Interior Minister Fernando Grande-Marlaska has described as “Bulo” the journalistic information that assured that nine of those identified by the police during the protests on the last day of the Vuelta had a history for “Kale Borroka” and that the Popular Party has used to attack the government.
“A means of communication (in reference to El Mundo) said that people who had a history of 'Kale Borroka' had been identified, which is terrorism. He refused. And it is false. And today they continue to erre that Erre and yesterday you echoed. That is a bul. country, ”said Marlaska during his appearance in the Plenary of Congress for this summer's fires.
The Popular Party had uploaded a step in its criticisms of the government for the protests during the last day of the Tour of Spain in Madrid and has stated that the government is behind “a plot to sabotage the stage.”
In replica's turn, Marlaska recalled his stage as a judge in the Basque Country and his past as “victim of ETA” and added that it seems of “absolute gravity” comparing the altercations last Sunday in Madrid with the violence lived in the Basque Country when the terrorist organization existed.
Marlaska has said that in Madrid “some fences fell” and recalled that in Euskadi buses were burned with users of public transport inside. “Did there be something of that on Sunday? Please, do not frivolize violence,” he added. “I am proud of state security forces that acted with professionalism and a society that manifests itself and that learned a lot from barbarism and the unreasonableness of ETA terrorism,” he continued.
From the Ana Vázquez gallery he had launched the question: “Were there a government plot to sabotage the return?” The PP deputy started from information that the Government delegate in Madrid, Francisco Martín, appeared at the Operational Coordination Center on Sunday, from which the security device of the day was managed. Among the powers of the Government delegate is the police coordination in the Community of Madrid and both the Chief of Police and the Colonel of the Civil Guard report any significant novelty to the Government delegates.
Vázquez has warned that his party will request the transcription of the conversations held at the coordination center last Sunday. In his turn of response, Marlaska has alluded to the judicial investigation for those killed during the Dana in Valencia and has replied: “I would ask him to be easy to have the transcripts of the Cecopi of Valencia that I do not know if they are even within the reach of the judicial authority that has requested them.”
In his initial speech, Ana Vázquez has said that the government “gagged” the police during the protests and that Spain has become the “laughing of the world” after the last stage of the Vuelta had to suspend for the proportions and in protest in the participation of an Israeli team in the competition.
On the “genocide”: “Do we wait for the final sentence to talk about 'rape'?”
Marlaska has not referred to Sunday's day in his initial speech and limited himself to talking about the fires. But in his reply to the spokesmen he has not avoided the matter. He has even referred to the intervention of Alberto Núñez Feijóo during the plenary. “Lord Feijóo's incoherence that did not know how to leave,” he said.
“Count once a genocide. Should we expect what the International Criminal Court says? When we talk about a violation, sexual assault, do we wait for a firm sentence? Do we do it when there is an alleged embezzlement of public funds?” He has thrown him into the PP.
The minister has appeared to explain the work of the central administration during the fires of this summer and has exposed the figures that he had already provided to the groups during his speech in the Interior Commission. In Vox's turn, his spokesman Vicente Gil-Lázaro has not reduced the contest. “In any normal democracy you would not have uploaded to this tribune because I would have had to resign because of the serious episodes of street terrorism,” said Marlaska.
Gil-Lázaro has repeated the accusation that the president of the Government, Pedro Sánchez, “encouraged the algaradas.” “They are a danger and shame for Spain,” he added. The Socialist Group has requested, and this was agreed by the first vice president of the Congress, Alfonso Gómez de Celis, who withdraw the insults of Gil-Robles.
We can ask to investigate police action
We can also criticized the government but for police action. Martina Valverde, who has acted today as spokesman for the purple, has said that he was in the protest and that he saw how riot agents threw fences to protesters and spread pepper gas.
The minister has alluded to that police action. “I feel proud, as Interior Minister, of the State Security Forces and Bodies and I wish the immediate restoration of the 23 policemen who were injured on Sunday. I feel proud of some police officers who acted in parameters of necessity and suitable suitability the right of demonstration, giving security to the protesters and the citizens who tried to go to see the end of the stage and the cyclists. Be mobilizes a situation such as genocide in Gaza, ”said Marlaska in his response to the first intervention of spokesmen.
The PP spokeswoman seemed that Marlaska's words protect the violent. “I am ashamed that an Interior Minister supports the violent than the State Security Forces and Bodies. Now he tells us that the fences fell, he only needs to say that the police were self -lined. Of Kale Borroka you know a lot because it is with those who agree every week, those of Bildu and with those who threw cobblestones to the police in Catalonia while you were taking a gin.
The spokeswoman for Podemos, on the other hand, has insisted on the difference in police treatment and the “elegance” shown by the agents against “the fascists and racist” of Torre Pacheco and the forcefulness with the proportorous protesters. Martina Velarde has demanded from the minister an investigation into police action in Madrid.
