The President, Imanol Pradales, will meet today in La Moncloa with the President of Spain, Pedro Sánchez España, on the occasion of the Bilateral Cooperation Commission, where they will discuss the impact of the Iranian war on Basque companies and families, migration (request for recognition of the Basque Country as the "northern border"), the medical strike, the outstanding transfers and the situation of Tubos Reunidos.
Last Tuesday, the spokeswoman for the Basque Government, Maria Ubarretxena, stressed her 'deep concern' about the consequences of the international conflict and pointed out that the lehendakari will send Sanchez a decalogue of measures previously proposed.
As far as health care is concerned, he warned that the medical strike is causing problems in the system: "Having a one-week strike a month is extending our waiting lists, it's creating a problem for us in Osakidetza, "and he criticized that Minister Monica Garcia" is not responding, "which" entrenches "the situation.
The declaration of the Basque Country as the "northern frontier" in the field of migration and the restructuring of the debt of Tubos Reunidos will also be discussed at today's meeting.
Conclusions of the last meeting
Ubarretxena welcomed the meeting two weeks ago with representatives of the Spanish Government in Madrid in the bilateral subcommittee and announced that "important agreements" had been reached on airport management.
He then explained that the Spanish Government had improved on the proposal put forward and that if the agreements committed were included in the document to be signed, "the agreement could be close". Ubarretxena advanced that the lehendakari and the President of the Spanish Government would meet before Easter and that a final agreement for the management of Basque airports could be signed.
