🎥 President of UNI Europa Graphical & Packaging Tony Berggren speaks out in solidarity with workers in the U.S.🎥
✊This comes after an international delegation investigating union busting was blocked from entering Swedish company Elanders Logistics' warehouse in New Jersey despite signing a global agreement with UNI to uphold workers' rights and allow access. 🛑
