It is the first time that the police react that way and so strongly against any Greek government, which not only clearly for a decision but also to criticize erroneous use of the classes of instruments not appropriate in a democratic country!

The representatives of the security forces while they asked the government not to promote the new settings for the pension, but also to recognize the specificity of their profession.

Then comes the whole announcement
"In recent days watching speechless repeated Kos theater of the absurd with the occasion of the construction hot spots, despite the reactions occurring daily and danger lurking uncontrolled escalation of tension for police and citizens. It seems the misfortune of Keratea to war, attacks against police forces, injuries and risk exposure for months an entire region, was not subject.
We denounce the casualness with which the squads moving ordered to enforce a government decision, in flagrant violation not only the official regulations and the principles of our democracy. Instead of democratic dialogue is used once the Greek Police as a repressive force sake of deadlock and government policy considerations in our country.
Colleagues hastily transferred to the island without a complete individual equipment and without having ensured the planned logistics for an extended move this goal. Result of our first few hours four colleagues have suffered injuries to various parts of the body from the attacks they receive with shotguns, dynamites and other explosives thrown against them. While receiving and threats to their living accommodation, who denounced us as no adequate safety measures are taken.
The workplace middle ages that tends to prevail on the movements of the Division squads Attica Police Operations in no way touches leadership and government, bearing full responsibility for their own choices.
We warn that any responsible in case of serious injuries our colleagues will be on our part search and imputation responsibility.
Greek policeman is neither scapegoat nor punching bag. He is entitled to be a public servant who is respected and citizens' assessment. This role we urge the government not only to preserve but also to promote it as it likes to repeat rather than undermines constantly endanger the lives of our colleagues.
Finally, we condemn the attacks and violence against the police and our colleagues and invite everyone to realize that the role of the police is not juxtaposed with society nor anyone protesting our fellow citizens. "
