The truckers remain determined to continue with the mobilization, to which other organizations in the sector join, while the regional employers’ association Froet assures that the offer made by the Government of Spain “is absolutely insufficient”
The Government Delegation in the Region has denied the National Platform in Defense of the Transport Sector, convener of the truckers’ strike that has been taking place throughout the country for ten days, the request for authorization that it registered for the development of new caravans of protest in Murcia with tractor units and trucks. However, this Tuesday morning dozens of drivers with their vehicles are prepared in the area of Nueva Condomina, as in previous days, with the intention of starting their slow march towards the city center to denounce the situation they are suffering.
From the body of the State Administration they inform LA TRUTH that after having received the petition this Monday, the celebration of the truck demonstration has been rejected because the reports of the Civil Guard and the National Police “are unfavorable” because “they do not it is possible to guarantee road safety”. Therefore, both the organizers of the demonstration and the participants in the protest risk heavy fines. Of course, until now there had been no sanctions for the marches carried out since last week.
The small Murcian transporters remain firm for now in continuing with the indefinite strike that the national platform maintains until the Government does not receive them and the agreements that they demand for an effective reduction in the price of fuel and the improvement of conditions are signed. of the sector. In addition, other organizations such as the National Federation of Transport Associations (Fenadismer), and other organizations have announced that they will join the strike because they consider the latest proposal presented by the Government to allocate 500 million euros to directly discount the extra cost insufficient. .
Within the regional sphere, the general secretary of the Regional Federation of Transport Organizations and Companies (Froet), Manuel Pérezcarro, which integrates the majority of merchants and professionals, has indicated that the offer of the central Executive “is absolutely insufficient”, with solutions that “arrive late”. In fact, he considers that the “management of the Government in this crisis is not being the most appropriate.” And it is one thing to “say that they are going to provide 500 million euros”, but “the truth is that we do not know how that translates, how much each truck is going to touch, depending on the tonnage”.
“The solutions we expected have not arrived, so people in this situation do not trust the management, so we understand the desperation of our people, who wanted solutions,” adds Pérezcarro. For this reason, he describes the negotiations carried out as a “failure”.
