Unions Pressure Belgian Government to Allow Arms Export to Libya
This is rather ironic that a labor union would be used to pressure a government to give a company license to export arms.
The Belgium government issued a license to Fabrique Nationale so that it can fulfill a €11.5 million purchase contract of weapons to Libya. The contract means securing 5 years worth of employment in the Belgian region of Herstal, in the Walloon region. Further checking of the company, it not only owns the Browning and Winchester trademarks but it is entirely owned by the government of the Walloon Region in Belgium.
