Congress has rejected a motion by Podemos calling for a referendum to remove Spain from NATO
Among other things, the text proposed by the purple people called for the cessation of all military activity in the United States at the bases of Rota and Moron, and the restoration of the greatest increase in military spending in the history of Spain.
On Wednesday, the plenary of Congress rejected, with the votes of PP, PSOE, Vox, PNV, Junts and UPN, the proposal of Podemos to call a referendum on the departure of Spain from NATO, a point that has been supported by ERC, EH Bildu, BNG and the Member of Parliament of Verheugen, Agüeda Mico, who have supported the abstention.
This Wednesday, during the debate on the initiative, the Secretary-General of the Sumar Group, Txema Guijarro ,described the consultation on his presence in an organization that he believes is "dead" as "out of time".
The summary has explained to Europa Press that their Members wanted to support this point, but then abstained, which has led IU Member Engracia Rivera to vote telematically in favour of the Podemos proposal because it has not given her time to change it.
The remaining points of the motion have also been rejected, on which the Sumar group voted in favour.
Thus, thanks to the votes of PSOE, PP, Vox, Junts, PNV and UPN, the point requiring Spain to terminate the Agreement on Defence Cooperation between the Kingdom of Spain and the United States of America and, consequently, to suspend all US activity, presence and military operations at the bases of Rota and Morón has not been successful.
The rejected initiative also urged the Government to reformthe Constitution to include Spain's "express renunciation of war as an instrument of international politics" .
The Podemos proposal called for a complete restoration of the coalition government's largest increase in military spending in the history of the state within the framework of the Atlantic Alliance agreements.
