Lebranchu against an institutional structure for Iparralde

Lebranchu
According to naiz, the french minister Marylise Lebranchu (descentralization french minister) have rejected again the institutional structure for north basque country: "We are not going to create a structure for Basque Country". "The basque people want an special organization for the reason of being basques". The north basque country (Lapurdi, Behe Nafarroa and Zuberoa) have required to the french state recently a new structure to protect their interests: The language (Basque), economical development etc. That requirement have been supported by the different local political forces: EH Bai (coalition of pro-independence and leftist political parties in north basque country), UMP (right wing), PSF etc.

Despite the support of local politicians, the big political parties (UMP and PSF) have rejected the possibility of a new institutional structure for north basque country. Pro-independence movement, see that new structure as a step towards the independence.
