Christian Democracy (Greece)

Christian Democracy is a Greek political party founded on November 29, 1953, by Nikolaos Psaroudakis. Its political activity was banned during the dictatorship of the Colonels (1967-1974). It was re-established on 6 January 1975 as a social movement that activates its party character whenever it considers appropriate. Since the founding of the Movement, the newspaper "Christianiki" has been continuously published, with the exception of the period when the dictatorship of the Colonels had imposed preventive censorship and from December 1973 to July 1974, when the dictatorial regime closed the newspaper.
