German President Visits Greek Village Gutted By Nazi Forces

German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier will on Thursday visit the Greek village of Kandanos in Crete, site of one the worst atrocities committed by Nazi occupation forces during World War II.

The German head of state, who is concluding a three-day state visit to Greece, is expected to stress Germany's political and moral responsibility for the massacre of some 180 villagers by Nazi troops on June 3, 1941.
