The leader of the PP has fulfilled his prediction: Pedro Sanchez will not resign from his position and will allege that after the “shows of affection and unconditional support”, he will “probably” say that he is staying to “stop the right and the extreme right”, he said five days ago, when the President of the Government He took time to “reflect” on whether to continue in Moncloa. Two hours after Sánchez confirmed that he will continue to lead the Presidency, Alberto Núñez Feijóo He has armed himself with reasons and has concluded that the general secretary of the PSOE “has resigned for five days due to electoral and judicial strategy.” He has also reproached him for “ordering the people to reflect, but not giving them the floor” by calling elections. “The only way to make a point in politics is to consult the Spanish; “Instead of giving explanations, he has subjected the nation to his personalist strategy.”
Feijóo gave a long speech, in front of a press room full of journalists at the national headquarters of his party. Although he has been full of accusations against the socialist leader, has resigned from presenting a motion of censure against Sánchez because he knows that he has “bought the support of the independentists at the expense of “less democracy.” What he has done is analyze the “most dangerous” speech of all those that Sánchez has intoned because “he does not accept the discrepancy and wants a country “Behind all his staging is the pretension of being even more president, even if it is at the cost of even less democracy,” he stressed.
For the opposition leader, the president “has preferred to flee forward rather than resign” and “has subjected the nation to his personalist strategy.” Because the feeling that he has moved him is that of “fear”, which is why he has been able to “use even your privacy to try to save time and has dared to portray his attempt not to face democratic reality as an anti-democratic conspiracy.” He has also come to “using the king as a supporting actor in his latest film.” And he asks: “If there has been no resignation and there have been no explanations, what has there been today? The threats of a cornered president. Sánchez has chosen to try to unite his people at the cost of dividing Spain in two” and “taking the hair to 48 million Spaniards,” he responds. “Today Sánchez has not assumed his responsibilities, he just shakes them off. And clings to the wild card of ‘right and extreme right’ which he always uses as a preview of his next outrages.
And in response to this, the opposition leader proposes raising his voice: “They are not going to silence us. They are not going to corner us to those of us who defend the freedom to be critical and demanding of our government. They are not going to subject the dignity of this nation to their interests once again. We are not going to return to both sides.” Because this is what the analysis of the national committee of the PP has consisted of, which has had barely an hour to put together its message. What the opposition believes is that Sánchez seeks to “sneak through the back door a regime change” since “he doesn’t want opposition, he doesn’t want Justice, he doesn’t want the media and he only wants himself.”
“That judges act independently is neither a democratic anomaly nor persecution, It is democratic normality; That the media report freely and that people express themselves as they consider best is not an anti-democratic anomaly, it is democratic normality; that the opposition exercises its rights and denounces the Government’s abuses, or the immorality of those who support it, is not an anti-democratic anomaly or delegitimization, it is democratic normality,” he argued.
In any case, he wanted to send a message of “apologies” to the Spaniards who “do not deserve” their president and another message of hope for the future. “Spain needs a new time and can no longer find it in those who are the past. What Spain needs is a new democratic government, with a president worthy of it and not the regime change that attempts to sneak in behind all this play However long his mandate extends, everything we are experiencing is nothing more than the epilogue of a past that we will overcome.”
