paragraph_text: Greece
  
  Greece has seen notable price increases within the past few years. Within the month of January 2025, fresh meat increased by 3.05%, fresh fish and seafood by 2.87%, and water, juice, and soda by 3.01%, with coffee and chocolate also seeing surges in pricing within the preceding months. A boycott on 19 February in Greece is being organized by INKA, or General Federation of Consumers of Greece. It calls for Greeks to not spend a single euro that day, even calling for avoiding payments to banks, public services, water, electricity and telephone bills, fuel, supermarkets, cafes, restaurants, commercial stores, purchases of electrical and electronic goods, plus any financial transactions. The president of INKA, Giorgos Lechouritis, also called on the Greek government to support this measure.
