Foreign Office blasts Greece for terrorist’s release
The British Foreign Office has followed the US State Department in condemning the new bill that will allow the release from prison of Greek 17 November terrorist Savvas Xiros.
In a statement, the Foreign Office says that it strongly believes that the “terrorists who committed serious crimes should serve their entire sentence as defined by the Greek courts”.
It adds that “their early release sends an unacceptable message to terrorists and their supporters and fails to pay respect to the victims' families."
The Greek government insists that Xiros will not be set free, but will be held under house arrest.
