Since the very first conference counter-action has been generated in Greece
from several groups from all over the country including mass demonstrations
(see report and video from the 3rd conference

This year due to some parallel anti-fascist demonstrations taking place very
close to the point of the anti-biotech gathering and extent street conflicts
between police, fascists and activists the whole thing got interrupted and
focused mostly to action within & outside the conference. (Watch all the fun

Further counter-action is already being organised with the aim to inflict
the institutionalised status of the Greek representatives of Global Biotech
Engines. Keep in touch for more…
