This article is clearly biased:

Firstly, it speaks about Spanish nationalism. It said (I have already changed it) that Otegi is hated by Spanish nationalists. It isn’t true because Spanish nationalism doesn’t exist or is very small (in fact, Spanish nationalism hasn’t got parliamentarian representation).

Secondly, Lizarra’s declaration objective wasn’t the peace: it was just Basque Country’s independence. To get it, nationalists parties decided to create a nationalist alliance and betray most Basque People, who don’t wish the independence (in fact, in Navarre pro-independence people are around 20%; in French Basque Country around 10% and in Basque Autonomous Community around 50%).

Thirdly, Otegi was not sentenced to a year in prison because of criticizing King Juan Carlos II, but yes for accusing him of being a torturer. Obviously, freedom expression has a limit, and it’s a crime accusing people of being a torturer.

In short, this article is clearly biased and pro-Basque-nationalists.

PS: I apologized to you for my poor English.

have read the article and altered it slightly; i believe it now reads objectively.
