Spanish police using rubber balls |
People who were injured in the last general strike (26 of September) are going to denounce the spanish police actuations. Dozens of people were injured the past 26 when spanish police attacked demonstrators in Iruña (capital of Nafarroa). But only a few of them are going to denounce. As a rule, police have impunity in all the cases. There were also more injured in Atarrabia (Nafarroa), Gasteiz (Araba), Bilbo (Bizkaia) etc. Policemen used batons and rubber balls to attack demonstrators in all along Basque country.

Cuts in education, repression of students,
firings of teachers, attacks against basque culture and language (euskera) etc.
12 of October is Spanish National day and "Ikasle Abertzaleak" is going to prepare "popular schools", where students and teachers can learn more about basque culture and alternatives to the capitalist system.

Marylise Lebranchu |

Iparralde (north basque country) do not have political autonomy (like in Euskadi and Nafarroa) and recently dozens of councilors (including french political parties like PSF and UMP) have required a new politic status for iparralde. French government is now debating, but Marylise Lebranchu (french minister) have said that maybe there are not going to be changes in politic status of iparralde. French state is strongly centralist and "abertzale" (pro-independence) of iparralde think that a autonomy can be the first step to achieve independence.
