Political liaison Explanation: Looks like you left off the 政, as the full term is 政治的窓口. And in your context, it clearly refers to a person, so "liaison" would be a perfect fit, IMO.

political contact Explanation: I propose this translation since informal contact is noted in source texts. see: http://www.jsonline.com/blogs/news/92137824.html as an example of how to use. |

political wing Explanation: ---- Although 窓口 is generally "contact" or even "liason" as Shannon mentions, in this case 政治的窓口 is most often expressed in articles on the subject as "political wing." This Batasuna political wing of the ETA proposes ceasefires, etc. Please see websites below: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ETA Batasuna's political status has been a very controversial issue. It was considered to be the political wing of ETA. Moreover, after the investigations on the nature of the relationship between Batasuna and ETA by Judge Baltasar Garzón, who suspended the activities of the political organisation and ordered police to shut down its headquarters , the Supreme Court of Spain finally declared Batasuna illegal on March 18, 2003. The court considered proven that Batasuna had links with ETA and that it constituted in fact part of ETA's structure. In 2003 the Constitutional Tribunal upheld the legality of the law. However, the party itself denies to be the political wing of ETA, despite the fact that double membership – simultaneous or alternative – between Batasuna and ETA is often recorded, such as with the cases of prominent Batasuna leaders like Josu Ternera, Arnaldo Otegi, Jon Salaberria and others. http://www.presseurop.eu/en/content/article/45741-european-c... The European Human Rights Court has confirmed the ban of Batasuna,the political wing of the terrorist group ETA. Spanish dailies are rather happy about this decision, which puts a spanner in the works of radical Basque nationalism. The Basque press, on the other hand, is more measured. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/europe/spain/14052... Eta political wing warns of reprisals if it is banned Batasuna, the political wing of the Basque separatist organisation Eta, has given warning of trouble when the authorities enforce a ban on its activities. http://www.barcelonareporter.com/index.php?/news/comments/et... ETA ceasefire proposed by political wing The political wing of the militant Basque separatist group ETA has urged the organization to declare a ceasefire in its conflict with the Spanish state, the Basque newspaper El Correo reported Friday.
