Spain: Authorities Worry About ETA Summer Violence
By Larry Habegger | Permalink |In the past few weeks the Basque separatist group ETA has assassinated a former politician and detonated a car bomb outside a police station in Calahorra in northern Spain, raising fears among security officials that the group may be planning attacks on tourist areas this summer. The concern arises from an assessment that ETA is trying to pressure the government of Jose Zapatero to seek a peace deal, something that Zapatero did in his first term but failed when ETA broke its truce in Dec. 2006. ETA has bombed tourist areas in the past, injuring 13 people in 2003 in bombings in Alicante and Benidorm.
