🇬🇷 Ohi Day: A Defining Moment in Greek History
As Ohi Day approaches on October 28th, let’s remember the courage and resilience of the Greek people. This historic day commemorates Greece’s bold rejection of the Axis forces’ ultimatum in 1940, when Prime Minister Ioannis Metaxas famously responded with a firm "Ohi" (No) to Mussolini’s demand for occupation.
This refusal led Greece into World War II and sparked a period of fierce resistance against fascism, marking Greece’s crucial role in the global struggle for freedom.
Today, Greeks worldwide honor the spirit of unity and defiance that defines this day with parades, tributes, and remembrance.
Let’s reflect on the significance of Ohi Day as a symbol of strength, freedom, and national pride. 💙 🕊️
