  • Polls indicate an advantage for EH Bildu in the upcoming Basque elections, leading the PNV and the Socialist Party to intensify their fear strategy against the abertzale left.
  • Both the PNV and the PSOE have contributed to EH Bildu's growing influence through a whitewashing policy, led by former ETA member Arnaldo Otegi.
  • President Pedro Sánchez recognizes EH Bildu's democratic legitimacy in Navarre and throughout Spain, but such recognition is questioned for the Basque Country.
  • A possible EH Bildu victory, thanks to the help of Podemos, could jeopardize the absolute majority of the PNV-PSE agreement.
  • The PP, potentially increase their support by almost 2 points, presents itself as the only alternative to Sánchez's bloc in the Basque Country.

Conclusion: Electoral dynamics show a tendency towards political force diversification, with EH Bildu emerging as a key player, which could reshape the political landscape of the Basque Country and have implications for all of Spain.
