ETUC supports trade union movement in Zimbabwe

The European Trade Union Confederation (ETUC) today expressed its support for the joint statement of the Zimbabwe Congress of Trade Unions (ZCTU) and the Congress of South African Trade Unions (COSATU) on the elections in Zimbabwe.

 

ETUC General Secretary John Monks said: “The people of Zimbabwe have spoken, and their voice must be heard. Delays in publishing the results of the election and apparent pressures being brought to bear by the authorities on members of the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission and other acts of intimidation give rise to fears that the Presidential election is being stolen. We express once more our solidarity with the trade union Movement in Zimbabwe”.
