The Basque Parliament calls for an inventory of companies linked to the occupation of Gaza
PNV and PSE-EE support the resolution that has gone ahead, in which, among other things, trade relations call for respect for international human rights law and UN regulations, while the text presented by EH Bildu and Sintre, which called for the suspension of contracts by companies benefiting from occupation, has been rejected.
The Basque Parliament has today asked the Government of Vitoria for an inventory of its economic or commercial relations with companies or companies "directly or indirectly related to the illegal occupation of Gaza".
At this morning's session, the text presented by the PNV and the PSE-EE was passed in the Chamber of Vitoria-Gasteiz with the vote in favour of both groups, EH Bildu and Sumar abstained, EA PP and Vox voted against. Through trade relations, socialists and jeltzales want a list of companies and companies that fuel the 'repression of the Palestinian people'.
EH Bildu and Sumar were originally to present two texts, but they have finally brought to Parliament a compromise which has not obtained the necessary support, eta, in the vote, rejected the proposal. The two left-wing groups were calling for the suspension of all relations and contracts with companies benefiting from the occupation of Gaza as soon as possible.
During the debate, the PNV parliamentarian Maitane Ipiñazar described the content of the resolution adopted today as' very important '. In her words,' some groups' want to make it clear that the government is not 'doing enough' for Palestine and has been very critical of this position.
For her part, Diana Urrea of EH Bildu has argued that private trade relations must comply with international law and that it is the responsibility of all companies to respect human rights.
