Journalists union decided to suspend strike at 6 pm on Monday to follow the crucial Samaras-Venizelos-Kouvelis meeting and inform the public about the outcome. The suspension is planned for 24 hours. Greece’s journalists have been on rolling 24-hour strike since Tuesday, June 11th 2013, when Prime Minister Samaras ordered the sudden shutdown of public broadcaster ERT.
However many journalists working for private media did not follow the unions’ decisions. News programs and info magazines were broadcast last night, but also on Monday morning.
The meeting will start at 7:30 p.m.
