Constitutional scholar explains why Ilias Kasidiaris cannot run for office
Professor George Sotirelis outlines the legal reasons that bar Ilias Kasidiaris from candidacy, warning of his potential shift to extremist fringe politics.
In a detailed piece, constitutional law professor George Sotirelis argues that Ilias Kasidiaris is legally ineligible to stand for election. He cites serious offenses that disqualify Kasidiaris and predicts that, excluded from parliament, he may become a marginal yet toxic neo-Nazi figure appealing to non-parliamentary far-right groups. Sotirelis stresses that this outcome is both obvious and inevitable under current law.
