GREECE:TRUCK-DRIVER PROTEST CONTINUES, CAUSING BIG LOSSES

The protest of truck-drivers continues in Greece, causing bad losses for the industry. The information is reported by industrial sources while truck drivers block the motorway exits around Athens. The truck-drivers are protesting against the deregulation decided by the Government. “The strike – sources reveal – is causing inestimable damage in all sectors”. During the last few days, the motorway block has intensified and the truck-drivers’ trade union threatened a protest demonstration for tomorrow in Athens. The deregulation provides for the lowering of licence costs and truck-drivers complain that it will harm present truck-drivers who have paid up to 300,000 Euros to obtain their licence
