Oskar Matute (Barakaldo, Bizkaia, 1972) became something similar to a revelation for many of the viewers of the debate for seven that public radio and television organized this week with the spokespersons of the main parliamentary groups in Congress. With a long political career behind him in Euskadi, first in Ezker Batua-Berdeak (Basque leader of Izquierda Unida) and then in Alternatiba, Matute has always positioned himself publicly and expressly against the violence of the terrorist group ETA. During the debate, he effusively recalled his participation in the acts of revulsion for the kidnapping and murder of Miguel Ángel Blanco, something that he confesses surprises him because it was new to many people.
