In the latest developments in the Haft Tapeh strike the workers and their supporters have clashed with the Iranian Military and police. The demonstration slogans were: Workers would die rather than accept representation by fake unions! Death to Saedi ! ( Saedi is the member of the Islamic Majles [parliament] for the city of Shoush where the factory is located) The fact that the Iranian Dictatorship are prepared to send in the military against the striking workers is both a sign of their desperation and their determination to crush independent unions at any cost. They fully realise that independent unions would organise strong opposition to the Iranian Dictatorships programme of privatisation. The above is based on reports from Iran translated by Yassamine Mather. For a film of an earlier protest by the same workers see the embedded video. For more information and background on the strike go to the link below. |
