Athens, January 28 (RHC)-- Greece's new prime minister, Alexis Tsipras, visited a World War II National Resistance Memorial in his first outing as the country's new leader.
The memorial is located at the site where the Nazis executed 200 Greek Communist resistance fighters in May 1944. During the recent campaign, Tsipras called on Germany to pay Greece reparations for damages incurred during the Nazi occupation.
A 2013 governmental study determined Germany owed Greece an estimated $200 billion.
