Bombings are response to financial crisis, say Greek militants
A GREEK militant group threatened to continue its bombing campaign in a statement published yesterday, and claimed recent attacks against Citibank were in response to the international financial crisis.
The weekly newspaper Pontiki published a statement from the Revolutionary Struggle group claiming responsibility for a failed car bomb attack on Citibank offices in Athens on 18 February, and a bomb attack on Monday on a suburban Citibank branch.
The Pontiki has been used by the militant group in the past to publish its proclamations. In its latest statement, Revolutionary Struggle argued that the American bank was part of a "criminal network of international capital" responsible for the financial crisis.
