The president of the EBB made these statements on the 122nd anniversary of the death of the founder of the PNV, Sabino Arana, and one day after EH Bildu held an anti-fascist demonstration on the streets of Bilbao.
The PNVrepresents the true anti-fascist values, which it does not use the same weapons as that,such as violence, coercion and fear ", stressed this Sunday Aitor Esteban , president of the EBB, who has called for "no one to get worse".
On the 122nd anniversaryof the death of PNV founder Sabino Arana , a political event was held in Sukarrieta on Sunday morning.
As a "symbol" of this struggle against authoritarianism, he recalls that the PNV has recently recovered the iconic du building in Paris, a building that was used during the Civil War, when the government was forced into exile, but which wasconfiscated and handed over to the Franco regime.
In this context, Esteban has asked for a "historical memory" egin of the events that have been decisive:" What happened in the so-called transition, on the 23rd, what happened with Mikel Zabalza, who was behind the Aldana bar attack, or what happened in the Sanfermines of March 3 and 78. "
"The Spanish Statemust declassify the documents that can clarify the most complex and complex passages of its most recent history, because only in this way will we achieve a history based on the truthand not just a one-sided account, "added the President of the EBB." The Franco law of official secrets must berepealed , "he reiterated.
"Europe is experiencing a worrying democratic setback and the ultra-right is very comfortable, "Esteban warned." Many are silent about those who want to deny the rights achieved. "He has therefore stressed the role of democratic nationalism in"maintaining stability" and "moving forward."
"The rights and freedomsthat we have today cannot be certified; they are not guaranteed, "Esteban warned, setting as an example the situation in Ukraine, Budapestorthe US.
"We do not stand under the motto of the banners or atthe same time pretendtobe of an institutional and anti-system party , "Esteban stressed one day after EH BilduK Bilbo's streets theanti-fascist demonstration .
"This is how fascism and authoritarianism are fought, "said Esteban, who has claimed the trajectory of his party in defending democracy." This commitment is not rhetorical, but the ethical basis of a democratic Basque Country, so, as Mr Manuel de Irujo said, "let those who disagree with it stand in line."
