Electricity Authority of Cyprus (AHK) Workers' Strike: 'The Cup Has Overflowed'

Workers at the Electricity Authority of Cyprus (AHK) held a two-hour work stoppage, expressing their dissatisfaction with the unfavorable treatment they receive from the state. They accuse the government of lacking support for AHK's efforts to produce cheap electricity and reduce costs for consumers. They point out that the Auditor General's report reveals AHK's exclusion from Renewable Energy Sources (RES). The workers state their willingness to escalate their mobilizations, demanding an investigation into potential omissions by former energy officials and the immediate upgrade of the Dekeleia power station.
