Description

This document is a formal appeal to request the release of a Catalan worker resident in Switzerland, arrested for participating in a labor protest. The worker, linked to trade union and political groups opposed to the Franco regime, represents the figure of the economic and political exile who, from abroad, continues the fight for social justice and freedom. The document reflects the repression suffered by activists, even outside Spain, and highlights international solidarity and the mobilization of support networks. It is part of the theme of politics and governance and international relations, and is a key source for understanding the transnational dimension of the Catalan labor movement and its connection with European democratic values.
