To support the workers and toilers (teachers, women and students) of Iran against the assaults and attacks of Iran's capitalist regime on their most basic rights, we, the signatories of this leaflet, announce in a loud and clear voice: 'Iranian workers are not alone!' We support the founding of the broad united action bloc of workers, students and women to combat the capitalist system in unity. We support the founding statement of the Co-operation Council of Labour Organisations and Activists with the objective of forming a broad united action bloc of workers. Our aim is to support Iranian workers and toilers who are insulted, threatened and killed by the repressive forces of the capitalist system. We call for the following points to be put into action:
*
Granting all workers' demands, including the right to strike, to set up
their own independent workers' organisations, the right to free speech
and assembly;
On
20 March 2007, depending on our resources and forces, we will raise the
issues affecting Iranian workers and toilers on an international scale.
In various forms like organising pickets outside the embassies and
consulates of the Islamic Republic of Iran (or other suitable places);
organise meetings for local activists; hold radio, television and news
agency interviews; collect funds to support workers' hardship funds;
and contact trade unions to get support and solidarity. We will aim to
gather the widest international support and solidarity for Iranian
workers.
