Thousands of active and retired education sector workers in Venezuela returned to the streets Thursday to demand the restitution of salary benefits and respect for their collective bargaining in what was the fourth demonstration summoned by the guild in the last two weeks. Demonstrators took to the center of Caracas in a protest that traveled at least three blocks with the aim of reaching parliament, but which was forced to end at the entrance of the Ministry of Higher Education, where armed forces personnel prevented the protesters going any further.
