Oil workers assure that the strike will not cause a shortage of gasoline and gas.
The general coordinator of the Unified Federation of Oil Workers, José Maria Rangel, stated that the 72-hour strike by the category will not affect the fuel supply in the country; he drew a parallel with the supply crisis caused by the truckers' strike, whose effects tend to normalize in the coming days.
Current Brazil Network - The general coordinator of the Unified Federation of Oil Workers (FUP), José Maria Rangel, stated that the 72-hour strike by the category, which began this Wednesday (30), will not affect the fuel supply in the country. He drew a parallel with the supply crisis caused by the truckers' strike, whose effects tend to normalize in the coming days.
"It is not true that the strike could cause shortages because, during the truckers' strike, Petrobras continued producing and the tanks are full. We conducted the process in such a way as to ensure that there is no shortage of fuel to meet the needs of the population," he told Rádio Brasil Atual.
The FUP (Unified Federation of Oil Workers) called for a national strike against the fuel and cooking gas pricing policy, against the privatization of Petrobras, and for the immediate resignation of the state-owned company's president, Pedro Parente. The first actions began in the morning at various refineries, terminals, and platforms in the Campos Basin, in Rio de Janeiro.
