[HIGHLIGHTS] Train drivers' union GDL calls for a new rail strike

Train drivers' union GDL calls for a new rail strike. In the tariff dispute, Deutsche Bahn recently offered talks for Monday.

GDL's core demand in the collective bargaining dispute with the railway is the gradual introduction of a 35-hour week with full wage compensation. The GDL has already gone on strike five times in the current collective bargaining round; the fifth strike lasting 35 hours only ended on Friday afternoon. More soon at SPIEGEL.de czl/AFP/Reuters.
