Athens, February 7 (RHC)-- A Greek government minister has vowed the new administration will use its veto to block a massive free trade deal between the United States and European Union.
Critics of the pact, known as TTIP, or the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership, say it would sacrifice environmental and safety regulations for the benefit of corporations.
Greek Minister Georgios Katrougkalos told the news network EurActiv a Syriza-led parliament would veto the deal in what he called a "gift to all European people."
