Portuguese people protest again against government and troika
- Anika3, CNN iReport producer
This afternoon the Portuguese people took the streets again to protest against the government and troika. The manifestation was organized by CGTP, the country's biggest union confederation, and dozens of thousands of protesters and activists filled the country's largest square in Lisbon, Terreiro do Paço, making a success of the second protest that took place this month against the government's austerity program. A general strike is being considered and the fight won't stop until goals are achieved.
