Huge crowds in Costa Rica protest U.S. pact – CAFTA
Tagged: Costa Rica, protest, San JosePosted on: October 1st, 2007“More than 100,000 Costa Ricans, some dressed as skeletons, protested a U.S. trade pact on Sunday they say will flood their country with cheap farm goods and cause job losses.
Chanting “No to the free-trade pact!” and “Costa Rica is not for sale!” demonstrators filled one of San Jose’s main boulevards to show their opposition against the Central American Free Trade Agreement with the United States.
“The trade deal is putting at risk our workers’ rights. We need an accord with the United States, but not this way,” said Juan Chacon, a 50-year-old computer technician.”
