She was also a Member of Parliament with New Democracy and the Independent Greeks from 2000 to 2019, during which she was Deputy Speaker of the Hellenic Parliament from 2012 to 2015.
In 2000, she was elected to the Hellenic Parliament for Serres (constituency).
In 2004, 2007, and 2009, she was reelected.
During this time, she was President of the Special Standing Committee on Equality, Youth and Human Rights and of the Standing Committee on Educational Affairs.
She was a member of the Standing Committees of Foreign Affairs and Defence, and also of Public Administration and Justice.
In February 2012, after a vote against the second memorandum, she was expelled from her party's parliamentary caucus.
The following month she joined the new party Independent Greeks and took up the function of Parliamentary Representative of Parliamentary Group of the party along with Christos Zois.
In the May 2012 elections, she was reelected on the ballot of Independent Greeks in the Serres constituency.
On 18 May 2012, she was elected sixth deputy speaker of the Parliament, with 185 votes in favour and 96 abstaining.
In the June 2012 elections, the Independent Greeks placed her first on the list of their candidates (in accordance with the preferences expressed in the May election).

After having to leave her post during the August-September 2015 Caretaker Cabinet of Vassiliki Thanou-Christophilou, she was nominated again to the same position in the Second Cabinet of Alexis Tsipras.
Her nomination was a concession by Tsipras to junior coalition partner the Independent Greeks, who hold a firm position in the Macedonia naming dispute and have been consistently opposed to the use of the word Macedonia in the name of the former Yugoslav country.
In a cabinet reshuffle on 29 August 2018, she became Deputy Minister for National Defence.
Ultimately, she resigned from government on 15 January 2019, together with party leader Panos Kammenos, when the Independent Greeks left the government coalition in disagreement with the upcoming ratification of the Prespa Agreement, by which both countries agreed to the country's renaming to North Macedonia.
