After this Thursday's meeting between the Lehendakari and the Basque parties to debate the date of the regional elections, Gorrotxategi has declared that "this is not the time to debate the elections," and he hopes that the Lehendakari, Iñigo Urkullu, "will case of what the second and third forces of Euskadi (EH Bildu and Podemos, respectively) have told you today ".
"This is not the time to call elections, but the time for bold decisions," he reiterated, to warn that, "with a social, economic and health crisis, we cannot afford to take a wrong step."
In this sense, highlighted that the debate on the elections should take place after the end of the de-escalation process and, meanwhile, all the political forces and social agents should meet "to concentrate work on measures to overcome the crisis" .
Miren Gorrotxategi recalled that his training has been proposing "an alliance for the Basque Country" for a long time, in which institutions, political parties, social partners, the academic world and research "can maintain a dialogue in which one hears talk of crash plans and reconstruction ".
The leader of Elkarrekin Podemos-IU has proposed that "far-reaching measures be taken as fiscal reforms that may contemplate, for example, a tax on large fortunes, or in which we guarantee that all aid to companies will go entirely or exclusively for those who have their registered office here. "
LEGAL REPORT
On the other hand, he has referred to the aspects of the current legal report, in which he disagrees with the previous one, and which now proposes that a date be set for the elections and an alternative in case there is a outbreak of the coronavirus, and that the electoral process do not start from scratch, but resume.
In this sense, he believes that the solution proposed by Urkullu "was already rejected in the previous report because it does not have a solid legal basis and generates many uncertainties."
