Politiet brukte tåregass mot demonstranter i Mexico – ti dager før VM

Demonstrerende lærere brøt gjennom avsperringene ved en VM-fansone i Mexico by og ble møtt med tåregass.
Kort tid før VM-starten i den mexicanske hovedstaden har det oppstått sammenstøt mellom lærere og lokalt politi, rapporterer nyhetsbyrået AFP.
Mandag brukte politiet tåregass mot de demonstrerende lærerne for å nekte dem å komme seg fram til det historiske Zocalo-torget. Der jobbes det med å sette i stand en supportersone med en gigantisk storskjerm til fotball-VM, der Mexico er et av tre vertsland.
Sammenstøtet begynte da lærerne, som krever høyere lønn og bedre pensjonsvilkår, brøt gjennom en av avsperringene som er satt opp ved inngangen til torget, som ligger like ved Mexicos regjeringsbygg.
– Dette arrangementet må avlyses. Vår sak er langt viktigere enn litt underholdning og hygge, sier fagforeningsleder Filiberto Frausto til AFP.
Minst to personer ble skadet i mandagens sammenstøt med politiet. Demonstrantene brukte fyrverkeri mot politiet som svar på tåregassen.
Lærerne har tidligere slått leir på Zocalo-torget for å legge press på regjeringen, men den seneste tiden har området vært massivt bevoktet som følge av forberedelsene til VM. (NTB)
