In a heartfelt message during Sunday’s Angelus, Pope Francis voiced his solidarity with nearly 2,000 workers facing redundancy at Beko Europe’s Italian plants. His words came just one day after meeting a delegation of affected employees at the Vatican.
> “I am close to the workers of Siena, Fabriano, and Ascoli Piceno, who defend in solidarity the right to work, which is a right to dignity,” the Pope said. “May their jobs not be taken away, for economic or financial reasons.”
The announcement of 1,935 job cuts follows Beko Europe’s decision to shutter three major facilities by the end of 2025: the Siena plant in Tuscany, the Comunanza site near Ascoli Piceno in Marche, and the cold line in Cassinetta near Varese in Lombardy. These closures mark a significant shift in the company’s Italian operations and have sparked widespread concern among unions and local communities.
Beko Europe, formerly part of Whirlpool’s Italian division, has been engaged in a long and complex labor history—one that includes 12 years of redundancy payments and restructuring efforts. The latest move is part of a broader strategic plan communicated by the Turkish multinational parent company, raising questions about the future of industrial employment in the region.
As workers rally to protect their livelihoods, Pope Francis’s public support adds moral weight to their cause, reminding the world that behind every economic decision are families, communities, and the fundamental human right to dignified work.
A dramatic drop in the price of imported washing machines from South Korea has sparked concern among U.S. appliance giant Whirlpool. Recent data reveals that units once priced at nearly $840 are now entering the market at just $73—a staggering decline that has Whirlpool questioning the fairness of global competition.
🗣️ In a statement released Monday, Whirlpool confirmed it has “shared its concerns about this data with the administration at various levels.” The company has also taken its grievances directly to foreign competitors, including Samsung, LG, and the owner of GE Appliances. Whirlpool emphasized that “recent trade policies can only help level the playing field for U.S. manufacturers if foreign-owned companies play by the rules.”
🇺🇸 With more than a century of manufacturing history in the U.S., Whirlpool says it remains committed to defending its workforce of approximately 20,000 American employees. The company’s message is clear: fair trade isn’t just about policy—it’s about accountability.

The world’s premier showcase for home appliances and consumer electronics, IFA Berlin, is set to remain a cornerstone of the city’s event landscape for years to come. Organizers, including IFA Management GmbH, GFU Consumer & Home Electronics GmbH, Clarion Events Ltd, and Messe Berlin GmbH, alongside Berlin’s Governing Mayor Kai Wegner and Mayor and Senator for Economics, Energy, and Public Enterprises Franziska Giffey, announced during IFA 2025 that the event’s contract has been extended ahead of schedule, securing its place in Berlin until at least 2034.
IFA CEO Leif Lindner expressed enthusiasm about the decision, stating, “Berlin offers a robust trade fair infrastructure, a vibrant environment, and the allure of a global metropolis. We are thrilled with the confidence shown in us and are confident that IFA Berlin will continue to thrive as a success story.”
