Iriarte has taken stock of the two-year term of office. He accused the PNV of “acting aimlessly, anchored in its absolute majority”, stressing that “in times of uncertainty” “sovereign instruments” are needed to implement the “structural changes this country needs”.
The spokeswoman of EH Bildu in the Basque Chamber, Maddalen Iriarte, began his speech today by remembering former MP Igor López de Munain, who died this week, and emphasized his “infinite wisdom and generosity”. “All of Euskal Herria has lost a lot,” he said.
After those words of remembrance, he took stock of the two years of the Basque legislature, stressing that it was clear that the Basque government “It has been overtaken” by events marked first by the pandemic and then by the economic fallout from the Russian invasion of Ukraine. “Conservative, disoriented, with no clear roadmap, a government that cannot assess the gravity of the moment, in the short term and with no long-term strategic vision,” the coalition has seen the Basque government.
Likewise, Iriarte believes that the executive has responded “late and poorly” to problems and has usually “given few answers, palliative measures and patches that don’t even hide the problems”. Faced with this scenario, EH Bildu is demanding “structural measures because many of the country’s problems are structural”. To do this, he stressed the need for Euskal Herria to have “a sovereign instrument of its own” that “responds as best as possible to the needs of this country”.
In her opinion “it is clearer than ever that the New Political Status is increasingly urgent”, and in this sense the spokeswoman for EH Bildu believes that “the PNV does not have the will to change the foundations of the new status that it agrees with us” . “The controversies over transfers are no longer in their own right. We have been like this for 40 years and we know the result well: an artificial dialectical battle in which the Spanish government is fighting the PNV again and again,” he adds.
From September, EH Bildu commits to “putting on the table debates that the government has tried time and again to elucidate with incredible lightness”, as well as “taxes, setting a limit on the price of housing and its own minimum wage”, and to speed up the process of change. to lead. The coalition’s goal for the next two years to exhaust the legislature is to “achieve a welfare pact that leaves no one behind and involves institutions, citizens and social actors”.
