A dispute between Germany and Greece over World War Two reparation claims has added to tensions between the two countries over Athens' bailout repayments and the pace of its economic reforms.
Greece's deputy finance minister claimed on Monday that Germany owed Greece nearly 279 billion euros in reparations for the Nazi occupation of the country in the 1940's.
Germany was quick to dismiss the claims - its economy minister called them "stupid" - and stressed it had already settled its reparation…

Greece is demanding more than $300 billion from Germany as compensation for World War II damages. Germany says it already has settled its reparations to Greece in a post-war agreement. The latest dispute adds to the tensions between the two countries, caused by Greece's inability to pay off its European Union loan. Meanwhile, as Zlatica Hoke reports, the Greek government is looking into boosting ties with Russia.

Greece's Justice Minister Nikos Paraskevopoulos threatened German authorities, during a session of parliament in Athens, Wednesday, with the possibility of confiscating German assets within Greece if Germany does not engage in serious negotiations over war reparations.
Nikos Paraskevopoulos, Justice Minister of Greece (Greek): "I am of the opinion that the decision of the Supreme Court, according to which there is extraterritoriality and therefore immunity of the respondent German state, does not negate the enforceability of the decision issued by the Areopagos [Greek Court of Cassation] in 2000 because it does not concern the same case. The decision of the Areopagos can still be implemented and I am personally ready to allow its implementation [applause]. Due to the legal complexity of the issue as well as its national dimensions, the timing will also depend on the political negotiation that the government will attempt and on the Greek parliament's opinion."

German President Joachim Gauck expressed support on Friday for Athens' demands for reparations for the Nazi occupation of Greece in World War Two, even though the government in Berlin has repeatedly rejected the claims. Gauck, who has little real power in Germany but a penchant for defying convention, said in an interview to be published in Saturday's Sueddeutsche Zeitung newspaper that Germany should consider its historical responsibility to Greece. Greece's demand for 278.7 billion euros in reparations for the brutal Nazi occupation have mostly fallen on deaf ears, but some legal experts say it may have a case.

War reparations are payments intended to cover damage or injury during a war. Generally, the term war reparations refers to money or goods changing hands, rather than such property transfers as the annexation of land.
Making the defeated party pay a war indemnity is a common practice with a long history.
Rome imposed large indemnities on Carthage after the First and Second Punic Wars.
The 'unequal treaties' signed by the Qing dynasty in China, Japan, Korea, Siam, Persia, Ottoman Empire, Afghanistan and other countries in the nineteenth century included payments of indemnities to the victorious Western powers, mainly United Kingdom, France and Russia, and later Japan.[citation needed]
Following the Greco-Turkish War (1897), defeated Greece was forced to pay a large war indemnity to Turkey (£4 million). Greece, which was already in default, was forced to agree to see its public finances overseen by an international financial commission.
After the Franco-Prussian War, according to conditions of Treaty of Frankfurt (May 10, 1871), France was obliged to pay a war indemnity of 5 billion gold francs in 5 years. German troops remained in parts of France until the last installment of the indemnity was paid in September 1873, before the obliged date.[citation needed]

Greece is demanding more than $300 billion from Germany as compensation for World War II damages. Germany says it already has settled its reparations to Greece in a post-war agreement. The latest dispute adds to the tensions between the two countries, caused by Greece's inability to pay off its European Union loan. Meanwhile, as Zlatica Hoke reports, the Greek government is looking into boosting ties with Russia.

Greece's Justice Minister Nikos Paraskevopoulos threatened German authorities, during a session of parliament in Athens, Wednesday, with the possibility of confiscating German assets within Greece if Germany does not engage in serious negotiations over war reparations.
Nikos Paraskevopoulos, Justice Minister of Greece (Greek): "I am of the opinion that the decision of the Supreme Court, according to which there is extraterritoriality and therefore immunity of the respondent German state, does not negate the enforceability of the decision issued by the Areopagos [Greek Court of Cassation] in 2000 because it does not concern the same case. The decision of the Areopagos can still be implemented and I am personally ready to allow its implementation [applause]. Due to the legal complexity of the issue as well as its national dimensions, the timing will also depend on the political negotiation that the government will attempt and on the Greek parliament's opinion."

German President Joachim Gauck expressed support on Friday for Athens' demands for reparations for the Nazi occupation of Greece in World War Two, even though the government in Berlin has repeatedly rejected the claims. Gauck, who has little real power in Germany but a penchant for defying convention, said in an interview to be published in Saturday's Sueddeutsche Zeitung newspaper that Germany should consider its historical responsibility to Greece. Greece's demand for 278.7 billion euros in reparations for the brutal Nazi occupation have mostly fallen on deaf ears, but some legal experts say it may have a case.
