The General Coordinator of EH Bildu, Arnaldo Otegi, predicts an “interesting” political course and believes that if there is an investiture and the legislature begins in the Spanish state, the debate on the territorial model will open. According to him it would be a ‘good’ debate for the Basque citizens ‘if the Basque men and women all go together’.
In an interview with Euskadi Irratia, Otegi referred to the lehendakari’s proposal for a constitutional convention. Otegi respects Iñigo Urkullu’s initiative, but confirms that it is an Anglo-Saxon formula, which is not considered in the Spanish state. EH Bildu’s leader advocates reaching agreement on a land proposal in Euskal Herria before going to the Cortes Generales.
Overlooking the elections to the Basque Parliament, has not clarified whether he will be a candidate for lehendakari from EH Bildu. He explained that the militancy will decide first and finally he.
They have also asked him about negotiations to form a government in Spain. Otegi has recognized that the negotiations will be difficult as the support of many political parties is needed, but he believes Pedro Sánchez will finally be sworn in as president. In this context, Puigdemont will today announce the terms of the Junt to negotiate Sánchez’s investiture.
In this context, the leader of Sumar and acting second vice-president of the Spanish government, Yolanda Díaz, met Carles Puigdemont in Brussels yesterday. According to Otegi, it is a meeting that “normalises Puigdemont”. In any case, he emphasized that the real negotiations are conducted in silence and without photos.
Finally, Otegi has shown caution in negotiating between political parties. On amnesty, he pointed out that in conventional politics one thing is often said and another is done.
