From 10th to 12th July 1997, millions of Spaniards followed the chronicle of the murder foretold of a 29-year-old councillor for the Popular Party in Ermua (Basque Country) who was taken from his family and murdered by ETA with no compassion, ignoring the demands of a whole country sick of the gang of murderers. The country showed, together with its government, the institutions and all the politicians except Herri Batasuna’s members, how to be united to try to save the life of Miguel Ángel Blanco, showing its democratic firmness and not giving in to the demands of the terrorists.
