An hour after Merkel’s arrival in Athens on Tuesday, Greek police fired tear gas to disperse over 25,000 anti-austerity protesters in front of the parliament. Security forces also arrested a group of demonstrators.
 
Outraged protesters were carrying banners declaring "You are not welcome, Imperialisten Raus" (Imperialists out)" or "No to the Fourth Reich" while others carried signs marked with the Nazi swastika.
