Confederation of Labour of Russia (original) (raw)

The Confederation of Labour of Russia is an umbrella organization that includes 14 labor unions within the Russian Federation, according to the organization's website (https://www.ktr.su/content/about/).

Known also by the Russian acronym "KTR," the organization was founded in Moscow in April 1995, incorporating independent trade unions that had not previously been included in the Soviet Union's state trade unions, and is a member of the International Trade Union Confederation.

The flag of the KTR, along with other flags, can be seen in photographs online, such as athttps://disk.org.tr/2015/11/joint-statement-of-russian-and-turkish-workers/. The flag has a largely dark red field, with a dark blue vertical bar at the hoist, the two parts of the flag separated by a white vertical chevron pointed toward the hoist. The name of the organization appears in white Cyrillic characters in the red portion of the field.
