I am clear about the differences between the different ways of doing things between the territories, particularly in carrying out institutional decisions. It would be a matter of going too far, of deducing that they are either like that or otherwise. It bothers me to make these kinds of distinctions that are becoming more and more internalized.
Although some seem obvious, I find it difficult to enumerate the differences between the different forms of all territories. Even if there is one who systematizes all the differences that we have between us, it would be no more than a scapegoat that would lead us from chaos to nothing.
It's easier to start with a list of elements that we share and that equate us, long as short. That would be one of the elements that makes us citizens, that equality is what helps us to make the community a nation. There is the Basque country, a historical agglutinant of centuries and, in recent decades, in the times of the greatest political and administrative unity in our history, an essential engine and a soul indivisible so far.
The unified Basque country has recognized and granted us citizenship, without it would be ruined our habitats and dialects that have acquired a surprising prestige today
The Basque Batua has recognized and granted us citizenship, without it would be ruined our habitats and dialects that have acquired an amazing prestige today. They would be nothing more than a concrete and unrecoverable historical memory, exposing a poor and deplorable testimony of inculture. That's why I'm nervous about trying to write dialects that have no feet, no head, no ruler. For a long time, invented in linguistics, I don't know if these are sessions that start from ignorance or that lead to ignorance.
It is a very worrying endeavour when it comes from institutions or public responsibilities, both political and in any other way, of people. I'm scared of that vast variety of language that wants to be Biscayan, because I don't know what devil comes beyond a false honesty. Why? By hidden rules, Biscayan political representatives, with the exception of the honourable actions of Mr Lehendakari and Mr Beumer. Erkoreka, we have to touch the Dabe, the Deutu or the Dinoe. Some even make a gesture of recovering a language that has never been theirs.
The counsellor has said that he has made available to a Biscayan the responsibility for a linguistic policy that has so far always been Gipuzkoan. I would accept you if the argument is that the name should be critical of that linguistic by-pass. Although in my time I had been reassured by the fear of destruction that could have been caused by the backs of the party authorities, we have not lost the intention to continue saying, eating or bringing home.

We Basques move our feet behind the witness of Korrika to proclaim that we want to survive as a Basque people in favor of our language, with the aim of the Basque Country we desire.

And for another year, the unions have organized prefabricated strikes for us. And we, individually, will decide whether or not to join the strike, without the need for any assembly at the school.
The strike model that I was taught is no longer in vogue, it seems. In my... [+]
Life surrounds everything, it is limited and fragile. To live good lives, it seems to me that the body knows what to do, while the mind, although it knows (when it is well informed), often sees the body deliberately silence. In this silence the mind opens itself to relations... [+]

It is the habit of making decisions that will change our lives with the beginning of the new year. We make lists on three points: one, more sports practice; two, seeing old friends more often; three, going back to Iceland, real and metaphorically. As the months go by, we realize... [+]

Since Benito Lertxundi, who told us that he will leave the scenes for ever, we have been there for several weeks, and since then many of us have felt orphans in one way or another, with a sense of loss or abandonment, sad. To Iruindarro, at least, we will remain forever honored... [+]
There are three knots that complicate our coexistence in the Basques, and for many years, despite our patience and determination, we are unable to break free from these ties. There are at least three knots of the moment: prisoners, Basque, immigrants.
With the new year we are... [+]
Today, January 21, is a day to remember and reflect on an interesting ephemeris of our recent history. It is 50 years since the lockdown of 47 workers from Potase in Navarre. This lockdown, which lasted fifteen days, caused a general strike in Navarre, the Department of the... [+]
A couple of weeks ago, a number of data from Norway was published. In this country of Northern Europe electric cars have predominated, being the Tesla brand the most sold, with 90% of recyclable energy consumed there. On the contrary, Norwegian public enterprises have no problem... [+]
These were my last words when we left, held hand in your deep breathing sleep. Your heart stayed forever without a special, simple, dignified pain. As you want and demand. How we want and respect.

Today, the voices of women and children remain within a culture that delegitimizes their voices, silencing their experiences, within a system aimed at minimizing or ignoring their basic rights and needs. A media example of this problem is the case of Juana Rivas, but her story... [+]
