The Government is "very concerned" about the annulment of several articles that prioritize the Basque language in municipalities
According to spokeswoman Maria Ubarretxena, what worries the Basque Government most is "to start judicializing political decisions", especially in the field of the Basque Country. It also seems to her that the "social pact" that existed between the various political parties with regard to the Basque Country has been "broken".
The Basque Government expresses its "deep concern" that the Supreme Court has invalidated several articles that prioritize the Basque language in local institutions . In practice, it has almost disqualified the municipalities of Álava, Bizkaia and Gipuzkoa from prioritizing the Basque language.
Spokeswoman Maria Ubarretxena made an initial assessment on behalf of the Basque Government the day after the verdict against the Euskera.
In an interview with Euskadi Irratia this Thursday, he explained that, as a government, "what worries us is to start judicializing political decisions."
