| Subject: US blacklists two Greek 'terrorists' in row over new law Wed Apr 22, 2015 1:03 am | |
| The United States blacklisted two Greek extremists Tuesday amid anger over a new law which could see a bombmaker from a radical group accused of killing Americans released early from prison.
US Secretary of State John Kerry had personally voiced concerns to the new Greek government that, under the legislation, Savvas Xiros, a bombmaker for the November 17 group would be freed to serve the rest of his term under house arrest.
The shadowy movement was behind the 1975 killing of the CIA's Athens station chief, Richard Welch, and claimed responsibility for assassinating 23 people in scores of attacks on US, British, Turkish and Greek targets between the 1970s and 1990s.
