: AFL-CIO NOW BLOGAFL-CIO: Stop Violence Against Iran Demonstrators
By James Parks
The global union movement is demanding that Iran stop its violent and deadly repression of the peaceful demonstrations following the contested re-election of President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.
In a statement today, AFL-CIO President John Sweeney said Iranian authorities should
cease and desist their violent repression of these peaceful demonstrations, as well as fully prosecute…all of those responsible for the tragic and reprehensible deaths and injuries.
Sweeney also condemned the continued violations of workers’ rights in Iran, including the recent arrest of four trade unionists and a journalist for participating in May Day rallies in Tehran. He announced that the AFL-CIO supports a global Day of Action: Justice for Iranian Workers on June 26. Workers around the world will demand the immediate release of all imprisoned Iranian trade unionists and the recognition of all authentic and independent workers’ organizations in Iran.
