Kammenos wants ? 2 mln from Protagon cartoonist, Potami chief

Greece's Defense Minister Panos Kammenos has sued cartoonist Andreas Petroulakis and centrist Potami Leader Stavros Theodorakis. He is demanding a million euros from each one for defamation on the site, Protagon. The cartoonist states that Theodorakis no longer has a relation with the Protagon news site as he transfered his shares.

The post that Kammenos took offence to was published on March 17, titled "P. Kammenos. They've begun to resemble him." The article focused on Kammenos' nationalist rightist tendencies and focused on various activities that the right-wing anti-austerity Independent Greeks (ANEL) leader has been interested in, such as his belief in chemtrails.

The article states that SYRIZA government's decision to create a coalition government with ANEL as a junior partner is affecting SYRIZA deputies, causing them to start to resemble Kammenos.
