The Federation and Unions of Pensioners held a massive demonstration in Athens center, on Monday, December 12, demanding increases in pensions and return of the cut benefits.

They also demanded to stop any privatization in the public health system with immediate recruitment of doctors and nursing staff, and hiring of staff for the Social Insurance Services etc.

Passing outside the Ministry of Labour, the pensioners sang the “militant carols” to the Minister of Labour, denouncing that so far he has not received their delegation even once.

The demonstration reached the Ministry of Finance where a delegation met with the Ministry and submitted their demands.
