Solidarity with the South Korean trade union movement

  • 5 December 2024

UNISON condemns the attempt to impose martial law, including banning the right to strike, on 3 December in South Korea by the President Yoon Suk Yeol.

Forty-four years after formal democracy began in the country, it was a desperate, anti-democratic act designed to extend the political life of the president.

UNISON congratulates the South Korean trade union movement, including the Korean Public and Transport Union (KPTU) for its courageous, swift and successful mobilisation in defence of democracy.

We stand firmly with the people and trade unions of South Korea and are ready to extend our solidarity whenever needed.

The article Solidarity with the South Korean trade union movement first appeared on the UNISON National site.
