Anti-austerity protesters marched on the streets of Athens on
Wednesday as Greece moves closer to concluding a deal with lenders on a
multi-billion euro bailout.
For Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras, talks are in their “final stretch”.
But demonstrators reject the reforms they say Tsipras will impose in return.
“It is patently obvious that in September, when the lucky few who
have taken a holiday return, they will find new taxes, new salary cuts,
new measures against workers,” said civil servant Manolis Dandoulakis,
one of those taking part in the rally outside the Labour Ministry.
“And it is now apparent that the people must say a thunderous ‘no.’”
