Hello to all the people here!! Have you heard what's happening in Ukraine? My relatives called me from Krivoy Rog (this is a city near Dnepropetrovsk) and said that there is a mini-war there! There is a very large factory Arcelor Mital! My cousin works at this factory. He's a machinist! And now all the machinists from this plant went on strike. They argue that locomotives are very old and they can even get into an accident on them. And also they want to increase their earnings! You'll be shocked when you find out how much they get now. That's 297 dollars! How can you feed your family for such money?((((

I'll give you an example about the cost of products in Krivoy Rog so that you understand the situation. For example, milk is worth one dollar, Meat costs $ 7, apples cost $ 1.5 ..... But the worst thing is that he pays $ 125 for an apartment ..... Would you be able to live on that kind of money?
The plant incurred losses by millions (and this is only for three days). SO.......Do we need such strikes? Or is this a hopeless situation for Ukraine? Maybe some people here can advise me something? As far as I know, in many countries people are fighting for their rights and they are achieving what they demanded !!
Maybe you saw something on the news ??
30 minutes ago, my cousin called me and said that many people in black masks had come to the factory. Maybe this is a kind of police? I dont know..
I really worryyyyyyyyyyyyy
In advance, I want to say thank you very much for any of your advice!
With respect and hope
Oksana
