El Gobierno acepta considerar víctimas a las comunidades de montes vecinales expropiadas por el franquismo

The Spanish government has agreed to consider the communities of communal forests ('montes vecinales en mano común') that were seized, occupied, or expropriated by the State Forest Heritage during the Franco regime as victims of the dictatorship. This decision allows these communities to seek recognition and potential redress for the state-led interventions that occurred during the Francoist era.

This policy shift addresses long-standing claims regarding the forced appropriation of communal land. By classifying these entities as victims, the government acknowledges the historical impact of state actions on communal property rights and provides a formal framework for addressing grievances related to the dictatorship's land management policies.
