Jaizkibel Company has reproached the City Council for "putting those who defend and deny rights on the same level."
The Jaizkibel Company in Hondarribia, where women also parade as soldiers, has accused the City Council of acting with a view to the Alarde on 8 September because, according to the company, "there has been nothing new" and has reproached it for "putting those who defend rights and those who deny them on the same level".
Jaizkibel Company has stated in a statement that in its resolution on the celebration of this year's Alarde, the City Council has set the times and distribution of places for the traditional and mixed parade, without choosing the unified Alarde; "it forgets that the problem is discrimination", it has recalled.
For the company, "it advocates consensus and dialogue, regardless of the fact that those who deny women the right to participate in the Alarde have never participated in the forums created for this purpose."
He has also criticized the fact that the City Council "in no way" reacts to the distribution of space in the Gernika Tree, which he has lamented is "neither fair nor fair."
"They want to relegate the Jaizkibel Company to a corner without recognizing the space that belongs to it," he has censured. The same sources have pointed out that "for years different proposals" have been put on the table to participate in this party, such as the parade at the end, but always "along with the other companies that are within the Alarde."
"This proposal meant renouncing our main objective, which is for women to participate freely in the Alarde, not only in Jaizkibel, but in the company that everyone chooses, but we wanted an agreement, so we raised it," they explained.
