Greeks From Sweden Visit Lagadas

image11Greek migrant students from Sweden, in particular from Kalmar District high school paid a visit on Feb. 20 to the Mayor of Lagadas, Ioannis Anastasiadis, in the northern Greek city.

The visit was part of a school students’ project to interview the mayor and ask him about the economic crisis and the problems it is causing for municipalities and residents.

The meeting discussed a wide range of issues, especially the impact of austerity measures on Greek families and everyday life, and the prospects for recovery in the economy, with unemployment at a record 27 percent.

Anastasiadis told the students that a Hellenes Abroad department is to be opened at Lagadas. He invited them to communicate and collaborate not only with the department but also with the Greek community in their homeland.
