarl_EN plenary. The usual extreme right Islamophobic narrative is not welcome in Brussels."
