On this day, 12 February 1945, the treaty of Varkiza was signed in Greece, when communist anti-Nazi partisans agreed to surrender their weapons in return for amnesty and participation in politics. However the Right failed to hold up their end of the bargain and began mass arrests and killings of communists. It was a key event in the buildup to the Civil War, in which the Greek government, including Nazi collaborators, supported by the British and Americans fought the Greek resistance movements. The conflict lasted for years with the victory of the Right.
