Fox News
Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis on Sunday asked for forgiveness from the families of the 57 victims who died after two trains collided head-on last week.
"As prime minister, I owe everyone, but above all to the relatives of the victims, a big sorry," Mitsotakis wrote. "Both personally, and in the name of all those who have ruled the country for years."
At least 57 people died when a passenger train with more than 350 people aboard crashed head-on with a freight carrier late Tuesday at Tempe, 235 miles north of Athens. Many of the victims were in their teens and 20s.
