Photo Gallery 'Greeks No Longer Feel Confident'
In a SPIEGEL interview, Greek writer Nikos Dimou analyses the state of his country's psyche, describing the "deep fears that torment the Greek soul." He blames Greek politicians for the current crisis but insists the EU and Germany only have themselves to blame for the resentment that many Greeks feel.
"Modern Greeks will always suffer from knowing what the ancient Greeks accomplished, which we can neither forget nor surpass," Dimou says. Here, a dress rehearsal for the lighting of the Olympic flame on May 9 in Olympia, Greece.
