In the midst of the celebration of activities on the occasion of the Princess of Asturias awards that will be presented this Friday, the 25th, in Oviedo, the parliamentary group of Call for Asturies-IU has requested the revocation of all the autonomous distinctions granted to Juan Carlos I His request is based on the “lack of exemplarity” of the emeritus king.
His spokesperson in the regional Parliament, role in the coup d’état of 23-F.
Call for Asturies will formally request that the autonomous distinctions be withdrawn from the king emeritus, both from the Government and from the General Board.
The tests
In an official statement, the party’s parliamentary spokesperson announces that it has demanded this morning that the documents referring to the coup d’état be declassified “in the face of increasingly solid evidence of its involvement in it.”
The deputy has assured that, for his parliamentary group, “it seems outrageous, never better put, that the king emeritus or the citizen Juan Carlos de Borbón, has any type of distinction or recognition in Asturias.”
“The withdrawal of these recognitions from Juan Carlos I responds to the scandals of all kinds in which the former Head of State has been involved: from an unclarified fortune for which he avoided paying taxes, to bed troubles paid for with charge to the reserved funds of the State,” the statement says.
These are two initiatives, the first in the form of a non-law proposal, and the second through a letter to the president of the General Meeting.
In the first, IU proposes to urge the Government of Asturias to “verify any distinctions granted by the Autonomous Community or the former Provincial Council of Oviedo, including the designations of infrastructure or public places that the previous head of State may have received, and to immediately begin the procedure for its revocation or replacement.”
The initiatives
The second takes advantage of article 18 of the Law of the Principality of Asturias regulating Honors and Distinctions, which establishes, in point 1, that the concession “may be revoked if, after the concession, the interested parties carry out acts or statements that make them unworthy of its ownership.”
Regarding the alleged connivance of Juan Carlos I with the rebels on 23-F, maximum transparency is necessary, especially in light of the new information that is coming out regarding his participation which, in Vegas’ opinion, is increasingly clear. .
“I also take this opportunity to ask that all documentation on 23-F be declassified once and for all,” he says.
In any case, Vegas wanted to congratulate all the winners in this edition of the Princess of Asturias Awards: “Precisely because we believe that they are very important awards, we believe that they do not have to be linked to a Royal House with a dubious past and with a king emeritus who certainly has not been exemplary in his work as Head of State,” he concludes.
