Al-Shaab newspaper reported that the General University of Transport of the Tunisian General Labor Union sent a letter to the Minister of Transport, confirming that this action is inconsistent with the agreement of the company for the employees delegated directly by it, and also informed the minister that the company is accustomed to those practices, through which it seeks to blackmail the Tunisian state and the Office of Civil Aviation and Airports in order to achieve concessions that it has always enjoyed without providing in return a positive return in the country.
