Greek Cypriot Farmers’ "Grain Anger"

Simerini and Mahi newspapers reported that a coalition of farmers’ organizations, at an extraordinary general meeting, decided to send a letter to Greek Cypriot President Tasos Papadopulos requesting that the decision be revoked. According to news reports, the demonstrators will block the roads leading to the Greek Cypriot Presidential Palace if the government doesn’t agree to the letter s request. Despite the strong criticism of the government’s decision, some organizations support it. The farmers’ organization EKA showed its support by voting against the motion to send the letter to Papadopulos.
