Vassilis Christou Rapotikas (1888–1943; Aromanian: Vasil Rapotika; Greek: Βασίλειος Χρήστου Ραποτίκας) was an Aromanian brigand[1] and collaborationist paramilitary leader in Greece during World War II.
He was among leaders of the Roman Legion of the short-lived Italian puppet state of Pindus, right behind Alcibiades Diamandi and Nicolaos Matussis.
This unit sought to carve out a permanent and independent Aromanian state in the Greek regions of Thessaly and Macedonia.
[2] Rapotikas was killed in May or June 1943 by members of the Greek People's Liberation Army near Grizano.
