Standoff between Rouvikonas and staff at Athens University

New tension at the Philosophical School of the University of Athens after the teachers and members of the administration prevented members of the anarchist group Rouvikonas from opening their “office” there.

Rouvikonas appeared at 10 am to open the “office” in the School, as they had announced. However, they were confronted by the academic and administrative staff who had formed a human chain so that the members of the Rubikon could not pass.

Since then there has been tension as neither the professors nor the anarchists are stepping back.

As Mrs. Fountopoulou, president of the Physical Education Section, told TV channel SKAI, the Rouvikonas members are all students of the Philosophy School who have joined the anarchist group.

Room 516 had been taken over last Wednesday by Rubikon.

At the time, the anarchist group had announced that their office would be open every Wednesday from 10 am to 1 am.
