The inter-union called Tuesday March 28 for an 11th day of “strike and demonstrations” Thursday April 6. “The lack of response from the executive leads to a situation of tension” launched the unions. The SNCF unions (CGT-Cheminots, Unsa-Ferroviaire, SUD-Rail and CFDT-Cheminots), who have been on renewable strike since March 7, will they propose to SNCF agents to amplify the mobilization April 6? The answer is currently pending.
