Francoism

The Basque Government's Assessment Committee ruled in 2015 that there was insufficient evidence to refute the official version of suicide, and now, with these new indications, they are asking the Basque Government to reevaluate the case.

A few months before the death of the dictator Franco, on 5 October 1975, ETA killed three civil guards in the shrine of Aránzazu. That same day, at night, three strangers shot Iñaki Etxabe at the bar in Kanpazar. The Spanish Basque Battalion claimed responsibility for the attack. 

According to Sortu's Secretary General, "the Spanish Government is facing an historic opportunity to provide a democratic solution to the Spanish problem."

It is half a century since the Franchists shot Jon Paredes' Txiki 'and Angel Otaegi . For a long time, their relatives have been working hard not to lose their memory. They have felt very forgotten by the institutions, because those two young people who fought against the Franco dictatorship were not recognized as victims until 2012.

The PNV and the PSE-EE claim to be victims of Francoism, but call for terrorism not to be blurred. EH Bildu defends their memory as a "reference" for the fight against Francoism and calls for the PP to remember the "crimes" they committed.

He has announced that he will file a lawsuit for the death of Roque Méndez Villada and José Luis Mondragón Elorza, who died in 1974 in a Franco police operation in Hondarribia.

"Gora Euskal Herria askatuta" can be read on one banner, and on the other you can see two civil guards shooting a person.

The announcement was made by the General Representative of Álava, Ramiro González, during his floral offering this Wednesday in memory of the people repressed in Álava by the Franco dictatorship, an event organized annually by the Provincial Council and the General Meetings of the territory and attended by public offices and family members.

The city reaffirms its commitment to democratic memory and recognition of those who suffered violence, repression and exile during the 1936 military coup and the years of dictatorship. Municipal authorities, associations, institutional representatives and citizens participated in the event.

On 27 September, it will be 50 years since they were shot, and the party has called for participation in the commemorative event to be held in Pamplona. On those who claim that these acts cause "pain", Sortu believes that there are still "primary and secondary victims".

The relatives and political representatives of the 51 Republicans killed by the Franchists have gathered again to pay tribute to the 89 anniversary of the massacre, intellectuals and prominent leaders of Republicanism and Trade Unionism in Pamplona.

Ernai has denounced that "fascist and Spanish attacks have no place" and has called for the mural to be rebuilt in the neighbourhood.

The Draft Law on Classified Information is intended to replace the Law on Official Secrets in force since Francoism. After receiving the green light from the Council of Ministers, the Spanish Government will forward the legal text to the Congress of Deputies for processing.
