Greek Farmers March Against Pension Reforms in Athens

Greek farmers from across the country marched through central Athens to the house of parliament on Friday, February 12, in the first day of a three-day protest against pension system reforms. Under the reforms, farmers face higher taxes and their social security contributions tripled. Ahead of the main march, riot police clashed with around 800 farmers from Crete who had gathered outside the ministry for agriculture. Credit: Instagram/Eratosthenis Kostaras
