None

Greece's Statistical Authority says unemployment in the debt-ridden country has shot up to a new five-year high of 12.1 percent in February.

 

That is up from 11.3 percent in January and 9.1 percent in February 2009. A total 605,277 people were unemployed in February 2010, some 38,000 more than in January, the Statistical Authority said in a statement Thursday. (AP)
