Above the hindrances of the Town Hall of Tudela, the day against zoning is celebrated on Saturday
- On 22 October the local initiatives Errigora, Ageraldia and Hordago, focused on the Basque country, have organized a full day programme, but on Thursday they announced that due to the inconvenience of the city council they will not be able to perform the planned concert of unchecks. However, at 17:30 hours the streets of Tudela will be moved to the demonstration, just before the Zoning. Bera euskara bizi dela! under the slogan.
Saturday will be the meeting day of the Euskaltzales of Nafarroa Hegoalde and Erdialdea, and among them they have organized various activities to deal with zoning. La Rota has prepared in the morning an auzolan in Ablitas, as every year, to complete the stuffed baskets with the harvest of the Navarros producers. In the afternoon, the appointment will be in Tudela, as the Hordago popular initiative has organised a demonstration to eliminate zoning and demand the rights of Navarros. In addition to individuals, various actors, political groups and trade unions have joined the demonstration.
He then announced the concert of Electrotxaranga and Descontrols, but on Thursday they announced that with the obstacles of the Town Hall of Tudela there are no conditions for a “multitudinous, joyful and participative concert”. The three initiatives have offered a press conference in collaboration with the Council of Euskalgintza and the Observatory on Linguistic Rights, denouncing that they are not the only ones who have suffered the inconvenience of the city council to organize cultural events. They point out that they have been in a lengthy licensing process since May, but that the City Council has only put obstacles in the way.
“Dolido yes, but we don’t regret this. Because in spring, with the right conditions, we will celebrate the concert. Because the Basque people in Tudela and Ribera want it and we consider it necessary. It will be multitudinous, joyful and participative; the Euskaltzales initiative and open to all those who do not have Euskera phobia”, they stress.
Agents stress that this is the time for "merger": "It is time that large sections of the South and Centre of Navarre reconciled with the Basque Country and gathered new differences for the Basque country." Zoning is going to be done, not only by the Basques, but by any citizen who has a favourable attitude towards the Basque country; Hordago aims to have a comprehensive initiative to defend the rights of citizens. For this reason, the motto is also addressed to all the people of the south and central of Navarra:Bera euskara bizi dela! They will claim aloud in Tudela.
