22国113个港口码头工人同步罢工一天:抗议港口被用于运输武器、要求改善待遇

欧洲多地——10月30日,欧洲及以外多国的码头工人举行罢工,抗议港口被用于武器运输,并要求改善待遇。组织方称,共有22个国家的113个港口参与了这次行动;路透社指出,这次行动的实际影响无法独立核实。
这次行动由意大利、法国、希腊、西班牙巴斯克地区、土耳其与摩洛哥等地的超过25个工会发起,覆盖希腊 Piraeus、西班牙 Valencia、法国 Le Havre 与 Algeciras、意大利 Genoa 等主要港口,以及摩洛哥的 Tangier Med 与印度的 Nhava Sheva。法国总工会港口与码头联合会号召约24个法国港口停工24小时,涉及约1.4万名港口工人、其中约7,500名码头工人。
罢工方还提出,海员在战争相关航行中伤亡不断上升,要求提高工资、改善工作条件,并让穿越战区的船只配备医生。工会方面引述的数字称,今年10月前21天波斯湾一带船只已遭28次袭击,黑海今年以来已有570次经确认的袭击、40名海员死亡。今年5月,35多个欧洲国家的码头工人工会曾发表《伊斯坦布尔宣言》,要求港口设施不得用于向战区运输武器。
Dockworkers Strike for a Day at 113 Ports in 22 Countries Over Arms Shipments and Working Conditions
Across Europe and beyond — Dockworkers in many countries struck on October 30 to protest the use of their ports for arms shipments and to demand better working conditions. Organizers said 113 ports in 22 countries took part; Reuters noted that the impact of the action could not be independently verified.
The action was backed by more than 25 unions, originally called in Italy, France, Greece, Spain's Basque Country, Turkey and Morocco, and covered major hubs including Piraeus in Greece, Valencia in Spain, Le Havre and Algeciras, Genoa in Italy, Morocco's Tangier Med and India's Nhava Sheva. In France, the CGT ports and docks federation called a 24-hour stoppage at about 24 ports covering some 14,000 port workers, including 7,500 dockers.
Strikers also cited the rising toll on seafarers in war-related shipping, calling for pay rises, better conditions and doctors on board vessels crossing war zones. Union figures cited 28 attacks on vessels in the Gulf in the first 21 days of October and 570 confirmed attacks in the Black Sea so far this year, leaving 40 seafarers dead. In May, dockworkers' unions from more than 35 European countries issued the Istanbul Declaration demanding that port facilities not be used to transport weapons destined for war zones.
