The Basque Confederation, Biga Bai, Erakasle, Euskal Haziak, Euskara Geroan, Ikas-bi and SEASKA have been convened by the different agents who have participated in the human chain organized by the associations Euskal Konfederazioa, Ikas-bi and Seaska. More than 1,000 people have been cited in Baiona.

The purpose of the concentration was to support the decision of the public school Baffair-Quieta of the capital and to reject the decision of the French Ministry of Education. The Minister of Education, Jean-Michel Blanquer, has banned teaching in Basque from being taught at the Bfairly Quieta School. The agents working for the teaching of Euskera wish to denounce that this decision has led to a breakdown.

The mobilisation of Baiona has joined the 21 demonstrations in the French State in defence of minority languages. Under the motto "for our languages to live", they have claimed that compulsory education "is not done in French" and that minority languages must be respected.

Council Secretary-General Paul Bilbao and Centre Director Agurne Gaubeka have also been present. Gaubeka said: "The prohibition of the model of linguistic immersion in Basque demonstrates that in the French State there is no recognition and protection of minority languages, in our case, it is impossible to protect and promote Basque because it prohibits all models that are not the base and axis of French. The French Constitution itself becomes an oppressor to fundamental human rights. Therefore, it does not respect the plurality of citizenship and remains committed to homogenizing the language and culture of citizenship of the future".

Jean-Rene Etxegarai, Mayor of Baiona and President of the Single Community of Iparralde, expressed his regret at the murder. "We complain. I do not understand the position of the French Government: it is a reversal, with regard to the significant progress of Euskal Herria. Also politically, I don't see the government's interest in making these dogmatic decisions; it doesn't share the government's image. I ask you to detect an exit as soon as possible.”

The organization has warned that the response to the call has been unbeatable and has explained that in the coming days there will be mobilizations.

A Basque delegation will meet on Tuesday, 13 October with the French Ministry of Education, Language Policy and Culture.
