Javier De Andres on Radio Euskadi.
The president of the Basque PP, Javier de Andrés, has stated that the PNV is a "subordinate" party to the PSOE and will not support any other option.
In an interview with Radio Euskadi, De Andrés said that the PP makes "political criticism" of the PNV, a party that responds with "very fat words." He contextualized the reaction: "They get nervousbecause they associate them with Santos Cerdán and Antxon Alonso, but that was said by Cerdán himself, not by the PP. "
He also referred to the meeting he will be holding next Friday with the lehendakari to discuss the political scene in the Basque Country and the state, and he said that he will say 'exactly the same' as he says in public.
On the contacts between the Basque parties to discuss self-government and the statute, De Andrés has criticized that the PNV has "discarded the PP" , despite the fact that a year ago the then PNV president, Andoni Ortuzar, said that they "wanted to participate."
"It is a serious mistake to exclude 100,000 Basque voters and the main Spanish party from these meetings, but we will continue to wait for a call that has not happened in a year," he said.
With regard to their position on reform, he points out that they are in favour of increasing the administrative capacity of the institutions and the services they provide, but do not consider an approach for ideological purposes to be "desirable".
It has also been in favour of the transfer to the Basque Country of outstanding competences "provided that they are practical and provide service", although it has criticised the fact that efforts are being made to transfer the exclusive competences of the State, by changing the qualification of certain institutions, and has set as an example ports.
De Andrés also referred to the increase in crime in the Basque Country and called for "clear and objective identification" of those who create these situations, their economic and social situation, their origin and cultural preparation as a first step towards preventing it.
