Lebanon petrol stations suspend strike
Saturday 30/November/2019 - 02:28 PM
Lebanon’s petrol stations syndicate chief announced
on Friday night that the union will suspend its strike starting tonight, state
news agency (NNA) quoted Sami al-Brax as saying.
Lebanese daily Al-Nahar cited al-Brax saying the
union was suspending its strike to hold talks with authorities and added the
syndicate would have a meeting on Monday.
The union had called for an open-ended strike
starting Thursday because of losses incurred from having to buy dollars on a
parallel market, the main source of hard currency during the country’s economic
crisis.
