On the occasion of the 46th anniversary of the Gernika Statute, President Imanol Pradales has posted on the Linkedin social network a message entitled The Differential Action of the Basque Self-Government.
The lehendakari recalled that the Statute was adopted at a time when the Basque Country was experiencing a serious economic and industrial crisis and terrorism was hitting the territory hard.
After noting that 59% of Basques who had the right to vote supported the text, he recalled that the left abertzale abstained. "These are those who continue to despise today, who say that it has not responded to the institutional, social and territorial reality of the Basque Country", he stressed.
The Statute is a pact between the Basques and between the Basques and the State, in the words of the lehendakari, who has denounced that it is still unfulfilled 46 years later. It is time to take the final step, according to Pradales, who has asked Pedro Sánchez to close the Statute folder this year.
The lehendakari has considered that, for the future, the Basque Country must take a "qualitative leap" and "enter a new phase", in which the Basque Country needs new political capacities to meet new challenges such as migration or industrial and technological transformation.
He has also advocated the promotion of "an effective model of bilaterality and an impartial system of guarantees." Pradales believes that "it is essential to have a new regulatory structure that prevents unilateral decisions to avoid unilateral decisions that erode or limit the self-government achieved as before."
To deny the letter, Pradales has called for the recognition of self-government as an original right and has said that it is time to move towards a pact that improves our self-government.
