  "account": "Taranto saw the end of the strike by former Ilva workers and subcontractors on Wednesday evening, as roadblocks were removed and the strike ended at 11 PM. The roadblocks were lifted, allowing the departure of fuel tankers due to dwindling fuel supplies in Puglia and Puglia airports. The workers' assembly held this morning on the state road to Bari decided this course of action. There were some dissenting voices from workers, saying \"we have nothing,\" but the unions insisted on unity for the upcoming deadlines and highlighted the results achieved so far. These include the call to Palazzo Chigi on October 27 at 5 PM and the agreement reached yesterday in the Region that commits all local institutions to the unions' demands, including decarbonization of the factory and special tools for workers, economic incentives for earlier departure, and early retirement pensions for asbestos and pollutant exposure. Union leader Luigi Bennardi emphasized the need to build their proposal for the October 27 meeting with Palazzo Chigi and arrive with strength, solidarity, unity, and presence. Delegate unionist also stressed the importance of unity, as division would be a disadvantage. Francesco Brigati of Fiom Cgil noted that they achieved the Palazzo Chigi call with determination but it is not a solution, there are still steps like the Cassation Court on October 20, Palazzo Chigi meeting on October 27, and the AdI offer deposit by November 9. The result of yesterday was the fruit of all workers' sacrifice, and it should not be minimized. Biagio Prisciano of Fim Cisl highlighted the need for shared platform visibility by all political forces in the Region, which was not easily achieved. The government used to say they couldn't do things because the Region or the Taranto Municipality/Province didn't want it, but now the government has no more alibis. The government and all political levels are now on their terms, and they will be in Rome with all workers on October 27. They need to arrive well-prepared for that date, and if the answers aren't adequate, they will resume mobilization.",
