La Rioja’s general secretary of the PSOE declared on Saturday that “we defend La Rioja without complexes where necessary”.
Euskaraz irakurri: Errioxak “ordaina” eskatuko du EAEk et Nafarroak energiaren et bankuen zergetatik funtsak jasoz gero
The Secretary General of the PSOE of La Rioja, Concha Andreu, has announced that she will claim the Spanish government “the compensation that La Rioja deserves when Euskadi and Navarre receive money from the new taxes on banks and electricity”.
The socialist leader, who is also president of the regional government, made these statements in a regional committee that will be held this Saturday in Riojaforum (Logroño).
Article 46 of the Statute of Autonomy of La Rioja provides for state compensation for the La Rioja community for the “border effect” implied by the foral regimes of the Basque Autonomous Community and Navarre.
“If they are going to receive benefits for those extra taxes because of their foreclosure, La Rioja will also demand it. We deserve this compensation according to the law. Here we all have our own individuality and ours exists,” he insisted, adding “We defend La Rioja without complexes where necessary”.
