Pedro Sanchez during the control session this Wednesday.
The President of the Spanish Government, Pedro Sánchez, reiterated on Wednesday that he will meet the deadline set by the Constitution and that he will not call elections until next year, a statement with which Sánchez responds to the request for resignation made by the PP leader, Alberto Núñez Feijóo.
During the government control session, Sanchez and Feijóo have accused each other of corruption. Thus, the opposition leader has identified the PSOE leader with the initials "P. S." on the agendas of former socialist militant Leire Díez, to whichthe chief executive has replied that if he wants to "play acronym" he should first ask "who is M. Rajoy."
Feijóo has accused Sanchez of practicing "state crime" to "cover everything up," and has said that the president will go down in history as "an inducer, financier, and beneficiary of the most serious corruption case" of all democracy, even though "his" gestapocho "will not be remembered for his skill and success:" How long will you prolong this rubbish before giving the word to the Spanish? "
In his reply, the Prime Minister states that he acknowledges his "mistakes", but that he will "never" accept the " hypocrisy"of the party that has dealt with the Punica, Gürtel and Kitchen cases. He even refers to Feijóo's photo with drug dealer Marcial Dorado.
EH Bildu, loyal to Sanchez
EH Bildu's spokeswoman, Mertxe Aizpurua, has remained loyal tothe President of the Government, but has warned him that "only survival will be a failure" and has urged him to end the "paralysis situation" and restore "the social and plurinational agenda."
Aizpurua has acknowledged that the government and the legislature "are going through a difficult time": "We find the information that is being disseminated about alleged practices around your party serious. You will have to clarify everything and we will demand that you establish the necessary responsibilities for any kind of corruption," he said.
EH Bildu's spokesman has not closed the legislature becausehe does not want to help the far-right reach the government, but he believes that Sanchez should start taking steps.
The head of government has replied that the PSOE has acted "firmly" in the face of corruption and has assured that it will also act "in the face of the perversity and lies that are spreading" about the party and the government.
He has also said that his "government" is "uncomfortable for the elites" of Spain and the "powerful governments of the world" with measures such as labour reform, raising the minimum wage or condemning the "genocide" in Gaza: "I say to all those interests that have their representatives in the PP and Vox that the government comes with the votes of the people and not through the shortcuts they are trying to find," he said.
