Nearly 20,000 people take to the streets across the Balearic Islands on Wednesday, 11 November, as a general strike brings marches to several cities. The Spanish government’s delegation in the islands says the demonstrations pass without serious incidents.
Government delegate Pere Joan Pons praises the unions that called the protests, saying they helped people exercise both the right to work and the right to strike. He also praises the peaceful marches and thanks the state security forces deployed to protect public safety throughout the day.
