From the Justice for Iranian workers website, mobilising for the world day of solidarity with Iranian workers on June 26th (at http://www.justiceforiranianworkers.org/?p=758 ):
Message from the port workers’ union in Iraq
"After receiving your Circular, we have immediately contacted all trade union officials for an urgent meeting and decided to gather on 26 June at the headquarter of the union and demonstrate to denounce the acts of the Iranian government against trade unionists and workers. We will update you with the planned activities as soon as possible."
That Iraqi unions, themselves long in need of solidarity and support from across the world, should now take action in support of workers facing the repression of the regime in Iran is an important step forward. It shows that the Iraqi workers' movement is beginning to enjoy the space to act beyond the most immediate concerns of its members and its own survival.
