Violent Clashes Erupt in Greece Over Private University Bill

Protests against the proposed legalization of privately-run universities in Greece have led to violent clashes and exam disruptions.

Police and student protesters clashed in Athens and Thessaloniki, with incidents of violence and arrests reported.
The center-right government's bill aims to legalize privately-run universities to prevent brain drain and enhance labor market relevance.
Opponents argue the bill would undermine state universities and limit higher education access for low-income families.
Several protests have disrupted university classes and exams, with more demonstrations planned.
Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis urged university administrators to seek police assistance against 'illegal actions' by protesters.
