In Venezuela, hundreds of public sectors workers protested on Monday in favor of improved salaries and pension benefits. Primarily, teachers, nurses, and police officers took to the streets to voice their demands. These public sector employees have held periodic peaceful protests throughout the past year to demand higher wages from the government. High inflation has damaged the Venezuela economy, and extremely low wages have degraded quality of life for workers.
