Stop Heckling, Says Juncker, I'm Texting Greek PM

European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker was heckled at the European Parliament on Tuesday, July 7, for using his phone during a debate. However, he responded quickly to the hecklers, saying that he was, in fact, texting Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras. A clearly annoyed Juncker continued (in French): “I am doing my work, so stop this stupid banter, for which there is no reason.” Credit: European Parliament
