The mayor of Tuleda, Alejandro Toquero, condemned the act and said that “we are proud to be Navarrese and Spanish.”
Several members of the youth of “Sortu”, a left-wing “abertzale” party, vandalized and demolished the last Osborne bull in Navarre who was in Tuleda.
The vandals justified their movement to put an end to “symbols that promote Spanishism” with the aim of publicize the event next Saturday in the town of Tafalla, where Bildu governs.
The mayor of Tuleda, Alejandro Toquero, requested help from the government and expressed his rejection of the acts of vandalism committed by those he described as “Bildu’s puppies”. “No one will come to Tudela to tell us what we want to be because We are proud to be Navarrese and Spanish», expressed the councilor, who experienced various conflicts with young people.
On their social networks, where they posted a video online showing the demolition of the metal structure, the young people took responsibility for their action. “Today we throw away the Toro de Tudela. No we want symbols that exalt Spanishness“We will continue to demand the anti-fascist Basque Country as a whole,” expressed the organization.
