MEPs have received a letter from Batasuna, which states in English, ‘Regarding the negotiation between ETA and the Spanish and French states it will be them who decide all about the demilitarisation of the conflict’. This form of words is a bad sign, since, if the negotiations fail, the blame is already being laid at the doors of the Spanish and French states.
Les députés européens ont reçu une lettre de Batasuna, qui déclare en anglais: Regarding the negotiation between ETA and the Spanish and French states it will be them who decide all about the demilitarisation of the conflict. Cette formulation est un mauvais signe car, en cas d’échec des négociations, la faute est déjà quasi imputée aux États espagnol et français.
