A strike by doctors in Germany's public hospitals over wages and working hours that began in March has resulted in losses of millions of euros. Clinics are demanding reimbursement.
The chairman of the Association of University Clinics in Germany (VUD), Rüdiger Strehl, told the Berliner Zeitung daily that Germany's federal states should reimburse clinics for the economic damage they have sustained due to the ongoing strike, which he estimated at 100 million euros ($128 million).
"We will take legal recourse against the states," he said in an interview with the paper, adding that the hospitals were not able to make up for the lost income on their own.
STRIKE (n.) - A cessation of work by employees in support of demands made on their employer, as for higher pay or improved conditions.

You're citing a minor strike, then tossing in some Germany-bashing with strange thoughts of how the communists and muslims are somehow attacking them.

...If it was a minor strike, then Strehl wouldn't sue the government demanding a compensation of 128 million dollars.
