Reunification, workers’ demands and Palestine at the PEO May Day event

A bicommunal event organized by the PEO and T/C trade union organizations for Labor Day in Nicosia featured messages in favor of the reunification of Cyprus and workers’ demands, as well as support for Palestine. Participants gathered at Eleftheria Square before marching towards the buffer zone stadium with Turkish Cypriot trade unions. The PEO Secretary-General emphasized the joint effort of Greek and Turkish Cypriot workers to reject division and fight for improved working conditions and wages. The PEO criticized employers for resisting institutional measures to enforce labor agreements and called on the government to take action.
