[01] Farmers to end road blocks Wed., rally in Athens March 5
AMNA -- Farmers will end the blocking of the Nikea junction in the central
Greek city of Larissa on Wednesday but will rally in Athens on March 5,
in support of unmet demands.
A delegation of agricultural unions held a series of meetings with
ministers in Athens last week but were told that fiscal constraints on
the state budget prevented the meeting of all of their demands.amna
Farmers have been blocking several junctions in northern Greek roads
for over a month; most except those in Serres, have ended, following
a decision by their coordinating committee to continue the protests by
different means, starting with the rally in Athens.
