FRANCIA Millones en huelga, Por millones en la calle

30 janvier 2023

El 19 de enero, dos millones de trabajadores salieron a manifestar y fueron a la huelga en Francia en respuesta a una convocatoria de todos los sindicatos contra el proyecto de reforma de las jubilaciones del gobierno de Macron. Esa misma tarde, el POID publicó un folleto para distribuir en fábricas y empresas.
El 19 de enero, el pueblo habló con una sola voz: ¡retirada del plan Macron-Borne contra las jubilaciones! 
En huelga por millones, en los sectores público y privado.  En manifestaciones por millones, en cientos de ciudades de todo el país. 
Los trabajadores y los jóvenes se han movilizado. El debate es claro: esta reforma es ilegítima y debe ser retirada. La democracia exige que se escuche a la mayoría. 
¿Y ahora qué?
Mientras manifestábamos por millones, Macron se atrevió a tomar la palabra para decir que su reforma es "justa" y que la mantendrá. 
Debemos hacerle retroceder. [...]

Follow-up Committee of the International Workers’ Committee Amplifying the International Campaign against War

25 janvier 2023

The Follow-Up Committee of the International Workers' Committee against War and Exploitation (IWC) met on 12 January. Participants included activists from Benin, Burkina Faso, China, Germany, France, Haiti, India, Mexico, Pakistan, the Philippines, Romania, Russia, South Africa/Azania and the United States.  In his introduction, Daniel Gluckstein made the following point: the World Conference against War and Exploitation (Paris29 and 30 October 2022) "called for the withdrawal of Russian troops, the withdrawal of US and NATO troops and an end to imperialist and neocolonial interventions. Workers have no interests in common with multinationals and war-mongering governments. But – especially in the major capitalist countries – they are facing the refusal of the leaders of the main workers' organisations and ‘left’ parties to oppose the war. What we called for was to build the unity of workers and peoples around the world, to impose peace”. He reiterated the success of the International Days against War on 9, 10 and 11 December 2022 and concluded "We have therefore implemented the decisions of the World Conference". [...]

FRANCE Millions on Strike, Millions in the Streets

25 janvier 2023

On January 19, the people expressed themselves with one voice: Withdraw the Macron-Borne Plan Against Our Pensions! Millions were on strike, in the public and private sectors. They demonstrated by the millions in hundreds of cities across the country. The working people and the youth have mobilized. The debate is clear: This reform is illegitimate and must be withdrawn. Democracy demands that the majority be heard. What happens now? While the workers were demonstrating by the millions, Macron dared to issue a statement affirming that his reform is “fair” and that he will maintain it. We must make him back down. This January 19 is already a historic date because of the scope of the strikes and demonstrations – and also because of the unity expressed in all the demonstration contingents in support of one demand: Now, immediately, withdraw the plan! This evening, the leaders of the trade union confederations are calling for “actions on January 23” and “a new day of strikes and interprofessional demonstrations on January 31” to demand the withdrawal of the Macron-Borne pension plan. Over the next few days, factory-floor assemblies, delegate assemblies, and union general assemblies, will be held. There is no doubt that the workers will be determined to organize and strengthen their unity around this common objective: the withdrawal of the Macron-Borne plan. Macron is isolated. We cannot force him to back down while continuing to discuss with him.

Withdrawal of Russian troops from Ukraine, withdrawal of NATO troops from Europe! Foreign troops out of the countries they occupy! Not one penny, not one weapon for this unjust war! Billions for wages, schools, hospitals, not for war! No support for war warmongering governments!”  These are the slogans, translated into all languages, that resounded throughout the world, including in countries where activists, braving war and repression, were determined to take part in these rallies.
