"Ragousis will have to walk over 50.000 corpses"

The meeting held at noon on Wednesday between SATA Chairman Thimios Lyberopoulos and the Secretary of the Transport Ministry had no positive result.

Immediately after the meeting, Mr. Lymperopoulos advised protesters gathered outside the ministry that he had declared their intentions to the Secretary-General. However, he stated that their struggle would continue.

Mr. Liberopoulos specifically stated that if the government makes one move without notifying them, they will have to walk over 50.000 corpses, while he added that taxi drivers will be present at all the rallies, starting today.

Taxi drivers have a new appointment for 5pm pn Thursday outside the SATA offices, while they will proceed to a march on the Parliament.

In addition to the motorists, employees of Mass Transportation had also gathered outside the ministry as part of their 24-hour strike.

Four riot police buses and a strong police force had been outside the ministry since early morning, while a slight tumult was created when the protesters requested that the former withdraw from the area.
