Approximately 500 workers who descended underground with the start of the morning shift on Wednesday, November 20, continue their protests against the privatization of the Çayırhan Thermal Power Plant and the Çayırhan Mine in the Nallıhan district of Ankara, while workers above ground decided to march to Ankara on the 9th day of their protests in support of them.
Workers chanting the slogan "Ankara, hear our voice, these are the footsteps of the workers coming" have started a march from the Çayırhan Thermal Power Plant to Ankara. Mine Workers' Union General President Nurettin Akçul and TES-İŞ General President İrfan Kabaloğlu made a statement regarding the decision they made.
"THEY INFORMED US THAT THE PRIVATIZATION WILL NOT BE CANCELLED"
Mine Workers' Union General President Nurettin Akçul stated the following in his announcement:
"As the TÜRKİYE MADEN-İŞ and TES-İŞ Unions, on the 9th day of our rightful struggle against the decision to privatize the Çayırhan Thermal Power Plant and mining areas and the sale of assets, we have decided to march to the Ministry of Treasury and Finance in Ankara together with our energy workers and miners. While our 500 miners underground have been resolutely continuing their protests since Wednesday, November 20, we are also marching to Ankara to make our voices heard against the sale of assets.
As you know, during our meeting two days ago with our Energy Minister Mr. Alparslan Bayraktar and ministry officials, we detailed why we oppose this privatization and conveyed the demands of our members and the local community. Yesterday, ministry officials called us to inform us that they have taken our demands into account and that some adjustments will be made in the specifications accordingly, but they conveyed that the privatization will not be cancelled. Unfortunately, the changes that our Ministry of Energy will make do not guarantee the future of our workers without cancelling the sale of assets. Therefore, we are going to the Ministry of Finance and Treasury in Ankara together with our workers who have been fighting for their rights under extremely difficult conditions, both underground and above ground, against this privatization where the necessary guarantees are not provided to our workers and the sale of assets is not cancelled.
"THE DECISION ON ASSET SALE AND PRIVATIZATION MUST BE REVERSED URGENTLY"
The decision on asset sale and privatization, taken disregarding us and the public interest, must be urgently reversed. This is a struggle for rights; we will not surrender the worker's bread, labor, and sweat to anyone. For the benefit of our country, for our workers and the local community, we will continue this rightful struggle."
