Carlos Menen molesto por el paro de los ferrocarriles 1991

Buenos Aires: Statements by President Carlos Menem from the Casa Rosada, where he expresses: "Clearly, this railway strike has nothing to do with what was discussed in an assembly. For example, the strikers were demanding the withdrawal of ships from the Persian Gulf. What does this have to do with the activities of this sector of the community? This morning I heard a leader talking about how it was a peaceful strike and that's why they were setting up camp in Plaza de Mayo proposing and carrying out a hunger strike. Peaceful on one hand, but there's the burning of five train cars on one of the railway lines, cars that belong to the people, property that belongs to the people through the State. I don't see where the lack of violence is in these measures of force. And the constitution is clear: there is the right to work, there is the right to strike, there is the right to stop work within the law, but those who are striking must also understand that there is the right of those who do not want to strike to fulfill the tasks arising from their contract." "Work." Menem is accompanied in the room by Undersecretary Juan Schiaretti and Minister of Economy Domingo Cavallo. Insert: Railway workers on hunger strike in Plaza de Mayo.
