Francisco Aranda, president of the Business Organization of Logistics and Transport (UNO), has explained that the monitoring of the general strike in the sector is being "uneven," but with an impact "minimal and very localized," concentrated above all in Barcelona and in the ports of Valencia and Algeciras.
Aranda has detailed that in Barcelona there have been "some specific incidents," while in the ports of Valencia and Algeciras the protest by dockworkers has reached the point of stopping operations at container terminals.
In contrast, the head of the employers' association has emphasized that in Madrid the follow-through is being "practically nonexistent" and that operations are being maintained "with absolute normality," a situation which, as he has indicated, is replicated across most of Spanish territory.
According to his assessment, "no significant disruptions in the supply chain" are being recorded, and he has reiterated that the effects of the call on logistics and transport activity are very limited.
"Paralyzing companies does not build homes," the president of UNO has stressed, who also acknowledged the "excellent work" of the State Forces and Security Corps during the strike day.
