The Prince of Asturias, Don Felipe de Borbón, expressed today in San Sebastián his support and recognition to the role played by the businessmen, for their "contribution to the development" of the Basque society and expressed his "condemnation and rejection" to the "unacceptable terrorist threats and extortions", which "affect the free exercise of the rights and liberties of businessmen and citizens".
The Prince expressed his conviction on that “the total respect to our free frame of pacific democratic coexistence will allow us to continue increasing the economic and social progress of the Basque Country and of the rest of Spain". Besides, the heir to the Throne has taken advantage of his speech to show his "gratitude and honour" for being invited, along with the Princess, to this inauguration, since it gives them an opportunity "to be again in the Basque Country, a land that we so much want and admire". Thus, he expressed their "affection" to the Guipuzcoan people, evoking his stay in the Donostiarrian capital, during their honeymoon.
The Princes of Asturias showed today in San Sebastián their support and solidarity to the Basque businessmen, who have been harassed in the last weeks by the blackmail of ETA, with the exigency of the denominated 'revolutionary tax’.
In his first official visit to the Donostiarrian capital, where the royal couple inaugurated the new headquarters of the Chamber of Commerce, Industry and Navigation of Guipúzcoa, the Heir to the Throne expressed his wish on that the arrival of Peace may favour an economic improvement of the Basque Country. The words of the Prince of Asturias had a good welcome among the Basque businessmen, since they took place just one week after the president of Ceoe’s attack, who criticised last March 9th the endorsement made by the sectors of the Euskadi employer's association to the begining of a peace negotioation.
