30,000 Greek truckers stopped work last week, protesting plans to open up road transport as a condition of the bailout. The strike shut down 4 out of 5 gas stations and stopped deliveries of food. The strike ended on Sunday, as the government threatened to revoke licenses and use the military to deliver fuel. A spokesman for the strikers said that they were willing to reopen talks with the government, but also said that they were going back to work because of the impact the strike was having on people, not because of government threats,
