Greece Interstate 6 is a highway in north-central Greece. It begins at Igoumenitsa in the Port of Igoumenitsa and ends at Larissa. Part of the new road is run under the name Via Egnatia from Igoumenitsa to east of the tunnel at Metsovo. It has junctions of GR-19GR-5/20/E55, GR-15, GR-30 and finally at interstates Interstate 3|3 and 1. It runs into four prefectures and the regions of Epirus and Thessaly.
The old road runs through Igoumenitsa, while presently Via Egnatia from east of GR-19 to Metsovo is still under construction. It passes north of Ioannina and its lake, and runs near Perama. It follows by dangerous curves and will create a diversion in the mid-2000s. The new part runs through the tunnel and the old part runs through the town. Another part of dangerous curves, narrow roads and narrow bridges contunues throughout the Pindus and ends near GR-15 (Kalabaka-Grevena highway/route). It runs into Kalampaka and bypasses Trikala. It later passes into the plain and ends east of Larissa. Minor accidents has been reported in the Pindus.
History
The Metsovo Tunnel opened in the late-20th century to bypass Metsovo.
In 1998, Via Egntia began construction and the western half was opened in about 2001/2002?.
In 2003, it was planned to pass into a Ioannina village in which its residents favor a bypass.
Among the counter reform measures of the period 1967-74 were the reduction of compulsory education from 9 to 6 years, the abolition of translated ancient Greek literature texts, and the replacement of social sciences in the new curriculum.
Greece, as a new member of the EEC was being tantalised by problems of imbalances in the structure of the various sectors of the economy.
I graduated (with a honour's degree) from the Department of Sociology of the University of Crete, Greece, in 1993.
In the period 1991-1998, there was no concrete migration policy, as the country was still considered to be a net "exporter" of population.[4] Specialist institutions, such as advice centres for the legal, social and economic orientation of immigrants (especially children), hardly existed.
Greece has viewed this rapprochement with alarm, because she is afraid of the expansion of the Turkish influence in the Balkans, and the potential formation of an "Islamic Arc" (Albania - Bosnia - Turkey) which would run through her borders.
Besides, Greece is still considered an enemy in the Albanian collective conscience, as Hohxa, the former Communist dictator, had cultivated the idea that the country is surrounded by hostile powers ready to dismember her.
