The weekly protests are anti-government, but the metal workers started going on strike this week and the protest also supported them and the route went past the chamber of commerce. (I'm not exactly sure on the details, I haven't paid enough attention to that in the past, but the way I understand it is that every union has yearly negotiations with the chamber of commerce and the metal workers' union is traditionally the first, so it also serves as a signpost for the other unions' negotiations.)
