Puskás' former interpreter becomes his compatriot
05 May. 2018.
Ferenc Puskás' close friend and former interpreter in Athens, Nikolaos Sakulis, who has done such a lot to help preserve the memory of the Hungarian sports legend in Greece, has received Hungarian citizenship. Hearty congratulations to our new compatriot!
Just as many of his Greek countrymen did, Nikolaos Sakulis first came to Hungary as a child in 1948 at the height of the Greek Civil War. He attended primary and middle school before taking an active part in the 1956 Hungarian Uprising as a member of the National Council in Csongrád, organising and transporting relief supplies to the inhabitants of Budapest.
