No Go Areas

Colin Powell's visit to Athens looks like causing a bit of a stir.



There are plans by a number of organisations to march to the US embassy in Athens, at 19:00 this evening, to protest about the visit.



However, the police are planning on setting up road blocks; this will ensure that the demonstrations do not get out of hand.



However, the demonstrators don't seem to see it that way; they are reported to be ready to ignore the police road block.



Organisers expect thousands of people to turn up for the demonstration.
