It is a deeply undemocratic and unconstitutional decision, as indicated by the Union of Judges and Prosecutors, since it violates the core of the constitutional right to assembly (Article 11), imposing a total unauthorized suspension of freedom of assembly and not just a specific one. local restriction. However, this general prohibition is imposed only under conditions of a state of siege (Article 48 of the Constitution) and under strictly limited and limited conditions. In no case can it be justified for reasons of protection of public health. After all, the leaders of the workers’ and popular movement have shown in practice that they are mobilizing by taking all necessary protective measures. It is not even covered by the reactionary law on demonstrations, which explicitly excludes May Day and November 17 demonstrations from being announced, banned or restricted. Democratic rights and popular freedoms are a conquest of the workers’ and popular movement. The government has a great responsibility in this development. “Even now, he has to withdraw the unacceptable decision.”
