FIRST TV BROADCAST IN BELGIUM
After its first TV broadcasts in Germany (WDR), the Arab world (Al Jazeera Arabic), Finland (YLE) and Spain (TVC), more and more TV networks program AGORΑ, the documentary film-arc of the Greek crisis by Yorgos Avgeropoulos, in an effort to introduce their viewers to a revealing and thorough analysis of the effects caused by austerity policies in Greece at a time when such policies expand in Europe. Belgium comes next: AGORΑ will have shortly its Belgian premiere, with two TV broadcasts being scheduled by Public Television RTBF on Thursday 26 February at 21:15 and on Saturday 28 February at 22.50.
