ATHENS, May 17-- Greece was hit on Wednesday by a new 24-hour general strike against the fresh round of austerity measures that the government has tabled in parliament for vote in a bid to close the pending bailout review and secure further aid by international lenders. About 10,000 protesters, according to police estimates, marched peacefully in the center of Athens in the main rally organized by GSEE and ADEDY, the largest labor unions representing private sector employees and public servants. |
