The event was attended by CHA’s municipal and county spokesperson, Laura Climente; the secretary of CHA-Alto Aragón, José Ramón Ceresuela; and the party’s secretary general, Verónica Villagrasa.
FOUR DECADES OF WORK IN JACETANIA
Climente highlighted the work carried out by CHA over the past 40 years from local councils and alongside residents of the region. The spokesperson defended the need to maintain towns with residents, public services and opportunities for young people.
“Forty years on, we remain clear that Jacetania’s future depends on having vibrant towns, sustainable policies for our territory, quality public services and opportunities so that young people can stay or return and build their lives here,” she said.
Ceresuela, for his part, focused on CHA’s role in Alto Aragón and on the participation of residents of the region’s counties in decisions related to the territory and its resources.
The secretary of CHA-Alto Aragón defended a development model capable of creating jobs and opportunities in the counties of Alto Aragón while taking into account the needs of those who live and work there.
CHA SEEKS TO BECOME AN ALTERNATIVE TO THE AZCÓN GOVERNMENT
During her speech, Verónica Villagrasa championed CHA’s 40 years as a political project created to defend a distinct voice for Aragón from the left. “CHA wants to be the alternative to the Azcón Government, and from Aragonese nationalism and the left, we will build the political change Aragón needs,” she said.
The party’s secretary general criticized the regional government’s policies and argued that public services, land, water and energy should, in her view, be geared towards generating well-being and opportunities for the people of Aragón. Villagrasa therefore called for a change in political priorities and said CHA would work to offer an alternative to the current Government of Aragón.
