The nationwide strike in the bauxite kingdom Guinea, which had brought the nation and its mining sector to a standstill since February 26, 2024, has been suspended by the country's trade unions, according to a statement released on February 28.
The Guinean Trade Union Movement, representing various workers' unions, announced the suspension in light of the release of Sekou Jamal Pendessa, a detained union leader and a crucial demand of the unions.
The unions expressed readiness to reopen negotiations with the government concerning their outstanding concerns. These encompass reducing food costs, easing internet constraints, and implementing a wage agreement established with the government in November.
The strike caused disturbances at numerous mines in the world's leading bauxite producers. Traders noted on February 26 that alumina prices in China rose amid the strike, although Chinese bauxite inventories restrained their influence.
