Thousands Rally in Athens to Back Syriza Rejection of Austerity 
----------------------------------------------------------------


 
In a show of support for the government's position, thousands of people
rallied in Athens on Wednesday to reject internationally imposed
austerity.

Protester: "The crucial point now is solidarity. We need solidarity.
That's the whole point. And the elections sent a message, I believe,
sent a crucial message to all European people that now we have to be
united and we need solidarity."
