danie, setting trying change users or in other words "machine based". therefore requires administrative privileges.
you cannot overcome via group poicy. details described here:

so maybe change once on machines used greek colleagues logging in administrator.

some other (user related) regional options can configured via gpp:
you can create "regional options item and specify the desired options:

of course need prerequisites (at least 1 vista or winows 2008 management , gpp cse on each target machine).
if new gpp, these links it:
