The Association of Euskaldunes Sasiburu denounces that the City of Barakaldo "has used a language other than the Basque language" in a campaign

  • Once the complaint has been published, the City Council of Barakaldo has removed the Basque version of the complaint. Sasiburu has denounced the "humiliating" use he has made of Euskera and has asked for public forgiveness from those responsible so that the use of Euskera is not repeated, that they block the web and that they put the necessary means in place.

The Association of Euskaldunes Sasiburu of the Basque town has criticized the Basque Country used by the City of Barakaldo in the campaign to promote consumption. “25 November 5 December Save 33% of your purchases to guide the local economy. Get your bonus and a stomach in which campaigns like “the campaign in which the establishments participate” appear and denounce that they have used “a language that is not the Basque language” “with stones and indignation”. Saisuburu added that on all websites except on the website a language other than the Basque language is used and that the supplementary document to buy the bonus is entirely in Spanish. After the complaint filed by the association, the Basque version was withdrawn and can only be read in Spanish.

In this way, the association has ensured that "the page would be closed immediately and the criticisms would be heard to a large extent" if this failure occurred in the Spanish version. Sasiburu has stated that all of this has “arduos”, and the mayor of Barakaldo, who is the host of the campaign; the head of the Staff area of the City Hall; the head of the Ingurualde campaign; and the designer Drowers have been guilty of “not respecting the linguistic rights of all Barakaldeses”. "No one supervises the documents that are going to be published?" he asked the association.

Sasiburu called for each agent to "make his own thought" and for steps to be taken "until linguistic rights are guaranteed", added lehendakari. They ask for public forgiveness for the "humiliating" use of the two official languages, to block the web "until they are properly translated" and to enable the necessary means to prevent this type of event from recurring.

To live in Basque, the Republic of Euskera
