The ITF has written to the Brazilian government and has called upon affiliates to support airline colleagues in defence of Brazil's flag carrier, Varig.

General Secretary David Cockroft has written to President Lula calling for support for a union-drafted alternative plan to save the airline; affiliated unions are also asked to write letters.
