2004

He was a member of the Popular Orthodox Rally (LAOS), the right-wing populist party of Georgios Karatzaferis where he was a candidate in the 2004 Greek parliamentary elections, taking 5,700 votes.

But he failed to be elected, because LAOS received only 2.19% of votes.

2012

On May 20, 2012, Velopoulos made the decision to leave the LAOS political party along with other politicians and joined the New Democracy party.

He proclaimed to support "the large centre-right faction with a European orientation" although he declined to run as a candidate in the 2012 legislative elections.

In 2012 it was revealed that he had sent the amount of €400,000 abroad, amid fears of Greece defaulting.

2013

He earned a bachelor's degree on Greek civilization studies from the Open University of Cyprus in 2013 and a master's degree in journalism from the same university in 2016.

During his compulsory military service in the Hellenic Army, he served as an officer on the islands of North-Eastern Aegean Sea, and the Greek mainland.

He is a member of the Academy of the Greek language in Germany and a member of the Union of Writers of Northern Greece.

2014

In 2014, Velopoulos advertised a book by the author Ioannis Papazisis entitled "Manuscripts reveal the unknown moments of Christ" through his telemarketing broadcast.

The book contains copies of manuscripts found in the monasteries of Mount Athos, including medieval manuscripts of the Jesus Abgar epistles.

2015

After a number of years with New Democracy, Velopoulos made the decision in 2015 to depart from the party with the aim of creating a new political party.

2016

He is a member of the Hellenic Parliament and has been president of the Greek Solution political party since its foundation in 2016.

Velopoulos is a former parliamentarian for the Popular Orthodox Rally (LAOS) and former member of New Democracy.

He is also a journalist, author and television personality.

He was born in West Germany and grew up in Thessaloniki, Greece.

In 2016 he founded the Greek Solution party.

From 2016 onward he has served as president of the political party Greek Solution "Ελληνική Λύση", which won 10 national parliamentary seats in the 2019 Greek legislative election.

2019

Following the 2019 elections Velopoulos holds the parliamentary seat in the prefecture of Larissa.

In the 2019 Εuropean elections, his party gained one seat for the Εuropean parliament.

Velopoulos has raised objections about the indictment of Golden Dawn's members and he has characterised the arrests of them as a well-played plot οrchestrated "by the domestic government and judicial system".

As a journalist he has worked in a number of radio and television stations, such as "TV Thessaloniki", "Ερμής", "Best", "Top", "Opion", "TeleAsty", where he presented his two major shows "Η Βουλή" and "Ελληνόραμα", in which he promotes his books.

Today he is presenter and owner of "Alert TV" channel.

He is the author of Greece Bleeds, which he claims deals with the corruption of Greek society, army, legal system and politics, and Alexander, the Greatest of the Greeks, a detailed biography of Alexander the Great which includes arguments on the subject's Greek origins.

Several years later during the run-up to the 2019 Greek legislative election, where Velopoulos was running for office, some Greek media outlets reintroduced excerpts of the 2014 book sale alleging that Velopoulos advertised "epistles of Jesus Christ".

This elicited widespread criticism from the Greek academic community and mainstream media, which disputed the historicity of these particular artifacts and accused Velopoulos of misleading consumers.

Velopoulos initially denied having engaged in the sale of the letters, later acknowledging the fact and stating that he would continue to sell them, claiming that his critics lacked the knowledge necessary to dispute the letter's authenticity.

He supported that the epistles are authentic and kept in monasteries of Mount Athos.
