Tsipras booed, called traitor in London

Alexis Tsipras was verbally attacked on Monday afternoon outside the Greek Center in London.

Greeks had gathered on the opposite sidewalk and as he appeared they begun shouting, “Traitor, you sold Macedonia, give Cyprus too”, “Shame on you!”, while another shouted, “You sold Macedonia for 30 pieces of silver” and threw coins on the ground.

Mr. Tsipras had just met with Greek professionals, entrepreneurs and scientists working in the British capital.

The prime minister is in London to have a meeting with the Greek diaspora and the UK Prime Minister Theresa May, as well as a series of other contacts, including with London City economic agents.
