The PP continues to call it "implausible and wrong" that the building that the PNV has recovered in Paris belongs to jeltzales
The Group of the European People's Party (Christian Democrats) and European Democrats has responded in a statement to the 'insults' expressed by the President of the PNV, Aitor Esteban, at the events held on Saturday in Paris and has once again questioned whether this building really belonged to the PNV and has argued that it belonged to the Basque Government.
The PNVofficially celebrated the return of the building on Marceau Avenue in Paris on Saturday . The building was returned to the jeltzale party underthe historical memory law . President Aitor Esteban accused the PP and Vox of being "worthy heirs of Francoism" for their criticism of their return.
Today, the People's Party of the Basque Country issued a note in which it held its own and described the "theory" used by the PNV to take ownership of the Paris building as "implausible" and "lacking in rigour".
The PP has claimed that Esteban's "insults were totally inappropriate" and has argued that obtaining the property requires "a law that omits all evidence of veracity."
For the PP, "the building never belonged to the PNV; it was bought by the Basque Government's name and loan holders with the money it had after going into exile."
On the contrary, the Basque Nationalist Party has always argued that this building "belonged to the PNV and was adapted to protect the Basque Government during the war, but in 1940, when the Nazis invaded France, the Gestapo confiscated the building in the name of fascism ", so the PNV has now argued that the Spanish Government" has returned it to its legitimate owner ".
