Today the investiture debate of the popular Alberto Núñez Feijóo was held, but the conditions of Junts to support a candidate for the presidency of the government are the same whether they are from the PP or the PSOE. “They have not changed, they are public and they are the same. We will see if someone is willing to accept and comply with them,” said the leader of the party in Madrid, Míriam Nogueras, who has referred at all times to the framework set by former president Carles Puigdemont, who leads the negotiations in your space. Specifically, to the conference he gave in Brussels on September 5.
Thus, Nogueras recalled the former president’s demand for a “historic commitment”, which includes amnesty and seeks a lasting resolution of the conflict with a vote on the horizon, even if it is “out of convenience and not out of conviction.” “We keep in mind the saying: the dog wags its tail, not for you, but for the bread,” summarized Nogueras, who stated that “today the conditions are not met” for that “great agreement” that they demand. “With the amnesty, the underlying problems are not resolved. The determining factor is the right to self-determination,” the JxCat deputy stressed later, who recalled article 92 of the Constitution to ensure that the Magna Carta does not create impediments.
Likewise, the post-convergent leader has once again distanced herself from any bloc in the Congress of Deputies, “whether there is an investiture or not.” “We said it in the campaign, our objective is not to reform Spain, nor to invest Spanish presidents,” she noted. “Our block was and is Catalonia,” she concluded.
In his speech there was also time to demand that Catalan can be spoken in the Lower House, to put his elbows out to gain a few meters in the race against ERC. “We said that nothing would be the same again if we were in the equation and we have already seen it,” noted Nogueras, who also took the opportunity to discredit PSOE deputy Óscar Puente for “invoking” the application of article 155 of the Constitution in October. of 2017 in the socialists’ response to the PP. “He hasn’t understood anything at all,” he reproached her.
Be that as it may, Puigdemont, who does not have a representative record, has been a protagonist in the chamber today. For this reason, the former president has gone so far as to ask the president of Congress to speak through Twitter for allusions. “The democratic anomaly is that you make permanent reference to a person who is not in the chamber and the immunity that all countries in the European Union respect, except the Kingdom of Spain, is not respected,” Nogueras snapped at Feijóo, who has evoked the former Convergència i Unió several times as a contrast to Junts during his reply and has taken the opportunity to ask the acting President of the Government, Pedro Sánchez, whether or not there will be an amnesty.
