It Has Not Yet Been Defined by the Union Whether the Strike Will Interrupt Operational Activities in the Campos or Santos Basin
The coordinator of the Unique Federation of Petroleum Workers (FUP), José Maria Rangel, called yesterday (Thursday-5), the petroleum category for assemblies on Friday, 06, in the morning, to deliberate on the possibility of a national strike against the political imprisonment of former president Lula. “The gravity of the moment demands tough decisions. Therefore, we are advising all oil workers and union leaders to be at the units tomorrow morning holding assemblies to deliberate on a possible strike, should the imprisonment of former president Lula occur,” says the FUP coordinator.
“We cannot accept that the best president in the history of this country, the president who took Petrobrás to a level never seen before in the history of this company, discovering the pre-salt, reactivating the shipbuilding industry, generating jobs, income, and technology for the country, be imprisoned based on conjectures,” emphasizes José Maria Rangel, advising workers who are off duty to seek the nearest Petrobrás System units and join the assemblies.
