The Royal Academy of Valencian Culture, Lo Rat Penat, the Mercantile Athenaeum of Valencia and the Royal Valencian Society of Agriculture have promoted the manifesto ‘No als Pasos Catalans’ that they will take to the Upper House
The People’s Party He is not willing to stop fighting to avoid the identification of the Valencian Community as part of the so-called ‘Pasos Catalans’ and he is going to have all the cultural entities that defend Valencian signs at his side. The Royal Academy of Valencian Culture, Lo Rat Penatthe Mercantile Athenaeum of Valencia and the Royal Valencian Society of Agriculture have promoted the manifesto ‘No als Pasos Catalans’ for which they have launched themselves to gather adhesions, a task in which they will have the support of the popular. The objective is, according to the letter, to stop the “continuous attacks perpetrated once morest the personality and the constitutional and statutory legal framework of the Valencian people.”
Since the arrival of Carlos Mazn to the presidency of the PPCV, the denunciation of Catalanism and the reinforcement of its links with traditional sectors of cultural Valencianism have once once more become strong in the party’s discourse. In November, the PP took the first step in that campaign to which civil society joined yesterday, demanding that the Senate table that initiatives referring to the Valencian Community as “Pas Valenci” or “Pasos Catalans”. Dismissed this request and the appeal filed by the popular senators, with the votes of PSOE and PNV, they did not rule out the judicial route on understanding that these denominations violate the first article of the Autonomous Statutewhich includes the term Comunitat Valenciana as the only official denomination.
However, before going to court they have gone to the sector of civil society that has traditionally been belligerent with these denominations and have joined their manifesto denouncing the “complicit silence” of Puig, the Consell and mayors of Comproms and PSPV.
The Royal Academy of Valencian Culture (RACV), Lo Rat Penat, the Mercantile Athenaeum of Valencia and the Royal Valencian Society of Agriculture yesterday held a act of “Valencianist reaffirmation” before the “continuous attacks perpetrated once morest the personality and the constitutional and statutory legal framework of the Valencian people”. The last straw, they say, that of the Senate Table.
The presidents of the entities, José Luis Manglano, Enric Esteve, Carmen de Rosa and Manuel Sánchez-Luengo were the first to sign a manifesto in which they refuse “to remain silent in the face of this new aggression once morest our historical and cultural identity, for part of an institution that should watch over the rights of the Valencian people, safeguarding their differentiated personality”.
For this reason, they denounce the “stubborn attack that we suffer with the interference used by expansionist Catalanism, with the use of that false terminology, which is only due to attempts to distort the historical reality of the Kingdom of Valenciatoday statutorily called the Valencian Community, to its roots, its language and its signs of identity, subsuming it into a very different one, far removed from the historical, social, cultural, economic and linguistic reality of the Valencians who have always felt proud to be what we are: Valencians and Spaniards”.
The entities demand from the public authorities “respect for the clearly majority will of Valencians, contained in the Spanish Constitution and in our Statute of Autonomy, for our centuries-old history as Valencians, never Catalans; for our personality, our roots, our our signs of identity and our own and differentiated Valencian language, and integrated into that common project that has been Spain for more than 500 years”.
As pointed out by the jurist and academic Luis Miguel Romero Villafrancawhich has acted as a spokesperson for the promoting entities, “if Valencian civil society feels attacked by the most recalcitrant pan-Catalanism, and not protected by the public powers that should do so, it has the moral right and duty to defend oneself denouncing these attacks and demanding respect for our own identity as Valencians and Spaniards, for our history, culture, roots and signs of identity, and thus no one with more authority for this task than the four hundred-year-old entities that have stood out most in that defense from the same”.
In fact, the manifesto expressly attacks the Acdemia Valenciana de la Llengua (AVL) “which, having been statutorily created to defend “the singularity of the Valencian language”, has no qualms regarding signing agreements with the Institut d’Estudis Catalans and the Technical Commission of the University of Les Illes Balears to proclaim ‘the unity of our Catalan language'”
For its part, the PPCV has shown its adherence to the manifesto, as announced by its Deputy Secretary for Territory, Community and Culture, Mara Jos Ferrer San Segundo, who has announced that they “will actively participate in the campaign, extending that collection of adhesions to affiliates or sympathizers of the PP and to the residents of the entire Valencian Community who want to join this civic commitment”.
“The acceleration and escalation in the offensive of extension to our Community of the unconstitutional Catalan Countries has made necessary, and urgent, a civic, serene, committed and faithful response to the Valencians, which puts a stop to attacks, appropriations, manipulations and interference saying, loud and clear: enough is enough”, he proclaimed.
The ‘popular’ person in charge has criticized what she considers an “offensive that has been intensifying by authorities, official channels and satellites of the Generalitat de Catalunya, framed within the framework of the pro-independence process. “Not only do they not loyally defend the identity and interests of Valencians, but they also finance with subsidies, year following year, those who do not respect our autonomy and idiosyncrasy”, he denounced in reference to the aid that both the Generalitat and the City Council of Valencia are granted to associations that defend the unity of the language.
