Today, on 5th of May working class of Greece is going on a general strike against EU, IMF and Greek
Government’s anti-labour policies.
Greek Government’s IMF and EU approved program, freezes the public sector workers pay rise and
pensions, also cuts 13th and 14 th month payments of public sector workers. It also cuts social
spending such as Social Security. So bosses again wants us, workers to pay for their crisis.
Like their brothers and sisters around the world, Greek working class is too telling that they wont pay
for the crisis. We as working class of Turkey know the bitter receipts of IMF better than anyone thats
why we understand Greek working classes’ struggle better than everyone. We support Greek workers
general strike. We will also go to a general strike on 26th of May with similar problems and similar
demands of Greek workers. We are always with them on their struggles and we know that they will
always be with us in our struggles.
