The federation was formed by members of the Union Of The Unemployed Of Iraq , which is connected to the Worker Communist Party Of Iraq as a Left-wing alternative to the Iraqi Federation Of Trade Unions . The latter is currently the only legally recognized union federation in Iraq; it is closely connected to the Iraqi Communist Party , an organization which opposed the US invasion of Iraq in 2003 but decided to work with the new political institutions established after the occupation. The FWCUI opposes both the U.S. -led Occupation Of Iraq and the Islamist elements of the Iraqi Insurgency , and it is often repressed by both the foreign and Islamist forces. Many Anti-war movements around the world have provided venues for FWCUI speaker tours. A third labor formation known as the Federation Of Oil Unions In Iraq also exists. The FWCUI's members have led a number of Strike s, and are particularly strong around the Basra region. EXTERNAL LINKS |
