Description
The record of Greece's Christian population in its attitude to the country's Jews during the German occupation of the country during World War II is an honourable one. No Jews were turned in to the Germans despite rewards offered for doing so. Jews were, indeed, considered Greek citizens and thus regarded in a positive light by the Christian majority. Despite this, 95 % of Saloniki's Jewish population was deported to Auschwitz.
