Alberto Núñez Feijóo endorses the agreement reached in Valencia between the PP and Vox to govern Valencia and he endorses it, not because he wants to – in fact, he says that he aspires to govern without Vox – but because there was no other choice, due to the attitude of the PSOE .
Feijóo insists that if it were up to him, he would be in favor of handing over the government to the party with the most votes despite the fact that negotiations such as those in Burgos, Toledo, Guadalajara or Extremadura cast doubt on the fact that, at least the territorial leaders, who have been given freedom to agree on what suits them best, share that vision.
However, Feijóo assured, in an interview with Es.Radio that he does not accept lessons from the PSOE in this matter “after having agreed with the most radical left-wing populism in Europe, such as the PCE, Podemos and Sumar” and above all, ” after his pacts with the Catalan separatists and when he has governed with the support of Bildu”, so “no legitimacy to give lessons on pacts”.
The pact between PP and Vox in the Valencian Community, which will be followed by others, constitutes confirmation for the PSOE that what Pedro Sánchez said before his deputies, as soon as he called the elections when he equated PP and Vox and both with Trump or Bolsonaro.
“PP and Vox form an electoral ticket”, was the message of the PSOE yesterday, seeing in the agreement a possibility of wearing down Feijóo, assuming that the pact will be repeated, at the national level, after 23-J.
On the contrary, he tries to turn the tables and blames the agreement on the PSOE, for not wanting to even sit down and talk with the PP to favor the government of Mazón, winner of the elections.
As an example, Alberto Núñez Feijóo puts Cantabria, where the PRC’s decision to abstain will allow the PP not to agree with Vox, because it will be able to govern alone.
Another example, Murcia, where the PP, which is two seats short of an absolute majority, refuses to agree with those of Abascal the Government, because it has more deputies than the left, so there can be no alternative government. Fernando López Miras has also decided to leave Vox without representation on the Assembly Table, despite Vox’s threat of electoral repetition.
But the PSOE does not intend to release the dam “That the extreme right and the extreme right are coming”, since Feijóo has not tried to delay the agreements until the elections go through, as the PSOE expected.
Defense ministers, Margarita Robles, and Finance ministers, María Jesús Montero, focused the message: “PP and Vox form an electoral ticket, so the Spanish already know what will happen if they vote for Feijóo.”
Robles, in statements to RNE, stressed that what happened in Valencia “at full speed, means that it was agreed and a stage was made at a table where -he stressed- there was not a single woman”, and insisted that ” Feijóo has made it very clear that he wants to govern with Vox”, which he considers to be “very worrying”.
The number two of the PSOE, for her part, reproached Feijóo that, “far from a red line, they are laying a red carpet for this movement to take place”, which in her opinion means “that it will be indistinguishable to vote for the PP or Vox”.
What’s more, María Jesús Montero, given the choice, grants Abascal more virtues than Feijóo, because “Vox is reaffirming itself as a political formation that has its own criteria” and demands to enter governments and institutions, despite the initial reluctance of the PP, while Feijóo “does not show his face” and “does not say what he thinks”, then he is not trustworthy.
For this reason, he called for note to be taken of “the one who hides” because he has “a road map that harms the general interest.”
