The objective of these conferences is to denounce Zapatero’s policy of political negotiation with the terrorist group ETA, which now includes the legalization of Bildu, their political arm, thus giving them access to power in Basque institutions, especially in Guipúzcoa. This is not how the Gregorio Ordóñez Foundation envisions the group being defeated and these conferences are being held to protest against the situation and to propose alternative methods for bringing about the end of ETA.
