Former MEP, Aralar

Aralar in Europe

Aralar criticizes the current European model. We call for a more social and democratic Europe, where its different villages work in spirit of cooperation. We want a Europe founded on the defence of welfare state and free from the clutches of neoliberalism. We also believe in a Europe where its stateless nations can freely and democratically decide their future within the Union.

The Union has provided countless benefits to citizens and has been particularly positive in terms of peace, development and democracy in the 20th century Europe of ward and totalitarianism.

At the difficult economic situation we are going through, with euroscepticism, racism and xenophobia arising, political parties, leaders and media spread messages not only against the Union but also its values. Thus, we propose we go back to promoting the Europe of values: equality, freedom, tolerance, democracy, human rights, solidarity and democratisation of the Union in the widest sense.
