Synadinos is a retired army officer. He advanced to the rank of Lieutenant General, commanding the Greek Army's special forces. He served in a variety of positions in NATO coordination bodies, and in the Greek forces opposed to the Turkish invasion of Cyprus.

On 9 March 2016, he was expelled from Plenary by the President of the European Parliament, Martin Schulz, for calling Turks “dirty and polluted” during a debate. Referencing article 165 of the European Parliament's rules of procedure, Schulz stated that Synadinos' sentence represented "a breach of the values of the EU”.
