Interview with Pello Otxandiano, EH Bildu, in ETB, December 17

Date:

According to the spokesperson of EH Bildu in the Basque Parliament, the positions of the Basque Government and the Provincial Council of Bizkaia had nothing to do with the negotiations of their corresponding budgets. “The Gasteiz Executive’s lack of will has been demonstrated,” he said.

“For the first time, the Bizkaia Provincial Council has had a real will to negotiate the budgets with EH Bildu and it has been possible to reach an agreement.” These are the words of EH Bildu’s spokesperson in the Basque Parliament: Otxandiano hairinterviewed in the ETB1 program ‘Egun On Euskadi’.

According to what he criticized, the attitude of the Basque government during the negotiation of its bills was “very different”, and this is what he explained: “In the case of Bizkaia, in the economic obligations, the 2022 agreement between EH Bildu and the government parties have the same percentage as agreed in Bizkaia. It is a reference that we have also accepted for the negotiations we have conducted with the Gasteiz Executive, always aware that we are dealing with a situation. Government with a majority Well, what the Basque government has offered to EH Bildu is half of that reference.

The parliamentary spokesperson has reiterated that the issue of housing and your own average interprofessional salary They have always been the priorities of the sovereigntist coalition. In this sense, he has criticized the recent statements of the Minister of Housing and Urban Agenda of the Basque Government, Denis Itxaso, who cited the “obstacles” of the municipalities as a difficulty in making progress in the field of housing. Otxandiano finds these statements unacceptable and confirms that the powers and resources available to both the Basque government and the municipal councils are not comparable. That is why he asked Itxaso to act responsibly.

He also wanted to make it clear that EH Bildu is the same attitude in all institutions when negotiating the corresponding budgets, always giving priority to ‘the direction of public policy’.

This Friday, December 20, the Basque Parliament will vote on the budget proposal of the Basque Parliament for next year. Although the Minister of Finance and Finance, Noel D’Anjou, concluded the negotiation process with EH Bildu last week, Otxandiano has insisted that on some issues “still possibilities for agreement“It has turned out that last-minute agreements are possible.” As Ibarretxe said, “we negotiate until dawn.” Technically it is possible.”
