Amalia compared the events that, as she wrote, were happening during those days in France with the "Red May" of 1968. She argued that there were similarities in the demands and images of conflicts with the police, arsons, and vandalism. She presented the leftists as the main actors of the mobilizations at that time and, in a secondary role, their descendants, while stating that the leading role was now taken by people of French origin from Africa. According to her narrative, the unrest of 1968 began on March 22 with an occupation at the University of Nanterre. After its closure on May 2, the clashes spread to the Sorbonne and the streets of Paris. Amalia stated that on May 6 there were about 500 injured, and that the tension peaked on May 10, during the "Night of the Barricades," when Daniel Cohn-Bendit, known as "Red Dani," emerged. Amalia wrote that on May 13, unions controlled by the Socialist and Communist Parties declared a 24-hour strike and participated in the demonstrations. In the following days, according to her, factory occupations and strikes in various sectors paralyzed production, with the country being, as she claimed, on the brink of a civil war by May 20. She mentioned that on May 22, Cohn-Bendit went to Germany and the Netherlands, but the French government revoked his residence permit and did not allow him to return. According to Amalia, this development led to new incidents, while the leftists were left without guidance. Amalia said that General Charles de Gaulle ultimately chose to address the people instead of deploying the army on the streets. On May 30, he announced the dissolution of the National Assembly and elections within 22 days, while, as she wrote, about 500,000 people demonstrated in Paris in support of him. She added that in the elections on June 23 and 30, the Right won 358 out of 485 seats. She also noted that leftists later accused the French Communist Party of abandoning the revolution under orders from Moscow. She cited Mattei Dogan's work "How Civil War Was Avoided in France" as a source. #Γαλλία #ΚόκκινοςΜάης #Ιστορία (translated)

Nikolas Apelaios II described the days leading up to the Italian attack on Greece, from October 23 to 27, 1940, stating that the Greek ambassador in Rome had informed the government that the attack was expected between October 25 and 28. According to him, Italian reconnaissance aircraft were photographing military points of interest, while senior Greek officials considered the attack imminent. Apelaios reported that on October 24, Ioannis Metaxas recorded in his diary rumors of an attack the next day and informed the chiefs of staff to remain in Athens or to notify where they were. On October 25, according to the post, Metaxas informed the Cabinet about the concentration of Italian troops at the border, and the government rejected both substantial territorial concessions and symbolic gestures toward Italy. He noted that Metaxas and his ministers did not attend the premiere of the opera "Madama Butterfly" at the Royal Theater on October 25, in the presence of Antonio Puccini and Curzio Malaparte. From the government, as he wrote, Deputy Foreign Minister Mavroudis and Deputy Minister of Press Nikolidis attended. The next day, Ambassador Politis reported that the Athens–Rome airline had been suspended until further notice. In his narrative, at the reception of the Italian embassy on October 26, Ambassador Grazzi was often absent, while on the upper floor the ultimatum to Greece was being dictated from Rome. Nikolidis called Metaxas early on October 27 regarding reports of incidents at the border. Apelaios noted that the Athens News Agency denied the news at 04:00, following an order from Metaxas. Apelaios also wrote that, on October 27, Greek and Italian officers met to discuss the incidents, while the Greek government was receiving information about the movements of Italian units towards the border. He added that shortly after Metaxas left his office, information arrived from the Italian embassy that a declaration of war was imminent, but it was decided not to inform him. According to him, the Prime Minister's car departed for Kifisia without him knowing the information. #Ιστορία #Ελλάδα #ΔεύτεροςΠαγκόσμιοςΠόλεμος (translated)
