PSOE and its partners agree with EH Bildu's request to declassify the events of the 78 sanfermines
PP and Vox accuse the PSOE of carrying out the operation to "launder" EH Bildu. The vote on the initiative will take place on Thursday.
EH Bildu has asked the Congress of Deputies on Tuesday, as a non-legislative proposal, to declassify the documentation related to the 1978 sanfermines events in which the militant of the Revolutionary Communist League (LKI) Germán Rodríguez died. The vote on the proposal will take place on Thursday, but the PSOE and its members - Sumar, PNV, ERC and Junts - have supported the initiative in plenary.
The EH Bildu proposal urges the Government to continue to clarify the events of the 1978 sanfermines, including the declassification of documentation and the declaration of all those affected by the application of the law of democratic memory as victims of Francoism.
The riots began with the entry of the National Police into the bullring in Pamplona on 8 July 1978. The reason for this was the placing of a banner in favour of the granting of amnesty to political prisoners. Subsequently, the riots continued in the streets of the city, where six other people were shot dead by the young Germán Rodriguez.
EH Bildu's congressional spokeswoman,Mertxe Aizpurua , has argued in plenary that "the time has come to move effectively and firmly toward truth, justice and reparation."
For her part, PSOE Congresswoman Rafaela Romero has advocated honoring the memory of all the victims of Francoism, terrorism and the persecution of the "new fascism" and has stressed that all victims have the right to know the truth, or at least to try to declassify documents.
With regard to the specific initiative of EH Bildu, he said that his group and the Summer had tabled amendments to prevent the "important steps" taken by the institutions and the Navarre Government on the events of the sanfermines from being ignored.
The PNVhas also registered an amendment calling for the declassification of documents relating to the events of 3 March 1976 in Vitoria-Gasteiz, in which five workers were killed in a church by police action against an assembly of workers.
For their part, PP MP Carlos García Adanero and Vox MP Francisco José Alcarazhave come together to reproach the PSOE for normalizing relations with EH Bildu and have expressed their support for the victims of ETA terrorism.
