The union federation warned in a statement that it would demand an
increase in salaries in the public, state and private sectors, as
well as in pension allowances, should the government fail to
postpone its decision.
According to union research, the increase in electricity and gas
prices could result in an increase of living costs of as much as 55
percent.
