The spokespersons of the parliamentary groups of the Congress of Deputies will star this Thursday on RTVE in the second debate of the 23J general elections. Patxi López (PSOE), Cuca Gamarra (PP), Iván Espinosa de los Monteros (Vox), Aina Vidal (Sumar), Gabriel Rufián (ERC), Aitor Esteban (PNV) and Oskar Matute (EH Bildu) will be in charge of exposing their programs, demands or red lines.
The parliamentary spokespersons will have almost 18 minutes to debate, with opening and closing shifts for each block (economy; social policies; territorial policy; and state and post-electoral pacts) already established by lottery. They will also have the so-called final golden minute to ask for the vote and justify it.
The pacts, to the left and to the right, will once again focus a good part of the debate between the parliamentary spokesmen. The PSOE will continue with its strategy of influencing the return to the past that the PP pacts with Vox entail, while the right-wing formations will warn of the support that the socialists and Sumar could seek with the Basque and Catalan independentistas.
Vox could direct its attacks towards a PP that denies agreeing with them, in addition to criticizing the parliamentary pacts of the Socialists with EH Bildu, which it considers to be the political arm of ETA. In the case of ERC, he will ask Sumar to take a position on a possible self-determination referendum in Catalonia.
A meeting at Estudio 6 in Prado del Rey that will be moderated by the journalist Xabier Fortes, broadcast with subtitles and in sign language and that takes place three days after the face-to-face between the candidate and Prime Minister, Pedro Sánchez, and the leader of the PP, Alberto Núñez Feijóo.
The debate between the spokespersons of the parliamentary groups of the Congress of Deputies will be held this Thursday, July 13, on RTVE, starting at 10:00 p.m. The meeting will be broadcast live on La 1, Canal 24 Horas, TVE Internacional, Radio Nacional, Radio 5, Radio Exterior, the RTVE.es website and the RTVE Play platform. In addition, it can be followed live through the La Vanguardia website.
