With another record summer tourism season kicking in for Greece, the United Kingdom’s Foreign Office told British travelers to expect a range of problems visiting the country, such as passport scrutiny, strikes, extreme weather, the mosquito-carried West Nile virus and even terror attacks.
Anarchists have been rampaging across Athens, vandalizing a number of targets, including in support for jailed terrorist killer Dimitris Koufodinas, supporting his demand for a seventh furlough from prison where he’s serving 11 life sentences for his role in the November 17 terrorist group killing 23 people, including five Americans attached to the US Embassy.
The warning, said the Sydney, Australia-based Greek City Times, also included reports that travelers could face trouble getting money out of ATM’s even though Greece has rolled back capital controls and tourists were already exempt from how much they could withdraw.
