Farmers in Greece are escalating their protests in response to the measures announced by the government. They are proceeding with road blockades in an effort to pressure for the satisfaction of their demands. Specifically, blockades are planned at various points in Central Greece, including the Tempi Tunnels, on the E65 (Karditsa, Trikala), and on the Athens-Lamia National Road (Kastro, Thebes). Farmers express their disappointment with the government announcements, believing that they do not meet their needs. The protests have begun and are expected to continue until Friday, with the possibility of further escalation. Farmers state they are determined to fight for their rights and demand a sustainable solution to their problems.
