Mr. Uslu attended the Symposium on "Press and Information Power is Over the Weapon Power" organized by the International Confederation of Arab Trade Unions (ICATU) held in Baghdad, Iraq and delivered his speech.
Uslu, who addressed the leading union representatives of the Arab world, said, "We must fight in unity as Memur-Sen, ICATU, GFIW and all labour movements, with the terror that Zionism feeds and transforms our territory into a circle of fire."
Indicating that the media has become a tool used to terrorize the region, Uslu said, "The dominant language of the media is determined by the imperialists. We must acknowledge the fact that we immediately evaluate the events that are taking place in front of us according to the language of the media. This attitude is going to a very different place.
Underlining that the Middle East and Islamic geography are used as a laboratory, Uslu said, "Our region was used as a kind of laboratory, violence lab. But this derives from our weakness and absence of solidarity soul. Why does the imperialist system easily make such a plan with our societies?”
Uslu, referring to the call of the Memur-Sen for ‘human diplomacy’ "Imperialism creates the domain of power over conflicts. We, as MEMUR-SEN, have produced the concept of human diplomacy to overthrow imperialism and overcome the cycle of violence. It's a message to all the good people of the world. Labour movements have very large functions at this point. There is surely no nation, religion and sect of tears and sweats. Therefore, imperialism can only be destroyed by solidarity.”
Uslu, who addressed the leading union representatives of the Arab world, also said, "We must fight in unity as Memur-Sen, ICATU, GFIW and all labour movements, with the terror that Zionism feeds and transforms our territory into a circle of fire."
Following the speech, Uslu gave a plaquet to the Vice President of Iraq, Nuri al-Maliki, the secretary-general of ICATU Ghassan Ghosn, the president of GFIW Sattar Dunops Barrak, the president of FAJ Müeyyed el-Lami.
