Thousands of protesters have gathered outside the parliament building in Athens, Greece on Sunday.
Unions for railway workers have been raising the alarm for years about the safety of the Greek railways, which have long been considered the deadliest in Europe.
Inadequate security systems, inadequate signaling systems, staff shortages and substandard training are some of the problems raised by the unions.
The protests started after the fatal train accident in the country, when a passenger train with around 350 people collided head-on with a freight train on February 28.
At least 57 people died and around 80 more were injured. Several are still missing.
It is still unclear why the trains were on the same track.

Climate activists from the group The last generation sprayed down a work of art near the German parliament in Berlin, TT reports.
With black liquid, which would symbolize “soaking in oil”, they sprayed down the work of the artist Dani Karavan “Grundgesetz 49”. They also put up posters with the text “Oil or fundamental rights”.
Bärbel Bas, spokesperson for the German parliament, stated that the work of art is about respecting and protecting fundamental rights such as freedom of expression, and hoped that the work did not suffer permanent damage.
In a statement, the climate activists responded, writing that “the German government does not protect our fundamental rights”. The activists pointed to the continued burning of oil as an example of that.

What is required for a country to be excluded from NATO?
Boss Lind
Hello! It is a bit unclear if and, if so, how it can happen, because since NATO was formed in 1949, no country has been excluded. There is also no exclusion clause.
On the other hand, it has been discussed in and between the countries how to approach if a member clearly violates its commitments or the principles of the treaty. On FOI’s website you can read more about it.
