Iranian truck drivers have expanded their workforce to include more than 100 towns and cities across the country, while the clerk regime has launched a violent crackdown on the front of the Kurdish city of Sanandaj.
Iranian experts have long urged the continuous U.S. government to provide strike wages and other forms of assistance to recuperators in the Islamic Republic in a bid to improve human rights and lead to changes in internal regimes.
Truck drivers are a key industrial force that helps worsen Iran’s economy.

Alireza Nader, an expert in the Iranian regime studying labor unrest in Iran, told Fox News Digital: “The Trump administration should provide strong support to truck drivers – which will make Trump more leveraged in nuclear negotiations.
The U.S. held talks with the Iranian regime to remove its illegal nuclear weapons program in exchange for sanctions relief.
“The national strike of truck drivers has the potential to paralyze the regime because it faces increasing vulnerability. If other sectors of Iran’s other economy are on strike, especially the energy sector and other transportation sectors, the strike of truck drivers may be more effective.”
Many opponents of the clerk regime hope that the U.S. government will be on the page of the page of former President Ronald Reagan’s script against the now-extinct Communist Poland.
Before the collapse of the Communist Soviet Union, the U.S. government cooperated with the U.S. free labor movement to inject democracy into unions in a largely closed communist society.
The animation work that caused the work to be shut down was started on May 18 in the southern port city of Bandar Abbas, involving working conditions and reducing insurance costs. According to Iranwire, an independent diaspora news agency, the peak in insurance coincides with health care.

The joint Iranian truck driver and heavy vehicle driver also demanded remedies due to the lack of grafted roadside assistance for cargo allocation.
Truck drivers are also seeking to improve expensive spare parts, freight brokerage fees and diesel quotas. Long-term safety is also required on Iranian highways.
The union of truck drivers added: “The driver who protests against bread and dignity is not a riot. Protesting is not a crime, but our legal rights.”
Lisa Daftari, an Iranian expert and editor-in-chief of Foreign Table, told Fox News that “the strike of the latest truck driver nationwide is not an isolated incident, it is just the latest manifestation of the deep rejection of the Iranians. The truth: The Iranian people not only convey the message to their government, but also to the world, urging them to seek freedom and fundamental rights.”

She added: “It’s a basic need, but as history has shown, it’s not easy to achieve under a government that proves that it’s incapable of reforming or giving Iranians the lifespan they deserve.”
In 2019, the American Labor Federation and the Congress (AFL-CIO) urged Tehran to release detained workers’ rights activists. In 2018, a team of unions representing most truck drivers in the United States expressed support for truck drivers’ strikes in more than 290 Iranian cities.
