On May 22, our team of @RosaluxEuropa, joined thousands of people demonstrating in Brussels to defend the fundamental right to strike and support the workers of #Delhaize

Our colleague @LouSchmidtPhoto captured the demonstration with the camera📸

✨Very pleased to have had a delegation of the Finnish Left Alliance #vasemmistoliitto visit our office #RLSBrussels to discuss left strategies, the fight against the far-right, just transition and more!

@OezlemADemirel: Je mehr die Erdogan-Reg. an Zustimmung verliert, umso mehr setzt sie auf die Karte der Repression, gegen Andersdenkende, -lebende. Doch diese lassen sich nicht einschüchtern, finden zusammen und stehen ein für die Demokratie. @YesillerSol @Left_EU @dieLinke

[Rosalux-Europa @RosaluxEuropa]

Today we are showing at @RosaluxEuropa the documentary “PRISON OR EXILE – DEPOSED MAYORS IN EXILE”, which addresses the ongoing repression against leftist pro-Kurdish #HDP and their elected politicians in Turkey.

Bye Bye, Delhi! We had a great time in India full of inspiring and insightful discussions with various stakeholders. A big thank you to @RLSSouthAsia! It was a pleasure to meet you all! See you soon! @HelmutScholzMEP @rosaluxglobal @ARuezgar @LouSchmidtPhoto #FTA #Trade #India

[Rosalux-Europa @RosaluxEuropa]

We are pleased to have had the opportunity to talk to @cpimspeak about the #FTA and the socio-economic situation in #India during our trip. The deal will seriously affect the political-economic landscape to the detriment of workers—not for the better.

[Arif R. @ARuezgar]

In a conversation with scientists in #NewDelhi, it becomes clear that the regulations for fiscal- and economic policy, but also government procurement policy, are beeing reshaped to the advantage of big companies. @RosaluxEuropa @HelmutScholzMEP #FTA #EuIndiaFTA @LouSchmidtPhoto

[Rosalux-Europa @RosaluxEuropa]

In a roundtable with representatives of associations, #tradeunions and #NGOs, it becomes clear once again that many millions of people will have to fear for their livelihoods as a result of the EU-India #FTA agreement. @HelmutScholzMEP @Left_EU @ARuezgar @RLSSouthAsia #India

[Rosalux-Europa @RosaluxEuropa]

Chief Operating Officer @Jayen_Mehta from dairy cooperative society @Amul_Coop states that “FTA and dairy production in #India don’t go together. If the #FTA is done, the livelihoods of 100 million families are at risk”. #EUIndiaFTA #FTA #India #Trade

[Rosalux-Europa @RosaluxEuropa]

Parminder Jeet Singh, executive director at @itforchange emphasizes: “Data flow with data right should assure developing countries that their concerns, especially economic and sovereignty-related, are being taken on board”. This point should be considered in all trade deals. #FTA

[Rosalux-Europa @RosaluxEuropa]

The EU and the government of #India want to push through the #FTA as quickly as possible. Today we had an exchange with our great colleagues from Delhi about the consequences on society and the environment. @HelmutScholzMEP @RLSSouthAsia @rosaluxglobal @ARuezgar @LouSchmidtPhoto
