Until tomorrow, Thursday (6/11/2025) at 6 in the morning, the strike of taxi, as was decided after the meeting that the representatives of the drivers had with the Deputy Minister of Infrastructure and Transport, Konstantinos Kyranakis.
The taxi strike will not last 48 hours as planned but 24, since as stated by Thymios Lymberopoulos it will end tomorrow at 6 am. The strike was initially declared as a reaction to the new Joint Ministerial Decision (JMA) of ministers Constantinos Kyranakis and Olgas Kefalogiannis.
According to SATA, this decision “puts a gravestone on the taxi profession and gives public passenger transport to large private interests”.
Another highlight was the mandatory electrification of taxis from 1-1-2026, which the union describes as an “attempt to exterminate thousands of professionals”.
The professionals met at 10:00 in the morning on Spyrou Patsis Street to proceed with the mobilization. They started the motorcade on Wednesday morning to the Ministry of Transport, asking to meet with the Deputy Minister of Transport, Konstantinos Kyranakis.
