Gure Esku calls for "the will of the majority to prevail over partisan views" and claims the right to decide
The platform for the right to decide has held its Assembly of Partners in Vitoria-Gasteiz. "Political and social actors must act responsibly and with ambition to take firm steps towards full sovereignty at this historic moment," they said.
Gure Esku has called on the "political representatives of Euskal Herria and the other political and social actors" to "put the will of the majority of the Basque people above partisan perspectives" and has once again claimed the right to decide "freely and democratically our future".
At the Assembly of Partners held in Vitoria-Gasteiz, a resolution was adopted on the political context , in which "political and social actors must act with responsibility and ambition to take firm steps towards full sovereignty at this historic moment", they said.
"The difficulties and inability to decide to respond to everyday problems and future challenges do not mean that there is no chance of progress or that we have not gathered enough strength to do so," they argue, believing that "the foundations for progress as a people have emerged in recent decades."
They call for "action with historical responsibility, both political and social actors and citizens" and call for "action with ambition, determination and steps appropriate to the importance of the political moment".
"In the face of the erosion or centralist tendencies of the competences of the Spanish and French States, we are willing to make our own decisions in our country," they have proclaimed.
Among the demands made to the "political representatives and other political and social actors of Euskal Herria", Gure Esku has called for the majority will of the Basque people to prevail over partisan views, "for the right of the Basques to freely and democratically decide our future and, with a new impetus, to revitalize the Basque Euskera and Basque culture".
The latter, according to Gure Esku, is "urgent." In fact, "it is time to recognize the Basque language as an official language, with all its rights", for which it is necessary to "articulate an appropriate and effective legal and political architecture that protects, strengthens and expands Basque culture".
