Interview with Unai Urruzuno, spokesman for EH Bildu, in Euskadi Irratia, March 2

Date:

According to the spokesman for EH Bildu, the judges’ judgments “impose an ideology”, instead of protecting the language rights of citizens. This situation, he said, requires “pause reflection.”

The most recent court decisions regarding the Basque profiles of civil servants show that the language rights of Basque citizens are “in the hands of some judges” and are a clear example of the “level of self-government we have”. These are the words of the EH Bildu spokesperson, unai uruzunoafter being asked about the sentence published yesterday by the TSJPV regarding the linguistic profiles of the employees of the Uliazpi Foundation.

Urruzuno believes that “we are facing a very serious political and judicial offensive” against the Basque language. He believes that it is not “just a conviction”, but “a measure that calls into question the rights of an entire people”. “We are not in a bilingual society, we are in a diglossic society and there is a will from some estates to keep that diglossia, to keep Basque as a secondary language,” he added in an interview in Euskadi Irratia.

This scenario, he affirms, requires “a slow reflection” on the situation the Basque language finds itself in, because the “judges are applying an ideology” rather than “defending some rights”.

EH Bildu’s spokesperson has also referred to the deaths of two prisoners this week in Araba and Gipuzkoa prisons. In this sense, he has argued that there is a “need for a new prison model” based on “restorative justice”. He understands that with the transfer of prison jurisdiction to the CAV, it is time to analyze this case and take steps “in a different direction”.

Finally, the parliamentarian was also questioned about the proposal of the coalition of the nationalist left to dissolve the ethics committee of the Basque parliament. He believes that the ethics committee “discovers nothing” and is useless. “Transparency is not a symbol of this government, unable to control the gateway that goes from the public administration to the private sector… Cases like this are widespread, and while not illegal, it is a very wrong practice” , they said. closed. .
