UPN and pp have criticized in the Senate the extension of the agreement signed between the Government of Navarra and the Basque Government for the dissemination of EITB in Navarra. The Upper House dealt with the extension of the report on Wednesday, which has already been suspended.

UPN Senator Alberto Catalunya has stated that "the government of the Basque Autonomous Community does not comply with the pact that is extended" and has been "absolutely convinced". According to the regionalist senator, "Basque public television does not respect the institutional reality of Navarre in its programming and information, as required by the agreement". In his opinion, the challenge of the agreement "is not an Euskaraphobia or a vascophobia", and he has defended that the agreement itself is "a navarrophobia".

For her part, pp. senator Amelia Salanueva has been critical of President Txibite and accused him of "following the roadmap of nationalism and television indoctrination". "The PNV has put a red carpet on its propaganda in Navarra," he said.
