Twin demonstrations against memorandums underway in Athens
A demonstration against the second package of prior actions being debate in Parliament began outside the gates of Athens university late on Wednesday, with a march to Parliament organised by the civil servants' union federation ADEDY.
Meanwhile, a second demonstration and march organised by the PAME trade union faction, affiliated to the Communist Party of Greece (KKE), set off for Parliament from Omonia Square.
The two marches arrived in Syntagma Square almost simultaneously, with the ADEDY march occupying the top half of the square and PAME supporters the lower end.
The demonstrators plan to remain in Syntagma until the vote on the measures in Parliament.
