Anti-bailout protest rallies underway in central Athens
Leftist groups and unions are holding protest rallies outside the Greek parliament on Wednesday evening against the prior actions expected to be voted by lawmakers this evening.
Police has blocked the surrounding streets while riot police vans are lining Vassilisis Sofias avenue. Among the participants in the rallies include POE-OTA, the union representing local authority workers, Communist-affiliated union PAME, leftist group ANTARSYA and main coalition partner SYRIZA’s youth party.
