The Asturian's officiality measures his support in the streets

The defenders of the Asturian officiality have wanted to measure in the street the social support for this measure, now that the Government chaired by the socialist Adrián Barbón is promoting the reform of the

of the Principality with the recognition of the Bable as a star point. In

he collected signatures "against linguistic imposition." The exhibition of muscle is pertinent after in September a poll commissioned by Ciudadanos, who opposes it, estimated at 66% Asturians opposed to the equivalence of

For the Xunta's spokesman,

, the demonstration this Saturday has to be seen from the Executive as a support for his proposal for the officiality, but also as a warning that not just any recognition is worth. For them, the article that declares the official status must include four essential aspects: that Asturian and Galician-Asturian be recognized together with Spanish, that the right to know and use those languages ​​be guaranteed, that include the commitment that by law they will be established the terms and areas of its official use and that no one can be discriminated against for the language they use.

Among those attending the demonstration and representing the Asturian Government was the Minister of Culture,

, who has emphasized the need to reach a consensus on the officiality "that emphasizes rights and not obligations".

"It is a historic moment", he affirmed moments before after twelve noon, with the sound of the bagpipe bands in the background and in a festive atmosphere, the march started from the railway station of the Asturian capital and ended in the cathedral square with the reading of a manifesto.

In response, the board of the Foro board released a statement on Thursday to express its "unanimous and absolute rejection" of the "political harassment and targeting" of Pumares, and to recall its "absolute independence in making decisions about its political position."

In this context, the PP champions from the opposition the rejection of co-officiality.
