   More than 50 percent of Greeks are opposed to continuing to provide

   logistical support for NATO in Greece for its bombing campaign

   against Yugoslavia, a poll published in Monday's Ta Nea showed. The

   poll, by V.PRC, showed that 57 percent of respondents said Greece

   should not provide any support to NATO operations. Twenty-six percent

   said it should continue to provide support. NATO has been using the

   airport and port of Greece's northern city of Thessaloniki to move

   supplies and troops into neighbouring FYROM. Asked whether Greece

   should leave the Alliance, 53 percent of respondents said no and 25.7

   percent said it should.
