Turkish workers arrested under Anti Terrorism Laws

In a worrying development, over 100 trade unionists in Turkey were arrested under that country's anti terror laws. This is not the first time that unionists in Turkey have been targeted this way, nor is Turkey the only country that has used anti terrorism laws against workers and trade unionists. This once again shows how these laws can be used against us, and to hinder ability to organise. It is up to our organisations to campaign for the release of all the arrested comrades and campaigning against these repressive laws.
