Brussels, 01/02/2006
Christos Polyzogopoulos, President of the Greek national trade union centre (GSEE) and member of the ETUC Executive Committee, was seriously injured yesterday, following a violent attack by members of anarchist and far left groups. Mr Polyzogopoulos had to be hospitalized.
The ETUC deplores this life threatening act against a union leader and expresses its concerns at such extremist activities observed recently in Greece.
