Thousands of people in Greece and other European cities took to the streets to protest austerity measures and support the Greek government in its debt negotiations with its lenders. “Down with austerity”, “Let Greece breathe” were the main slogans shouted by old and young.
In Athens more than 20,000 people gathered outside the Parliament at Syntagma Square in a peaceful rally.
