According to a joint press release, these three organizations warn the government whose policy “removes the gains of the working class and its right to a decent standard of living”holding the Executive responsible for “harm to social stability”.
Thus, these unions are protesting once morest the “regression of the living conditions of the poor classes of society and the continuous increases in the prices of hydrocarbons and consumer products”notably the prices of food products, including flour, sugar and vegetable oils.
For the three unions, the government’s measures “harm the food security of Moroccans”.
