The media has also covered up the fact that there was a Metaxas youth called EON during that period. They do their best to erase video clips showing how Greeks used to salute their leader between 1936- 1941. The mainstream media has taken all steps to bury the fact that Greece up to 1940 had warm relations with both allies and axis powers. This was the Nationalist aspect of the 4th of August movement that the media has been trying to hide for years. Metaxas was not going to allow any foreign nation to dictate him nor his country. Up to that day Greece had wished to remain neutral like Franco’s Spain but being that Greece was a strategic key for both Allies and Axis their fate was not to be as lucky as Spain’s.


It is the day the great leader Ioannis Metaxas said No to Mussolini’s demands to allow Italian troops to enter Greece. Every year October 28th Greece celebrates “OXI” day with a glorious militaristic parade on a main boulevard of Athens.
