what we're going through
in both the PP and the PSOE.

1:11:03
At present, the Popular Party,
1:11:06
often with the connivance
of the Socialist Party,

1:11:09
the party to which I belong,
1:11:12
demands a unity of criteria.
1:11:15
They demand to have you
at their disposal

1:11:18
under any condition.
1:11:20
They demand that you should be
a political argument

1:11:24
rather than a person with rights
and freedom of opinion.

There's a hidden Basque Country
1:11:55
where cars explode
and councilors are assassinated,

1:11:59
and judges, politicians
and journalists are threatened

1:12:02
along with lawyers
and university professors.

1:12:05
I've got a bodyguard because
I appeared on ETA's lists.

1:12:09
The commando group
was intending to kill me

1:12:12
in my office at the university.
1:12:14
First of all, it's:
Get out of here.

1:12:17
We're watching you.
1:12:20
You're pro-Spanish...
All that sort of thing.

1:12:24
The Ertzaintza
got in touch with me

1:12:28
and they gave me protection.
1:12:31
It's a real pain
living with a bodyguard.

1:12:34
My colleagues, who I'm sure
are very fond of me,

1:12:38
try to avoid meeting with me.
1:12:40
When your family or friends
invite you to dinner

1:12:44
you exclude yourself,
you don't go.

1:12:46
For me, the worst
of all nightmares

1:12:49
would be that one day
they put a bomb in my car

1:12:52
and that I was driving it
with my wife beside me.

1:12:55
Our children would be orphaned.
1:12:57
That is my worst nightmare.
