EXCLUSIVE VIDEO REPORT of visiting families who staged a spontaneous mass demonstration at the blockaded Port of Koper - working towards temporary restoration of the port’s operations along with aspiring to calm down the volatile situation
KOPER, SLOVENIA. Families and supporters of Port of Koper employees who had blocked the entrance to the port for three days staged a peaceful protest at the port’s entrance gates on Sunday (the traditional family day in Slovenia). Around 1,000 employees blockaded the port on Friday morning - before the General meeting of the Port of Koper (Luka Koper) at which the government-controlled Slovenian Sovereign Holding (SDH), the Port of Koper’s majority shareholder, revoked its request for replacement of three of the Port of Koper’s Supervisory board members. The request had been a point of contention because the Port of Koper has a two-tiered board composed of a Supervisory Board and a Management Board. Supervisory Board members have the power to elect or fire members of the Management Board.
