"This mobilisation in defence of human rights has tried to undermine and criminalise it in some cases," said Begoña Atxa and Joseba Azkarraga, members of the Network, at a press conference held this Friday in Arrasate. In recent days, the demonstration has had a great media display due, among others, to pressure from VOX and pp, selling that it is a mobilization in favor of the prisoner Unai Parot.
The 31-kilometre march was ready for Saturday in Arrasate to demand the return home of prisoners, exiles and deportees, and the end of the exceptional situation of Unai Parot. "We would do a disservice to our people if we were silent about this violation of rights, using the false argument that it is more painful for the victims," they said at a press conference. Understanding that it is time to seek spaces for understanding, they do not want to give an option to "positions that, for political or ideological purposes, are enemies, distorts and manipulate".
For this reason, they have called for "not giving time" to "those who wanted to come to provoke confrontations" in Arrasate - PP and Vox have promoted events on Saturday in Arrasate-, to suspend mobilisation and to convene concentrations in all peoples with the same motto: - No to life imprisonment! Human Law, coexistence, solution".
