Arnaldo Otegi

Arnaldo Otegi is the General Coordinator of EH Bildu, a Basque political coalition. He is a prominent figure in Basque politics, particularly within the context of the Basque independence movement. Otegi is currently newsworthy because he recently reported receiving death threats, which were sent to EH Bildu's parliamentary group in December 2025. A court in Vitoria is investigating the threats. EH Bildu has linked these threats to criticism from a member of the 'Popular' party, De Andrés, who predicted the "political extermination" of the 'abertzale' left during a debate. Simultaneously, the Community of Madrid is holding talks about ETA in colleges, highlighting the ongoing relevance of ETA's history in Spain.
