Speaking in a debate on a no-confidence motion brought against the government by New Democracy over a deal achieved with the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia on its name, Konstantinos Barbarousis accused the government of failing to protect Greece's interests and called on the army to intervene.
"As the country's political leadership is not legislating in the nation's interests but in its own, I call on the country's military leadership to respect its oath and to arrest Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras, Defence Minister, Panos Kammenos and President, Prokopis Pavlopoulos to avert this treason," he said.
Barbarousis was later expelled from his party by leader Nikos Michaloliakos.
