PNV accuses Sare of "immense political clumsiness" by promoting "ethically reprehensible stagings"
PNV parliamentarian
María Eugenia Arrizabalaga
has accused Sare of "immense political clumsiness" by promoting acts such as the march for the rights of
ETA
member
Henri Parot
, which she has described as "ethically reprehensible staging".
In his opinion, there is "a part of the political spectrum" that uses a "double yardstick" with the victims and has "pending" to make "a critical reading" regarding
ETA
.
Arrizabalaga has been asked, on Radio Euskadi, about the events that the citizen support network for
ETA
prisoners will
celebrate this Saturday.
After suspending the demonstration scheduled for today in Arrasate, Sare decided to replace it with alternative acts in town squares against "life imprisonment."
Speaking to Radio Euskadi, the jeltzale parliamentarian described the one committed by Sare as "immense political clumsiness".
As he recalled, yesterday he heard his spokesman Joseba Azkarraga express his "perplexity" at "involuntary attitudes that have reinforced those who reject any step in prison policy."

The victims of Parot bend Bildu before the apathy of the State
Sare
, the platform supported by the left -
wing nationalism
, gave yesterday to pressure from groups of victims of ETA and suspended the march in solidarity with the prisoner Henri Parot. Just 24 hours after the tribute denounced by the associations, the spokesman for Sare and former Basque Minister of Justice
Joseba Azkarraga
announced the recall. Representatives of the Government of Pedro Sánchez and the Lehendakari Iñigo Urkullu publicly applauded the "social and political pressure" exercised since last July by the victims of ETA. However, neither of the two governments, nor the courts of Justice lifted a finger to prohibit an act of solidarity that is linked to the repeated welcome -
ongis etorris-
that are organized to honor ETA members when they serve their sentences.
The victims and related groups have waged a relentless battle for two months against this call.
The first to sound the alarm was the
Villacisneros Foundation
, which on July 23 notified by letter to the Government delegate in the Basque Country,
Denis Itxaso
.
The latter, on August 3, limited himself to responding by interposed person with a two-line note that forwarded his protest to the
Public Prosecutor's Office
.

The AVT celebrates four acts in tribute to the victims of terrorism in Madrid, San Sebastián, Zaragoza and Granada
The
Association Victims of Terrorism
(AVT) has denounced that Sare, the platform that supports ETA prisoners, "continues to show terrorists as victims" despite calling off the march by Henri Parot this Saturday in Mondragón, replacing it with acts in several places to ask for the end of what they call "life imprisonment."
"Although it changes its name and location, these concentrations continue to have the objective of showing terrorists as victims due to an alleged exceptional legislation, and praising those who have been convicted of belonging to or collaborating with ETA," they say in a statement.
The AVT maintains its four acts convened at 11.00 this Saturday in Madrid, San Sebastián, Zaragoza and Granada, points in which the ETA member
Henri Parot caused the 39 deaths
for which he is serving a sentence for crimes of terrorism.
