Greek Workers in New Protest Against Cuts (video)

Hundreds of people from Greece’s two main private and public sector unions protested in central Athens Saturday to condemn the government’s new bailout deal with international lenders.
Around 1,500 people marched to the capital’s main Syntagma Square, in front of the Greek parliament, with banners proclaiming: “No to the new memorandum” and “Resist!”.
Trade unions say that the new payout will see more misery for the population in the shape of additional and tougher austerity measures.
Most Greeks no longer have confidence in the country’s political system, according to an opinion poll published in the daily To Vima last week.
GSEE and ADEDY have called a general strike on June 15, the third this year against the government’s economic policies, and protests on June 9 at state companies under threat of privatization.
