School and university students demonstrations:Spend money on education, not war

School and university students shouted out loud "enough is enough" to the continuous degradation of their lives and studies by holding a mass demonstration in Athens and many other cities in Greece on Monday 4 November.

Thousands of school and university put forward their demands and highlighted the responsibilities of the policy of the New Democracy government, which undermines the contemporary rights to education and the life of the youth, intensifies the repression of struggles, while at the same time spending billions on military armaments and participation in imperialist missions of NATO and the EU, leaving huge gaps in education, teachers, infrastructure, dormitories, etc. They also sent a strong message against the imperialist wars and our country’s involvement and expressed their solidarity with the heroic people of Palestine with a banner in front of the Parliament that read: “One year of genocide in Gaza: 11057 school students dead – 716 university students dead – 77 schools completely destroyed – 51 university buildings completely destroyed. History has a right side, we stand with Palestine until liberation”.
