As it was pointed out by Mrs Konstantopoulou in her speech  "there is an inalienable duty to our country,to freedom and  for democracy. This debt can not be forgoten  and can not be deleted especially by those who speak about  other debts, which has not even by now been   proven to be legitimate and payable. 
The Speaker noted that "we honor those who were sacrificed not only by  commemorating  them, but also with our daily practice and attitude, with the example and the model of our life."
          This was followed by a wreath at the monument, a minute's silence and the death roll of 212 dead. The ceremony was also attended by  the Deputy Minister of Defence Costas Isihos, by MP Mr Constantine Zacharias, by the  mayor of Megalopolis Mr Dionysis  Papadopoulos, the Regional governor  of Peloponnese Mr Tatoulis, a  representative of the German Embassy in Athens, representatives of Greek resistance during the war, with whom the Speaker  of the Parliament, had a brief conversation
