THE WFTU DENOUNCES THE FASCISTS AND SUPPORTS THE GENERAL STRIKE OF OCTOBER THE 3rd

Friends of the WFTU:

Athens, 25/09/2017
10-Day Action Of Pensioners Across Greece
Against The Anti-Pensioners, Anti-Popular Policies and The New Deadly Measures Of The SYRIZA-ANEL Government.

The World Federation of Trade Unions (WFTU), which brings together almost 100 million workers affiliated to the trade unions of the five continents, wishes to denounce imperialism as the main responsible for the attacks in the world such as today in Barcelona (Spain).

Comrades.
As a result of the many unitary struggles that have been repeated for almost a year in nearly 20 major cities throughout the Spanish state, parliamentary groups wanting to appear as an alternative to the parties that have governed in Spain (I mean PP and the PSOE) have unitarily submitted a proposal for a new law (attached).
This proposal is ONLY ONE PART of what we would do from class syndicalism, but collects (creating contradictions in the bourgeois parties) part of the demands raised in the demonstrations and concentrations of PYCs throughout the Spanish state.
