The Director of Diversity, Coexistence and Intergenerational Solidarity of the Basque Government, Txema Ezkerra, has stressed that "all religions have the right to be able to carry out their activities without discrimination", so" attitudes "towards the Islamic community in Jumilla" are not acceptable ".
"There can be no difference inthe expression of cults between religions, "says Ezkerra, who explains that article 5 of the Basque Law on Places or Centres of Worship and Religious Diversity regulates publicly owned equipment or public spaces for the temporary use of religious activities and states that" there can be no discrimination between a request made by an association in that field, a community. "
He explained that since 2018 there has been a commission of collaboration with the Islamic community in the Basque Country, "with a four-year work plan, an annual agenda and an attempt to value the contribution of the Islamic community in the Basque Country, as well as to seek ways of coexistence and total rejection of terrorism or violent culture of any kind".
In addition, work is currently under way on the development decree of the Inter-Religious Council of the Basque Country, which has explained that an order has been signed to begin drafting it (these are processes that usually last "eight or nine months"), but that work has already begun with the existing confessions in the Basque Country "to have everything ready to start with a firm work plan when it is in place".
Thus, "the first session of dialogue hasalready been held with the eight denominations and religions with a strong presence in the Basque Country "to present the content of the decree and open the deadline for contributions, which will meet again in September.
The Council is expected to be consultative and composed of representatives of the three levels of the Administration and an equal number of representatives of religious denominations, communities or associations.
Its role will be to advise public administrations on everything related to interreligious dialogue and planning, as well as "to attend to everything related to interreligious dialogue", he explained.
