The Corts Valencianas have approved today, with the votes of the PP and Vox and in a very angry session, the beginning of the five laws that modify the vision that the Botànic had of issues such as historical memory, the presence of Valencian in schools or the election of representatives in the Anti-Fraud Agency. The point of greatest tension has been around the Law of Concord, which will repeal the democratic memory law promoted by the previous executive of Ximo Puig and replace it with one that will cover from 1931 to the present.
The president of the Generalitat Valenciana, Carlos Mazón, has stated that Franco was a dictator and that Francoism “was a dictatorship”, and has reproached the PSPV-PSOE that “they are only interested in Franco.” “Read my lips: yes, he was a dictator. Yes, it was a dictatorship,” Mazón responded when the socialist ombudsman, José Muñoz, asked him if he considers that the Franco regime was a dictatorship, given that with the new law “they dignify the Francoism and they try to whitewash it.
Muñoz has considered it a “little shame” that the word concord, which means joining hearts, is used to talk about a law that is an “infamy” and is supported by a president who feels “represented by fascism.” Faced with this, he has assured that they will always defend the memory of those who fought for freedom, after which all the socialist deputies have shown photos of those who were retaliated against in the Civil War and the Franco regime, such as Miguel Hernández, Peset Aleixandre, Lorca and even a relative. of a deputy.
The president has stated that in the Valencian Community “the only one that has a problem with the Franco regime” is Alicante socialism, alluding to the recent inclusion in the new PSPV-PSOE executive of the historic Alicante leader Ángel Franco.
“It is a Francoist regime like the top of a pine tree, and by the way, it has been in force for 40 years,” said Mazón, to whom the Socialist Ombudsman replied that he does not know if the Socialists have a problem with the Franco regime in Alicante, but they do. They have it “with the Zaplanism” that the president represents.
For his part, the Ombudsman of Compromís, Joan Baldoví, explained that the deputies of his group are wearing black in plenary today in protest of these laws, among them the one that “humiliates again the people who gave their lives for the democracy and freedom” and to the relatives who do not know where they are buried.
For his part, the Vox ombudsman, José María Llanos, has accused the opposition of creating “theater” with these laws, because if his party brought the photos of “the thousands of martyrs massacred by socialism they would not fit in this Parliament.”
