Transport Guilds Rule Out Nov. 14 Strike as Gen Z March Proceeds in Lima

Organizers cite the October killing of Eduardo Ruiz Sanz alongside intensifying public‑safety fears as the drivers of the call to protest.

Overview

  • Generation Z has called a national demonstration for Friday with demands that include justice for Eduardo Ruiz Sanz and limits on police repression.
  • Asotrani says it will join the mobilization while keeping operations running, citing extortion and killings that have targeted transport workers.
  • The Confederación Internacional del Transporte will not participate, calling the action political and restating its contingency of “one death, one strike.”
  • Transport services are expected to operate on Friday despite earlier rumors of a sector‑wide stoppage, according to statements from the guilds.
  • Organizers set the meeting point at Plaza 2 de Mayo at 5:30 p.m. with a route toward Congress, and the Education Ministry has not ordered class suspensions.
