Miners from nine EPS mines hold protest rally in Belgrade
19:19 BELGRADE , June 26 (Tanjug) - About 500 miners from nine coal mines belonging to the Electric Power Industry of Serbia (EPS) rallied in Belgrade on Thursday, protesting against the Serbian government's decision to
privatize these mines as of January 2004.
Wearing helmets on their heads, the miners strolled the Belgrade streets, carrying posters and shouting slogans, warning the government that a large
number of Serbian workers would lose their jobs once these mines were closed.
