The former president Jose Maria Aznar He was the guest of honor at the OKBALEARES 3rd anniversary gala which was held this Thursday in Palma de Mallorca. Aznar warned very clearly against “a process of deconstruction that begins with the question of whether Spain is a nation.” Aznar was categorical: “They want to make it a state, which is historically nonsense. Spain is not a plurinational state, it is not a camp. Spain is one of the most historically significant nations in the world.
“You are told that the democratic transition has original stains and that we must legitimize the republican identity before the civil war. This puts an end to the Constitution of 78. When the President of the Government goes to Barcelona to meet the President of Parliament, what he says is that Catalonia is a nation. The same thing happens with the Basque Country. It started a long time ago, when Zapatero came to replace me. The concept of Spain is not debatable and is enshrined in the Constitution,” Aznar explained.
The former president recalled all the attacks on institutions that Pedro Sánchez committed with impunity and predicted “without a doubt” that he would try to organize two referendums. “First the crime of sedition is eliminated, then the pardons, now the law of amnesty and the transfer of power to Bildu. What remains now, after this? Two things. The self-determination consultation and the consultation for the head of state. It will not be legally binding, but it will be politically inevitable. Then there will be the referendum on the head of state, and I believe that if they can, it will take place in this legislature. There will be difficulties in implementation, but these measures have already been taken and defined,” he said.
