Greek Teachers' Strike Deemed Illegal: Union Vows to Continue Fight

Greek Teachers' Strike Deemed Illegal: ADEDY Vice President Speaks Out Athens, Greece – A long-running strike by Greek educators, organized by the All-Workers' Confederation of Greece (ADEDY), has been declared illegal by a court. The strike, which began years ago in protest against teacher evaluations, has involved thousands of teachers. The video interview with ADEDY Vice President, V. Petropoulos, reveals the union's perspective on the decision. "For years, we've participated in a strike and abstention from evaluation," stated Petropoulos in a recent interview. "Recently, it was deemed illegal." This statement highlights the union's commitment to their position, despite the legal ramifications. The video also includes statistics showing that a significant portion of the 50,000 educators refused to participate in the evaluation process. This underscores the widespread nature of the protest and the potential impact on the educational system. The decision to declare the strike illegal raises questions about the future of the dispute and the potential consequences for participating teachers. The union's next steps remain to be seen, but the situation highlights the ongoing tensions between educators and the government over evaluation policies.
