“I would like to stress the important contribution of the Hellenic Observatory in better understanding modern Greece. Since it was founded in 1996, the Observatory has been gradually evolving into a prominent research centre for the analysis of economic, social, institutional and political aspects of Greece. I am convinced that the programme will continue to flourish and provide us with valuable research insights”.
Statement by the ex-Prime Minister of Greece, Mr Costas Karamanlis, during his lecture at the LSE on 20 November 2006
