Message of solidarity to the employees of Scaw Metals

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!
To the struggling automobile workers in Turkey, Metalworkers' Union Birleşik Metal-Iş (German Coordination Group of the IAWC)
