The OCB criticizes Prohens for not speaking language

According to the entity, the President of the Balearic Islands should have taken the opportunity to “bury the regressive measures” against Catalan carried out by the “anti-Mallorcan extreme right” at the start of the legislature.
Although the OCB assumes that Prohens has formally broken with its Vox partners – “but not by its own decision”, they add -, they consider that on a daily basis it is obvious that, at least in linguistic matters, ” » he continues, “hands and feet are de facto linked”.
With the 2025 regional budgets in mind, Llabrés proposed obtaining “sufficient resources” to enable the promotion of the social use of Catalan and guarantee its linguistic and cultural sustainability in the Balearic Islands.
