Activities
An obituary said:
Vasilis Kafiris was a consistent and always modest soldier of the Democratic Party. From the ranks of the PAK, he fought against the seven years of the junta. Then with the post-dictatorship, as the founding member of PASOK, along with Andreas Papandreou, something which linked them with a close friendship, he again gave the present for the construction of democracy and change. His contribution to the rural world of the country was great, with the modernization of the Agricultural Bank, in which he served as governor until 1987. But also with his scientific and research work in the USA, where he was found for his postgraduate studies, he received great recognition from the university community and the state.[4]
