Israel denounces the "laundering of the Zionist state" in the Ordizia Classic

Zarata mediatikoz beteriko garai nahasiotan, merkatu logiketatik urrun eta irakurleengandik gertu dagoen kazetaritza beharrezkoa dela uste baduzu, ARGIA bultzatzera animatu nahi zaitugu. Geroz eta gehiago gara, jarrai dezagun txikitik eragiten.

"Israel - Premier Tech will carry out the laundering of the Zionist State in the Ordizia Classic," they denounce. "Some of you will be wondering about the problem, just the athletes," says the Lagun Network of Palestine in a message addressed to the media. "This team comes to Ordizia as Israel's ambassador. Sylvan Adams, the group's lead owner, has made it clear that his goal is to improve Israel's image, while he receives ever stronger criticism around the world for the continued violation of Palestinian human rights."

"Israel cannot normalize with sports," the press release says. "While Palestinians are shooting every day and expelling them from their lands, Israeli teams appear in our people with a friendly smile. While the European championships are normally disputed, Palestinians are systematically refused to live on their lands and practice normal sport". Lagun Sarea added that the "normal" invitation of the Israeli sports teams is a great boost for the project against the Palestinians, as it "manages to see the colonial project as a normal state".

Support for the Palestinian people has thus been called for on Monday, in the presentation, departure and arrival of cyclists.

 

Nice participation

Cyclists Vincenzo Nibali, Miguel Angel López, Esteban Chavez, Juan Ayuso, Alessandro De Marchi and Simon Yates will visit Monday in Ordizia. Spanish Alejandro Valverde is on the list of registered for the time being, but they have not fully confirmed their presence in the competition, as can be seen in the article published by journalist Iñaki Gurrutxaga in Goierriko Hitza.

A hundred years ago, in 1922, the first edition of the Ordizia Test was held, to be held next year. That this year will be the starting point for the celebrations that will host a number of initiatives.
