Podemos Euskadi

Podemos Euskadi-Ahal Dugu Euskadi (Spanish: [poˈðemos], translated in English as "Basque Country We Can") is a left-wing to far-left political party in the Basque Autonomous Community in Spain. It is the Basque federation of the Spanish state-level ("national level") political party Podemos.

The political party Podemos Euskadi has a present (seats) in the Basque Parliament, in the legislatures of Biscay, Gipuzkoa and Álava (General Assemblies) and in different municipalities of the Basque Autonomous Community, including the three Basque capitals (Bilbao, Donostia and Vitoria-Gasteiz). It also had a presence in the Congress of Deputies (2015–2023) and in the Senate of Spain (2015–2019).

The current general coordinator is Richar Vaquero since 2024.

The political party is settled and rooted in Euskadi, with a Basqueist and pro-Basque position. The party has positioned itself and is publicly positioning itself in favor of the right to decide and of a self-determination referendum, agreed with the State, following the models of Scotland or Quebec. In the words of Miren Gorrotxategi, "we defend the referendum as a democratic instrument".

On the other hand, Podemos Euskadi has also been pro-Basque language, supporting the educational immersion model in Basque, in favor of making totally free the learning of the Basque or in favor of initiatives to boost the Basque.

This party (and the political space it represents) is usually called "Confederal Left", due to its defense of the right to decide, the self-determination referendum (Canadian model), the sovereignty of the Basque Country or the "national character" of the Basque Country (the "reality made up of social, linguistic, historical, economic and cultural ties" that make up the Basque Country or "Euskal Herria").

Podemos Euskadi is a member of The Left in the European Parliament – GUE/NGL.
