Labor unions plan Monday afternoon protest in front of Finance Ministry
Greece’s two largest unions, GSEE and ADEDY, have called for a demonstration in front of the Finance Ministry in central Athens at 6 p.m. on Monday.

The unions have also called a three-hour work stoppage from noon on Tuesday to coincide with the visit of Chancellor Angela Merkel. A rally has been planned for 1 p.m. in Syntagma Square.
