A delegation  from main opposition Radical Left Coalition (SYRIZA)  had a briefing meeting on the issue of Germany’s war reparations to Greece with a Hamburg-Distomo Initiative delegation headed by distinguished German lawyer Martin Klingner, on Wednesday.

The meeting was also attended by representatives of the National Council for the Claim of German Debts.

A SYRIZA announcement underlined that the party delegation was briefed in detail on the Initiative’s important social, political and legal proposals and actions aimed at informing German public opinion on the Nazi war crimes in Greece and the need to restore historical truth, implement international law and compensate the victims’ families.

The SYRIZA delegation referred to the commitments it has undertaken with regard to the issue of the forced occupation loan extracted from the country by the Nazi regime, the German WWII reparations and the victims’ compensation, as well as the relevant initiatives undertaken in Greece. SYRIZA also underlined its close cooperation with the National Council for the Claim of German Debts and expressed the gratitude of the Greek people to the Initiative for its work.
