Behind him Isabel Diaz Ayuso’s call to his party colleagues this Thursday in which he asked that did not attend bilateral meetings that The President of the Government declaredPedro Sánchez, together with all the regional leaders, due to the debate that has arisen around the single financing for Catalonia, agreed between CFP and ERCSources from his presidency assure LaSexta that “President Ayuso yes, he will come to a bilateral meeting with Pedro Sánchez if it is called,” while warning that “it will depend on the agenda of said meeting.”
Some statements that come after the Popular regional presidents met This Friday, during a summit organized at the Palace of the Dukes of Pastrana in Madrid and convened by its leader, Alberto Nuñez FeijooThe popular barons came there with one order and one goal: not to speak to the media upon arrival and to establish a unified position regarding the debate on regional funding.
Upon arrival and when asked whether or not they would go to Moncloa, the popular regional presidents were given clear instructions not to speak: “I will make statements later”said Andalusian Juanma Moreno, while others like Valencian Carlos Mazón promised to speak “immediately.” The purpose of the meeting was also clear. Both Alfonso Fernández Mañueco and López Miras referred to unity.
Indeed, at the end of the popular summit, Ayuso did not deviate from the script and remained faithful to her message, even if it was later nuanced. “As long as there is no joint meeting, a meeting between all the regional presidents, we are not going to fall into the trap of [Pedro] Sanchez and talk in part about what belongs to each one,” he proclaimed after the meeting.
Genoa’s request for an “immediate” meeting also remained Conference of Autonomous Presidents. In fact, the Andalusian president, Juanma Moreno, asked the president of the Executive to “don’t be dizzy”since “first he said it was in September and now he says that preparations will start in September and that it could be in October or November.”
In this way, they assure that they will only negotiate the financing jointly, since they affirm that they will not accept “the compromise of the model decided by two parties”, said Mañueco in reference to PSC and ERC whose agreement has, in addition, allowed the Investiture of Salvador Illa as the new president of the Generalitat. And they say they feel belittled by the government because of the “disrespect and insults” to the regions, recalled the president of the Xunta de Galicia, Alfonso Rueda.
However, they do not refuse, as Ayuso threatened, to meet Sánchez one-on-one to discuss other issues that affect each community. For example, the Andalusian president assured that “they would talk about it” since “Andalusia is willing to dialogue with everyone”, including “the president of the government”. Although, yes, they insist that the agreement for Catalonia represents to destroy equality among the Spanish.
