The PNV has “firmly” condemned the launch of “firecrackers, eggs and stones” against an election event of the PP held in Hernani, underlining that, in Euskadi, “ideas are defended with words and at the ballot box.”
Through its profiles on social networks, the jeltzale party has expressed its rejection of the action recorded this Saturday, when a group of people broke into an event of the Basque PP in Hernani (Gipuzkoa), heckling the popular representatives while they were setting up an information table and throwing various objects, including firecrackers, eggs and stones.
Officers from the Ertzaintza have gone to the scene, and they proceeded to escort the members of the Partido Popular, without any injuries being reported. Later, an investigation was opened to clarify what happened and determine possible responsibilities.
The PNV has reiterated that “these attitudes have no place in our society” and has insisted that, in Euskadi, “ideas are defended with words and at the ballot box.” “Faced with intolerance, more democracy,” the nationalist formation has claimed.
