Hector Tsironikos
Hektor Tsironikos ( Greek Έκτωρ Τσιρονίκος Ektor Tsironikos , * 1882 in Arachova , † 1964 in Athens ) was a Greek entrepreneur and right-wing extremist politician.
Life
Tsironikos grew up in Arachova and in 1903 moved to Rostov in Russia, where he worked as a trader. After the October Revolution he moved to Constantinople and on to Brussels , where he worked as an economic attaché for the Greek embassy from 1934 . In 1940 he moved to Greece, where he held various offices under German occupation. Since his “friendliness towards German was beyond any doubt”, says Hermann Neubacher , the latter appointed him finance and super minister for all “productive resorts”. In 1944 he founded the “εξόριστης δωσιλογικής εν Βιέννη ελληνικής κυβέρνησης κυβέρνησης κυβέρνησης”, a kind of National Socialist government in exile in Vienna.
Tsironikos was sentenced to death in absentia on May 31, 1945. He was arrested by Americans in the same year and taken to Greece in 1947. On April 3, 1952, he was pardoned by the Greek state. Tsironikos died in an old people's home in Athens in 1964.
