EH Bildu’s spokesperson in the Basque parliament confirms that the leaders of these companies are asking for ‘a fiscal highway’.
EH Bildu’s spokesman in the Basque parliament this week described the statements made by Repsol’s adviser, Josu Jon Imaz, and Petronor’s president, Emiliano López Atxurra, as “shameful”. Both warned the Spanish government that they would subject their investments in Spain to conditions if it maintained the tax on energy companies.
In an interview for the Euskadi Irratia program Faktoria, Kortajaarna pointed out these warnings They are “blackmail”. ‘Are they threatening to withdraw investments because they don’t share fiscal policy? That is unacceptable,” he criticized.
“All that is asked of the banks and these big corporations is that, in a time of big profits, act in solidarity” added EH spokesperson Bildu.
In their words, those responsible for Petronor and Repsol are asking for “a fiscal highway.” “And given all this, it seems striking to me that the Basque government is showing understanding, while the workers who are demanding better do not,” he noted.
