On July 14th, 2022, Prime Minister of Greece Kyriakos Mitsotakis was joined by other top officials of his party New Democracy (ND) in expressing their condolences to the family of a 20-year-old student killed exactly 30 years ago in a domestic terrorist attack. Thanos Axarlian was an innocent passerby, in the wrong place at the wrong time on that afternoon in 1992. The intended target had been the country’s Minister of Finance, who escaped unharmed thanks to his armored sedan. The group responsible for the attack was Greece’s oldest and most lethal Marxist-Leninist urban guerilla group, the Revolutionary Organization—17 November (17N).
Not that i know of. Were i more competent in modren Greek, i would set aside everything i was doing to translate it myself. Perhaps i will find the discilpine to do so soon. Until then, there are plenty of capable people, who i hope take on this task if they have not already.
Unfortunately my Greek language skills are very limited also. Could you recommend any more recent reading material. I have a lot of the conspiracy cells of fire publications but these are quite old now.
George Kassimeris is the best scholar I’ve encountered on 17N. However, I am limited by my inability to read Greek journals and analysis, so it is likely that someone born, raised and living in Greece has produced superb analsyis that this American dumbass is ignorant of
Is the Koufodinas book available in English?
