Dear friends from Finland!
We are a team of people living in Kilkis, Greece (north country) that try to stop the beginning of a gold-uranium mining in our town.
We like to send you a short historic about the facts, are mail adress and ask you for solidarity and communication. Unfortunately it is not only our town facing this problem. Also a part of Halkidiki, Komotini and Alexandroupoli have been solded out to foreign investors in order to transform us into open-pits.

An article in english by EJOLT.org (by that time we hadn't figured out the uranium extraction - only gold was mentioned by our state)

PS: I forgot to mention that greek state and company people are refering to Finland and Sweden as mining examples that we should copy ! They forgot to mention the opposition
