The president of the Xunta, Alfonso Rueda, wanted to commemorate Constitution Day this Saturday by emphasizing that the Magna Carta “recognizes territorial diversity and guarantees our government.”

Via a publication on the social network celebrated the current constitutional framework as “the agreement that made possible our coexistence in freedom, stability and progress.” The regional leader concluded his message by saying that “Galicia will continue to defend a plural Spain, with rights for all.”

The assessment of the Constitution made by the national spokesperson of the BNG on December 6 is radically opposed. Ana Pontón said “a new political status” for Galicia which guarantees “true” self-government free from any centralist interference.



The nationalist leader said “a new political status” for Galicia which guarantees a self-government “real and free from any centralist interference”.

For this, Pontón asked “overcoming” the framework of a Constitution “inherited from the Franco regime” during an act of commemoration of the founding of the Galeguista Party on December 6, 1931 at the Panteón de Galegos Ilustres, during which homage was paid to the figure of Castelao.

During the Christmas lunch organized by the popular people of Curtis, the general secretary of the PPdeG, Paula Prado, established her party as “the only constitutionalist” of Galicia facing a BNG which “wants division and independence” and a PSOE which “violates daily” the Magna Carta.

For their part, the Government subdelegations in Galicia celebrated Constitution Day with institutional events in Lugo, A Coruña, Orense and Pontevedra, where joint appeals were made to active defense of democracy, fundamental rights, equality and coexistence.
