The far-rightists who wear hoods and target the Police have legal recognition in the Home Office. The neo-Nazi group Núcleo Nacional, composed mostly of young people, combines semi-clandestine staging and the dissemination of swastikas with its formal registration as an association before the ministry headed by Fernando Grande-Marlaska.
“Popular justice,” proclaimed Núcleo Nacional this Sunday from its account on X. The phrase was accompanied by images of the altercations recorded in Paiporta, where there were attempted assault against Pedro Sánchez, Carlos Mazón and the kings. “Spain has woken up. Sons of bitches,” they said in another publication.
The ultras, who They also spread another message under the motto “national palace to Pedro Sánchez“, have published several images of militants of that neo-Nazi organization in the areas affected by DANA.
As verified PublicNúcleo Nacional operates as a legal group under the protection of its registration in the National Registry of Associations, in charge of the Home Office. The group was formally registered on August 8 in the section of state-level associations that carry out “civic-political” activitieswith address on the lower left of number 10 Renedo Street in Valladolid.
As Interior explains on its website, the registration of an association in that registry “It brings various benefits.” Regarding the associates, in terms of patrimonial responsibility, “registration implies the separation between the patrimony of the association and the patrimony of the associates.”
Likewise, “both for the members themselves and for third parties who are related to the association, registration is a guarantee that the entity has been legally established“, emphasizes the ministry.
Regarding the procedure, Interior points out that, once the registration application is submitted, it opens “a resolution period is three months from the entry of the file in the General Subdirectorate of Associations, Archives and Documentation.” “After said time without registration having occurred, administrative silence will be understood positively“he explains.
This neo-Nazi group has called on its followers to gather on the 9th on Ferraz Street in Madrid, where they intend to revive the most violent protests against the PSOE and the Government. The spot launched by the ultras to publicize this act is full of images of confrontations with the National Police.
Likewise, among his publications on social networks there are images of swastikas and Francoist flags. Among its “objectives”, the group alludes to “the biological reality of racial characteristics of each town”.
“These characteristics are visible in the abilities of individuals, as well as in the cultural peculiarities between one people and another. We do not abhor biological structure of each townbut we respect and defend it, understanding these differences as the authentic diversity of this world,” they say.
Paths towards illegalization
In a response sent in December 2022 to the then senator of Compromís Carles Mulet –who had requested information about European Becoming, another Nazi group legalized as an association – the Ministry of the Interior alleged that could not “dissolve associations nor cancel the registry entries referring to them, since these are decisions whose jurisdiction is reserved to the judicial authority, as established by the Spanish Constitution itself.”
However, the Government hinted that there were ways to outlaw groups like Devenir European (or now Núcleo Nacional) under the protection of the Democratic Memory Law, that prevents the exaltation of the dictatorship and contempt for his victims.
As Interior explained, the Study and Analysis Commission that has been formed within that ministry to study “the application and effects of certain aspects of the new law” would be in charge of “preparing a regulatory draft” for the modification of the organic law regarding associations.
On October 8, Congress approved the taking into consideration of the legal reform of the law of associations proposed by the socialist parliamentary group with the votes in favor of all parties except for the far-right Vox, which voted against.
The initiative admitted for processing seeks to reform the organic law regulating the right of association with the objective of adapt it to the Democratic Memory lawand would include the apology of Francoism as a cause for dissolution.
