DAMASCUS, (ST)- Chairman of the General Federation of Trade Unions (GFTU) Jamal al-Qaderi has called on the International Labour Organization (ILO) to intensify its missions to Syria to be briefed on the crimes being committed by the terrorist organizations against the Syrian workers.
“The terrorists have been targeting factories, companies and other work and production places, kidnapping and killing workers and destroying production facilities,” Al-Qaderi said, urging the ILO to condemn the Wahhabi mentality-based takfiri terrorism hitting Syria.
In a speech last night at the 105th International Labour Conference currently being held in Geneva, the GFTU’s Chairman urged the ILO to send missions to Syria as to observe the violations committed by Israel against the Syrian workers in the occupied Syrian Golan.
He reiterated the need to condemn all the countries which support and finance terrorism.
Al-Qaderi called for supporting Syria in the confrontation of the takfiri terrorism which has become a serious threat to the entire humanity.
He urged the international community to lift the unjust siege and economic sanctions imposed on the Syrian people, sanctions that go in harmony with the criminal acts of the terrorist organizations which keep hitting the infrastructure of the Syrian economy, thereby worsening the suffering of the Syrian people in general and workers in particular.
On his part, head of the conference called for mobilizing efforts as to support Syria and ease the suffering caused by terrorism against the Syrians.
