The President of the Valencian Government popular Carlos Mazón will not follow in the footsteps of the new government of Castilla-Leónwho on September 25 decided to overthrow, with his votes and those of the PSOE, the Law of Concord which had been previously agreed with Vox. In the case of the Valencian Law of Concord, Mazón was convinced that the government of socialist Pedro Sánchez “will be ready to listen to reason regarding the protection of already existing rights and expansion of those that did not yet have them», which is the spirit of the Valencian text.
Carlos Mazón recalled that: “If Miguel Angel Blanco If he had been born in Castellón, with the previous law he would not have been declared a victim of political violence. Which is scandalous from a human rights point of view. With this law, yes.
Miguel Ángel Blanco was a Popular Party councilor born in the Biscay town of Ermua. On July 10, 1997, he was kidnapped by the terrorist group ETA. Three days after his kidnapping, He was killed by a gunshot to the back of the head.. He was 29 years old.
With reference to Miguel Ángel Blanco, Carlos Mazón reiterated what had already been declared to the Valencian Cortes on July 11, when he defended that the Valencian law of concord includes as victims of political violence those of the terrorist group ETA. This is the case of Miguel Ángel Blanco.
The Valencian president showed himself willing to “dialogue and explain things” with the government, because “there are perhaps people who have not understood it well”. And, at best, there are people who did not want to understand“.
In an argument that constitutes a clear warning to the executive of Pedro Sánchez, Mazón declared that he was “sure” that the approach of the Spanish government “is made to us in good faith, without seeking any political gain and without intention of ‘to intervene “. in our self-government nor in the full legislative capacity of the Valencian Cortes which approve our Statute“.
In the same sense, the Valencian president reiterated that “we will be delighted to tell them once again” to the Spanish government that “the consolidation of acquired rights, the protection of adequate treatment for all victims of the Franco regime is perfectly compatible with the extension of rights to other victims of political violence“.
