Theodoros Pangalos, Greek lawyer and politician, Deputy Prime Minister of Greece (died 2023)

Theodoros Pangalos was a Greek politician and leading member of the Panhellenic Socialist Movement (PASOK). He served as the deputy prime minister of Greece, responsible for the coordination of the Government Council for Foreign Affairs and Defense (KYSEA) and the new Economic & Social Policy Committee from 2009 to 2012.

The Deputy Prime Minister of Greece is the second most senior member of the Cabinet. Despite the English translation of the title, he does not actually deputize for the Prime Minister, rather it is a mostly honorific post for senior ministers, and is usually combined with another senior government portfolio or a coordinating role over several ministries. The post is not permanent, rather it is created on an ad hoc basis, usually for the leaders of junior parties in coalition cabinets, and may be held by more than one person at once.

August 17 is the 229th day of the year in the Gregorian calendar; 136 days remain until the end of the year.
