With a large participation, although smaller than the strike in February, given the “absence” of ADEDY, the strike rally and march took place in Ioannina, with the basic demand for wage increases, the reinstatement of Collective Labor Agreements, but also effective measures to address accuracy.
The gathering and march, after the announcement of the strike by the GSEE, was organized by the Labor Center of Ioannina, with the participation of many unions of workers in the private sector, such as the Union of Private Employees, the Union of Builders, etc. but also several associations of the public sector, which took decisions to announce work stoppages, such as the Association of Local Government Employees. Along with them are the blocks of students and collectives.
The march started a little after 11 in the morning, after the speeches by the member of the Board of Directors of the Builders’ Union Vassilis Dakaletsis and the member of the administration of EKI Dimitris Rosilovalis, in the presence of the president of EKI, MP of Ioannina of the KKE Nikos Exarchos.
For a strike that comes as a continuation of the previous mobilizations, with the aim of taking effective measures to protect the people’s income and improve working conditions, with the signature of Branch and Operational SSEs, the secretary of the EKI Thanasis Kontaxis spoke, while the position of the KKE on the side of workers, farmers and ordinary households expressed the KKE MEP candidate Tasos Tokas, speaking of a “barbaric policy”, which emanates from the EU and is implemented by the government and bourgeois parties.
