Message of solidarity to the 130,000 metal workers in the collective bargaining struggle in Turkey
Dear colleagues, you have been courageously fighting for your legitimate tariff demands for over 2 weeks. In many cities you stressed your demands with demonstrations and warning strikes to the public. The employers' association MESS has threatened you with lockout in case of a strike. This is a provocation that must not be accepted. For 5 February you are preparing strikes in many factories up to a general strike.
International solidarity is assured - we support you in your just struggle for more pay!
