Where there is a country or a nation, in this World today, the State of Self is essential to simply ensure the survival of that Nation. The trajectory of the Basques in history has shown us that, and the time we live at the moment shows us even more the need for an independent state.
Why do we need an independent state? Because every state constitutes its own system, centered on the main signs of identity of a particular nation or country. Language, Culture, Territoriality, Shared History, Community Awareness, are the characteristics habituales.Euskal Herria is the Nation to the extent that it shares these characteristics, but at present it does not have its own system of protection of these characteristics and is not in that line. Worse still, Euskal Herria’s own signs of identity are weakening and may be about to be completely lost on this wrong path.
Why do we say that this today is the wrong road? Because in Euskal Herria today we do not have a credible political proposal that would allow us to build an independent state. In fact, the political forces considered to be Basque appear integrated into very different political dynamics. The main political concern of these parties is the type of government formed in Paris or Madrid and the type of relationship established with these rotating governments. The justification for these attitudes is always the need to move forward, and as the only way to achieve this, the need to increase the number of votes of their own. But what happens? Towards these possible tactical objectives, the existing Spanish and French State systems are strengthened, both, and the Basques blur, obscure and end up eliminating the path towards their own system.
The Spanish and French States are structured and closed systems whose main function is to eliminate any other means of creating another independent system within the State.
The fact is that both the Spanish and French States are structured and closed systems, whose main function is to eliminate any other form of creation of independent systems within it. Then, the Basque parties that are integrated into these systems, after all, strengthen these two states and reject the possibility of a Basque state (even if it is said otherwise verbally). The examples are clear: the false “bilingualism” leads the Basque to the hole, because the Spanish melts constitutionally (that is, becomes universal) between the Basques, and the Basque does not. In the organization of the executive and/or legislative power, Basque parties become comparisons, because the dominant political system is state (and the Basque parties have accepted it). In the so-called judicial branch.
This behaviour of the Basque parties is causing a qualitative change in the subjective awareness of Basque nationality. Trapped in this dynamic, the new generations, above all, are losing their own national conscience and perceiving the Spanish or French system as natural in all the central areas of each system: speak Spanish or French naturally, adopt all the cultural expressions of the metropolis, feel comfortable without feeling that these identities are imposed.
The current need to create a new Basque subjectivity through renewed internationalization. Starting from the current crisis situation to the innovative process.
