"This [the contacts between the Interior and Otegi's collaborators] confirms what Vox has been denouncing since the beginning of the legislature: this unworthy Interior Minister and this social-communist government have used ETA as the insurer of the investiture, and then they have continued using ETA, that is, Bildu, to carry out each of the important agreements of the legislature such as the PGE".

All this -Olona added- at the cost of bringing to the table of the Democrats those who represent the terrorist action of ETA in Congress, Bildu, and on the other through unworthy agreements that have allowed up to five ETA members to have been transferred to prisons near the Basque Country in what I have described as "bloody Fridays".

In this way, the general secretary of Vox has demanded "the immediate dismissal or resignation of the unworthy Minister of the Interior, who has not only abandoned the victims of terrorism, the State security forces and bodies and prison officials, but also has to take into account that he is a judge in the National Court, but of his condition as a judge there is not even a shadow of his toga. A single word will say in his political epitaph: traitor ".

For Olona, ​​Grande-Marlaska "will fall for his subordinates, and the place that awaits him is the dock for him to assume his criminal responsibility."

Along the same lines, the president of Vox, Santiago Abascal, has denounced "the payment" of the PSOE to ETA after the information published on the prison policy carried out by the Government.

"The PSOE is paying the favors to the terrorist group ETA for having brought it to power. And it is doing it by destroying the institutions and trampling on the memory of its colleagues and all the victims. The PSOE is a pest for the victims" , has pointed out.
