The World Federation of Trade Unions representing 105 million workers in every corner of the world stands on the side of the workers of Airbus who are struggling against the decision of Airbus to dismiss 15.000 workers until 2021.
Thousands of workers at the Airbus plant in Toulouse, southern France, went on strike on July 8th, protesting against the massive dismissals planned in France, Spain and elsewhere. At the same time Airbus will be supported by a government program with least 15 billion euro, in order to “be assisted” in dealing with the “difficulties” that grew for the industry during the pandemic.
The WFTU and the international class-oriented trade union movement denounce the unacceptable decision of Airbus and express their internationalist and class solidarity with its workers in every country.
