a nation wide strike. teachers have walked off the job disrupting the public sector and transport system. employees are demanding higher pay to help offset rising prices. natasha, but there is among the protest this and joins is life. so natasha primarily affecting the public sector's. this one, how's it all shaping up? as we've seen, thousands of people walk across paris is part of this photos demanding higher pay better working conditions. people say why indeed about the rising cost of living and inflation. but my point me tell you about how i should bring in my guest act. so pearson, nikki, is a trained driver, and a representative of the cdc union here, just outside of our powers axle. thank you for joining us for our workers. i'm. it's not the 1st transport strike we seen by, by rail workers. what do they want? well, this is not only a strike of we were workers because it's a strike that has been called in several different across all industries and public administrations. and the strike that you have organized today,
5:03 pm
or depends on relies on 2 factors that the 1st one is that we are all struggling with the rising cost of living and the wages that are not following up and keeping pace with inflation. despite the fact that profits a huge profits are being made at the back of our work and we are just claiming our fair share of the wealth we collectively produce. so that's where we understood that that's where we are struck today in the 2nd aspect, which is at least as important as the 1st thing i mention is that our comrades in the refineries we have been on strike for almost one months now, which i've left to massive, old shortages in the been in the petro stations across the country are struggling and fighting for higher wages. and the government has issued a back to work order for a few select handful handpicked workers. and i force them to go back to work or setting them with fines or imprisonment. and as such, this is as an attack on a right to strike and assert. we have reacted not only as a trade union, but as and i carefully have picked my words as a working class and decided to strike in solidarity and to denounce the fact that
5:04 pm
the right to strike has been attacked with data. that is why we are all walking out together also in solidarity, whether comrade and refineries were leading a exemplary struggle and the struggles that we should all be leading if we want to win or are legitimate demands. those are funny workers have been on strike for nearly a month now though, as you say, the government ordering some of those workers to go back to work really creating a lot of anger. i saw today, for example, those and opinion po, showing that here some t shirts of people in france. now feel that that strike has to finish because they're fed up the cold fill up that caused warranty, say to that. well, the thing that most striking workers would like this back to finish as well. but it's interesting when you see the poles is because of course, people are seeing the practical consequences on a daily lives. and as such, of course, are suffering from it. but at the same time, if you ask them, do you think that the wages should be increased given the huge amount of profits and inflation that is being imposed on us workers? do you find it legitimate to demand high wages?
5:05 pm
and in those polls it will show normal, namely yes. so what we are telling to everybody who has trouble filling the tanks is that the question should you should ask yourself is not, will you get enough petrol to go to work? but how will you get to work in order to organize your fellow workers to organize a strike in your workplace? because if we all strike together, we would be able to win altogether. right, axel, his back evey, mark jackson person, i should say. thank you very much. indeed for joining us. train driver here on the striker part of the c g to union. you heard axel say that people right deter mcgee free fed up and frustrated really feeling for they are struggling with inflation. they're not being heard by the government, they're not being heard by their bosses and the companies. they work for patching and your parents. and natasha, thanks very much. more air strikes on ukraine's capital of killed at least 2 people. he created. officials say 3 missiles here to power facility in keep rushman striking critical infrastructure across the country. president fordham is zalinski,

5:07 pm
of that investigation. he said it, you know, they also even, you know, try to choreograph the results and the findings to soothe the their own narrative and to lay the blame or russia. but he said, that's absurd because russia has its own intelligence information about this. and they indicate quite the opposite thing that russia has been, it arches, interests have been damaged. and, you know, a logic there indicates that, you know, someone else has been behind this act of sabotage, which she and she is also described as an act of terrorism against its own interests. so as days go by and as more, more facts that are revealed about this, the russians get more and more frustrated or at the fact that they are still are denied access to this investigation and being there to see for their own eyes and, and, and make it make their own decision about this and is basically, you know, if they're hinting that whatever results the europeans announce about this,
