Biography

Avlonitis was born in the village of Dafni on the island of Corfu. He graduated from Democritus University of Thrace with a BA in Law and has practised law since 1983.[1] From 2007 to 2010, he was the final mayor of the municipality of Esperies before it was merged into the municipality of Corfu.[2]

He was first elected as an MP in the 2019 elections with Syriza and was re-elected in May and June 2023.[3]
In November 2024, in the midst of the crisis that erupted during the internal elections for the party's presidency, he resigned and became an independent.[4] [5] After a few days he joined the new party of Stefanos Kasselakis, Movement for Democracy as one of the founding members.[6] On 29 January 2026, he announced his departure from the Democracy Movement and returned to being an independent.

He is married to notary Anastasia Konstantara, with whom he has a daughter.
