The farmers of the area had started earlier today from Epanomi Square, where about 100-120 tractors were gathered with the aim of reaching the airport hub and holding a peaceful protest there in the form of a symbolic blockade.
As they announced, the measures announced by the prime minister do not cover them, so that they can continue to cultivate the land and have a decent income.
“There is definitely a tombstone in the countryside,” said Iasonas Vogiatzis to Radio Thessaloniki 94.5, a 27-year-old farmer who for four years took over the production of pulses and vines from his parents but is unable to continue.
In any case, the farmers note, their goal is to avoid any inconvenience to the citizens due to their mobilizations.
They don’t want to trouble anyone, they say, but only to make their enormous problems known.
