Euskaraz irakurri: Eremu mistoan sartzea errefusatu du Nafarroako Parlamentuak, NA+ et PSNren bottoekin

The plenary session of the Parliament of Navarra rejected this Thursday, with the votes of Navarra Suma and PSN, a bill aimed at amending the 1996 Ley Foral del Vascuence to allow the inclusion of Mañeru in the mixed zone, a debate that has led to harsh recriminations between the socialists and their partners in government.

Jabi Arakama van gero bai, has defended the initiative signed by his group along with EH Bildu, Podemos and IE to respond to a request from Mañeru, his inclusion in the mixed zone, which would mean “extension of rights” for a citizenry two-thirds defends this measure, as well as restoring the recognition of past centuries as a Basque municipality. In this regard, he recalled that the 64% of Mañeru’s students enrolled in the public school of Puente la Reina, he studies in Basque, in model D.

In the turn in favor of the bill, Bakartxo Ruiz, out EH Bilduasked the PSN “what’s the problem”, “what’s the scandal”to “close the door” to the request of the Mañeru City Council, and has attributed to it “the crab policy” and a language policy that “seeks to contain or even counter the existing” despite the advance of sociolinguistic realities with that “there is no way to understand his resistance”.

Ainhoa ​​Aznárez, van Canhas considered “luck” and “a treasure” with two of its own languages ​​in Navarre and “difficult to explain” that Mañeru, unlike what happened to his neighbours, cannot enter the mixed zone. “We do not understand that the majority groups oppose the recognition of a right by skipping municipal autonomy and the sovereign decision of a plenary” when “this is not about nationalism or extremism”, but about “rights being denied” .

Marisa de Simon, van I.Ehas declared the vote in favor of his coalition on the bill, indicating that his group “assumes the unanimous decision of the popular representation of Mañeru”.

Against the initiative, Iñaki Iriarte, out NA+has emphasized that “Castilian remains the usual language of the majority of the inhabitants of Mañeru” although “the percentage of Basque speakers has grown” because the sociolinguistic reality is changing, but it is “a minority” and consequences must be taken into account, for example for the valuation of municipal jobs or as a language of instruction in education, for which reason he has doubted the “true will” of the residents and has opted for “caution”.

For him psnhas criticized Inmaculada Jurío Geroa Bai for raising this issue when “they couldn’t defend it in the last legislature” for its “complexes” or its “mismanagement”and added that “you have to have a lot of face” to come “to teach progressivism” and to “interrogate a population” that “doesn’t care” about this debate, “a political discourse that favors only the nationalisms that remember that making a language official is the most”.
