- The Spanish Congress will today approve the extension of the state of alarm, thanks to the agreement of the Government with the PNV, by which Treviño will de-escalate under the same conditions as the other Alavese counties.
The agreement reached in recent hours by the PNV with the central government will have three main consequences in Álava: the state of alarm will extend until 24 May, the autonomous elections will be held in July and Treviño will join Álava in the de-escalation process.
A few days ago, the mayors of Arganzón and Treviño County asked for common sense to be acted upon and the confinement in Álava to be accelerated in order to avoid mobility problems. The agreement has received a claim that, according to the PNV, will guarantee "the best services and the closest attention" in the territory of Treviño.
The parties will vote today in the Congress of Deputies on the extension of the state of alarm for another fifteen days. The Spanish Government has given the green light to the conditions set out yesterday by the PNV, and therefore, with the support of the PNV, it is expected that a further extension of the state of alarm will be approved, among other things.
In return, the Government of Spain has agreed to manage the state of alarm with each of the autonomous communities; in the case of the CAV, the deescalation measures will be agreed with the Basque Government and implemented by lehendakari, Iñigo Urkullu.
