U Solunu, drugom po veličini gradu u Grčkoj, demonstranti su blokirali pravac parade, a političare je -- osim predsjednika Karlosa Papouliasa i gradonačelnika Soluna Yiannisa Boutarisa -- bilo strah da prisustvuju.
In Thessaloniki, Greece's second-largest city, demonstrators blocked the parade route and politicians -- apart from President Karolos Papoulias and city Mayor Yiannis Boutaris -- were afraid to show.
