At its meeting yesterday, the board of Efling Union approved a statement of solidarity in support of its colleagues in the Faroe Islands who have been on strike since May 11.

Today, the statement was sent to the Føroya labor union, the Havnar labor union, the Klaksvík women’s labor union, and the Klaksvík labor union.
