The date is 25 August 1898. We are in Crete. Ottoman groups attack a British military unit and then massacre hundreds of Christians.
The program “Time in Greece” explores the historical and socio-political context, the causes, and the consequences of the massacre.
How and under what circumstances did the attack take place? Did the Great Powers of the time react? What did the bloody events mean for Crete, threatening both its present and its future?
We delve deep into history, uncovering more and more evidence, with the music of Nikos Xylouris accompanying the broadcast.
