The PP will not give a truce to the PSOE in the five days of reflection that Pedro Sánchez has taken to decide his future, in which he does not rule out resigning from the presidency of the Government, and, like last night from the airwaves of a radio program, Alberto This morning, Núñez Feijóo attacked from the party headquarters on Génova Street against the abandonment of duties and the selfishness that, in his opinion, is revealed in the socialist leader’s letter to the citizens.
For Feijóo, who has claimed to be the leader of the “first party in Spain”, Sánchez’s decision is part of a “spectacle” that is not “worthy” of a president of a nation like Spain, which has engulfed citizens. into “stupor” and has subjected the country as a whole to “international embarrassment.”
This is, he insisted, a new example of the “corrosive policy of divide and conquer” that he attributes to Pedro Sánchez, whom he considers the “protagonist” of his own “scripts”, in which Spanish citizens are relegated to the role of “helper”. In this sense, Feijóo has accused the President of the Government of “thinking about himself” and “abandoning his obligations for his own interest and convenience.”
The head of the opposition has criticized the leader of the PSOE for pretending to be a “discontinuous permanent president” and evading, he has stressed, his responsibilities, for which he has demanded, once again, that he give explanations “immediately” of the corruption cases that affect his party, his government and his environment. “He has to do it, they met weeks ago and no answers have yet arrived. It must be for a reason,” he stated, leaving open the shadow of doubt about the true reasons for Pedro Sánchez’s decision.
In this sense, Feijóo has alluded, in addition to the alleged corruption plot in the purchase of masks during the pandemic that the National Court is investigating, to what may be behind the espionage suffered by the President of the Government and some of his ministers through the Pegasus program, as well as the complaint that certain companies obtained money through the “direct or indirect relationship with their environment”, that is, with Begoña Gómez, Sánchez’s wife, who has been accused of an alleged crime of drug trafficking. influences and corruption in business. “Behind this is not the opposition, but justice,” he argued.
The explanations that the PSOE has offered about these cases so far are insufficient for the PP, which sees the socialists in a dead end in which they are trying to “invent smear campaigns against everything” to overcome the crisis. , which is why, Feijóo explained, Sánchez alludes in his letter to the “evil right and extreme right” and “alleged façades in toga.” Strategy that turns the President of the Government, according to the PP leader, into the “spokesperson of the lawfare lobby, indistinguishable from his partners.”
“As he cannot govern by adhesion, he intends to do so out of compassion,” was the analysis that Feijóo has offered on the content of the president’s letter, which sees a “childish” attempt to “pit some against each other” to the detriment of the reality of Spain, in which they prevail, he has highlighted, the democratic values, the free press, justice and an institutional framework that make the country a “full democracy”, which is why he wanted to conclude with a “message of hope for the Spaniards” after what he considers “a regrettable time of decadence and breaking of consensus due to amnesty and corruption.” “Less propaganda and more management,” he promised.
“Many citizens do not feel represented by this and want to open a new stage. Spain deserves another president who acts with serenity and maturity and it will have it,” predicted Feijóo, for whom Sánchez “will be able to continue practicing cainisimo and overcome a question of trust.” because the independence movement has the business it has always dreamed of.”
“But in the end he will sink. He can prolong his agony, but he has not lived up to the country. The president cannot resign like someone who is going on a bridge because they do not agree with him. It is an adolescent spectacle. We must be held accountable. before citizens also when circumstances are uncomfortable. Look out for others instead of continually doing it for yourself,” Feijóo continued his statement, which concluded with an answer to the question that Sánchez asks in his letter: “Of course. It’s worth it, just not at any price or in any way. The question is whether it’s worth doing it like you, and I think there are more Spaniards than ever who share the answer with me,” he stated.
Thus, Feijóo believes that Pedro Sánchez will submit to a question of trust if he considers that it is what “best suits” his political career, although, in his opinion, “he can save it, because he has the interested trust of the independence parties, aware that they will never have a better ally than Pedro Sánchez”, whom they have described as the “weakest president of Spanish democracy”.
