This R&D provides resources on Spain and the ETA, a Basque nationalist and separatist group that has been deemed responsible for the deaths of more than 800 people since 1959. The United States and major European countries consider the ETA a terrorist group. The organization has an ongoing ceasefire that dates back to September 2010 and recently signaled that it was willing to begin disarming.
