Euzkadi (newspaper)
Euzkadi was a daily newspaper published in Bilbao . The first edition appeared on February 1, 1913.
Euzkadi published texts in both Basque and Spanish and employed an editor-in-chief for each language. The first editor-in-chief of the Basque Country was the writer Evaristo Kirikiño Bustintza .
One of the Basque nationalist journalists who wrote for the newspaper was Manuel Aznar Zubigaray , who later became a Falangist . He was the grandfather of the future Spanish Prime Minister José María Aznar .
After a split in the Basque Nationalist Party , Euzkadi supported the Comunión Nacionalista Vasca branch ("Basque Nationalist Community") in 1921 .
In June 1937, during the Spanish Civil War , after the “national” troops occupied Bilbao, Euzkadi was suspended and the premises were offered to El Correo Español , which was then the Spanish newspaper Falange.
However, the Basque nationalist refugees continued to publish Euzkadi in Barcelona in 1938 and 1939.
