The Popular Party and Vox have chosen this Friday to harshly attack the report drawn up by the UN on the concord laws promoted by their coalition governments in Aragon, Castilla y León and the Valencian Community.
One of the most critical was the president of Aragón, Jorge Azcón, who accused the report of containing “massive errors” and “hoaxes”, since in his community no law of harmony has been approved, but what there is is a plan that is still in the pipeline.
The popular leader also regretted having learned about this text through the media, and stressed that its content should be “more serious,” something he attributes to the lack of communication between the international entity and his government and its trust in the information transferred. by the Government of Spain. “What that report says is a lie, there should be more seriousness. This leaves the UN in a bad position, which has not counted on Aragón to prepare this report,” says Azcón.
The UN report in question, advanced by media such as La Vanguardia, points out in its pages that the so-called concord laws would make invisible the “serious violations” committed during the Franco dictatorship, they could lead to “limits to access to the truth about the fate or whereabouts of the victims” and would not be in accordance with international treaties.
Therefore, it urges Spain to adopt “all necessary measures” to guarantee strict respect for international standards regarding the preservation of the historical memory of serious violations of human rights.
In this sense, the Minister of Territorial Policy and Democratic Memory, Ángel Víctor Torres, announced this Friday in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria that next week he will convene the Government of Aragon for the bilateral commission planned to resolve conflicts between the State and the communities. The objective, according to Torres, is to urge the regional Executive to reverse the controversial repeal of the Democratic Memory Law approved last February.
For his part, the national leader of the PP, Alberto Núñez Feijóo, has stressed in reference to the report that “it is best to read the texts and not consider laws that have not yet been approved as approved.” At an event in Figueres with Dolors Monserrat, head of the PP list in the European elections, the popular man argued that for his formation, Franco’s 40 years “have been a dictatorship” and ETA has been “a terrorist band.” “Unfortunately, the Government has a commitment to Bildu and cannot speak of a terrorist group. We do,” he added.
Another of those involved, the Valencian president, Carlos Mazón, pointed out that this report “does not refer to the Valencian Community, because since I have been president I have initiated 422 exhumations of murders caused by the violence of the Franco dictatorship.”
“The Concordia Law not only consolidates and protects the rights of all victims of Francoism, but also incorporates new rights of other political violence (in reference to ETA) that also have rights,” reports the delegate of this medium in the region. , Salvador Enguix.
From Madrid, the general secretary of the PP, Cuca Gamarra, admitted this morning in a television interview that she was unaware of the content of the document, but that she sees it possible that its authors are unaware of the laws they speak of and “what concord means.”
In this sense, he added that the rapporteurs must also ignore the law of democratic memory that “Bildu has imposed, which has wanted to promote that the transition is not a democratic period and I believe that path is the dangerous one,” he added.
Vox also attacked the report, calling it a “crude advertising scam,” and they have defended these laws to attack the UN. “It is a report that shows what these globalist organizations are for: not to observe and help countries solve the real and concrete needs of their citizens, but to help governments obedient to the 2030 Agenda when they need a smokescreen” , they assure.
Sources from the ultra party add that they do not plan to give “not even a millimeter” in the defense of all victims of violence, in the protection of concord, the unity of the Spanish people and in preserving “the freedom that the memory laws have attacked so much.” of the progressive congress.”
