“I don’t understand this strike”On Wednesday February 14, the minister responsible for transport, Patrice Vergriet, announced that only one out of two TGVs will run on Friday, Saturday and Sunday due to a strike by controllers.
“I am very surprised by this strike as the management has proposed bonuses and salary increases that many of our fellow citizens would still envy”Minister explained. “Especially for the mobilized category, this is a salary increase that was 17% in two years”.
“The right to strike in France is sacred and must be respected, but we also have the right to travel”Patrice Vergriet continued. “I hope that everyone, management and the union, will quickly return to the negotiating table to end and discuss this strike.” “I have always thought that the SNCF is one of our great national institutions, and as such, it takes responsibility for those who keep it alive.”
In detail, service will be halved for the TGV Inoui and Ouigo lines as well as the day and night Intercités, SNCF announced. It will be “normal” for classic Oigo trains and “interrupted” for European connections such as Eurostar.
