Podcast - The life and legacy of Costas Simitis
Costas Simitis, who served as Greece's prime minister between 1996 and 2004, died at the age of 88 on January 5. He left behind a bountiful legacy, which included Greece's entry into the euro and a raft of infrastructure projects.
His record, though, is contested by some Greeks who feel that the seeds of future problems were sown during his period in office.
On this episode of The Agora, host Nick Malkoutzis discusses Simitis's contribution and record with Kathimerini columnist Nikos Konstandaras.
