Starbucks boss Howard Schultz has said his company would employ 10,000 refugees over the next
five years. Mr Schultz is the CEO of the international coffee shop chain. He is very unhappy with
President Donald Trump's new ban on the citizens of seven Middle Eastern and North African
countries. Schultz said his promise was, "a concerted effort to welcome and seek opportunities for
those fleeing war, violence, persecution and discrimination". He added: "There are more than 65
million citizens of the world recognized as refugees by the United Nations, and we are developing
plans to hire 10,000 of them over five years in the 75 countries around the world where Starbucks
does business."
Many people are angry at Mr Schultz's plans. Trump supporters have asked people to boycot
Starbucks coffee shops. They say that Mr Schultz should be doing more to help the 40,000
unemployed military veterans in the USA instead of refugees. Starbucks said it has already hired
8,800 of the 10,000 veterans it promised to hire in 2013 by 2018. Trump supporters have also
asked consumers to quit doing business with other companies who are critical of the President,
like Macys and Amazon. On the opposite side, opponents of Mr. Trump have started the hashtag
#GrabYourWallet. This encourages consumers to avoid doing business with companies that have
supported Mr Trump or have business links to him.
El jefe de Starbucks, Howard Schultz, dijo que su compaa empleara a 10.000 refugiados en los
prximos cinco aos. Mr Schultz es el CEO de la cadena internacional de cafeteras. Est muy
descontento con la nueva prohibicin del presidente Donald Trump a los ciudadanos de siete
pases de Medio Oriente y frica del Norte. Schultz dijo que su promesa fue "un esfuerzo
concertado para dar la bienvenida y buscar oportunidades para aquellos que huyen de la guerra, la
violencia, la persecucin y la discriminacin". l agreg: "Hay ms de 65 millones de ciudadanos
del mundo reconocidos como refugiados por las Naciones Unidas, y estamos desarrollando planes
para contratar a 10.000 de ellos durante cinco aos en los 75 pases de todo el mundo donde
Starbucks hace negocios ".
Mucha gente est enojada con los planes del seor Schultz. Los partidarios de Trump han pedido a
las personas que boicoteen las cafeteras de Starbucks. Dicen que el seor Schultz debera estar
haciendo ms para ayudar a los 40,000 veteranos militares desempleados en los EE. UU. En lugar
de a los refugiados. Starbucks dijo que ya ha contratado a 8,800 de los 10,000 veteranos que
prometi contratar en 2013 para 2018. Los partidarios de Trump tambin han pedido a los
consumidores que dejen de hacer negocios con otras compaas que critican al presidente, como
Macy's y Amazon. En el lado opuesto, los oponentes del Sr. Trump han comenzado la etiqueta
#GrabYourWallet. Esto alienta a los consumidores a evitar hacer negocios con compaas que han
apoyado a Trump o que tienen vnculos comerciales con l.
