The statement charged that the puppet authorities hurled police and hooligans into the scene of the strike of unionists of Ssangyong Motor Co., which was launched in demand of the guarantee of the right to existence, to indiscriminately suppress the workers that day.

Considering the violent crackdown upon the trade union of the Ssangyong Motor Co. as a declaration of a war against all the workers and other people, the confederation will launch an all-out struggle to force the fascist regime to step down, the statement said.
