    [03] Greek Cypriot trade unions - KTOS

    Nicosia, Feb 7 (CNA) - Three Greek Cypriot teachers' unions, POED, OELMEK and OLTEK, have sent a letter to Education International, requesting the organisation's intervention to terminate the oppressive measures taken by the self-styled regime in the Turkish occupied areas of Cyprus against the fraternal Turkish Cypriot union of teachers, KTOS.

    In their letter, the Greek Cypriot trade unions state that the Turkish Cypriot teachers dared to publish a message in the form of a paid advertisement in the Tukrish Cypriot press, demanding from Turkey "to leave Turkish Cypriots in peace, because they do not want her money or her proposed set of austerity measures, nor do they want to be her slaves".
