The correct answer is A) the government threatened to impose austerity measures.

In 2012, the people from Greece engaged in angry public demonstrations because the government threatened to impose austerity measures.

Due to the parliamentary vote that approved austerity measures in Greece, citizens aggressively protested against this government decision. Police had to intervene with tear gases to control the protesters. Labor unions organized the protest but other people joined such as teachers, public workers, and retired military officials.
