The president of the Community and PP candidate for re-election, Isabel DÃaz Ayuso, has criticized the absence of the Prime Minister, Pedro Sánchez, at the Cervantes Prize ceremony this Monday in Alcalá de Henares and has slipped that it could be because the winner , Rafael Cadenas, defends “the freedom that his Bolivarian friends destroy.”
This is how she conveyed it during her speech before the Madrid businessmen, in a meeting at the CEIM headquarters, where she recalled that right after this meeting she would attend the award ceremony. The Madrid leader has emphasized that the Venezuelan poet is “recognized for his work and for being a brave man who has fought for freedom in Venezuela against the Chavista dictatorship.” “Unfortunately, the President of the Government will dishonor the greatest award of Spanish letters with his absence,” she continued.
Likewise, he has slipped that it may be that Sánchez does not go because he does not want to “congratulate a poet who defends the freedom that his Bolivarian friends destroy or because he fears the reaction of the people of Alcalá after his unfortunate statements yesterday in Fuenlabrada announcing that he wants to continue decapitalizing Madrid”.
“The Madrid authorities will be there together with the Minister of Culture who warns that, as long as they govern, there will be no new museum or cultural institution in the capital of Spain. Whatever the reason may be, the president’s attitude towards the Cervantes Prize and the Rey is unacceptable”, he remarked.
The Minister for Territorial Policy and Government spokesperson, Isabel RodrÃguez, justified Sánchez’s absence at the award ceremony because “she has other issues on the table” that capture her attention and about which there will be information soon.
This was stated by RodrÃguez in an interview on Antena 3 in which he pointed out that Sánchez has a “very intense agenda that not all of it is public” and that it corresponds to the preparation of other issues and aspects such as the next European presidency or attracting investment. for Spain.
When asked if Sánchez’s absence is due to the fact that he is preparing the parliamentary face-to-face that he will have in the Senate tomorrow with the leader of the Popular Party, Alberto Núñez Feijóo, the minister smiled and said that this debate is “the easiest †that the president has for this week. “The easiest thing for the President of the Government this week is precisely that debate because we are loaded with arguments from a government that proposes solutions in the face of a denialist and ash opposition,” the spokeswoman stressed.
RodrÃguez downplayed the absence of the president in the most important event of Spanish letters and delved into the fact that the Executive will be represented by the Minister of Culture and Sports, Miquel Iceta. All 24 hours after Sánchez, in an act of the PSOE, claimed culture and pointed out that his government has placed it “at the center of priorities.”
