Greek strikes and protests

Michael Burke: The scale of the action by Greek unions is evident even from this short clip. ADEDY is the main public sector trade union which organised the strike. Its General Secrtary has announced that his organisation had decided to support the call of General Confederation of Labour GSEE’s (which operates in the private sector) for a second General Strike on February 24th.
