Junts avoids proposing names to replace Sánchez: “We don’t care who”
The Junts spokesperson in Congress, Míriam Nogueras, declined this Monday to propose a name that could replace the President of the Government, Pedro Sánchez, without having to advance the elections, a proposal that Carles Puigdemont’s party defended last week: “We don’t care who.”
In an interview on TV3 about what Junts has baptized as the “Starmer route”, and which proposes that Sánchez step aside so that Congress can install a new president in the face of the corruption cases that plague the PSOE and the “non-compliance” that they attribute to him, Nogueras has maintained that Junts does not “care about the name” of the successor, but rather that he is “capable” of complying with the pending agreements. “Whoever comes has to be someone who delivers,” he insisted.
The spokesperson for Junts in Madrid has stated that this is a proposal “that above all the PSOE has to meditate on”, and has opined that within the socialist ranks there is a “rumor” on this issue. “As long as Catalonia continues to be breached, there will always be instability,” warned Nogueras, who expressed his surprise that Junts is the only party that supports this path. Nogueras has denied that Junts has had “contacts” with the PP and has distanced himself from those of Alberto Núñez Feijóo by ensuring that the PSOE has voted more times with the popular party than those of Carles Puigdemont this term.
On the same day that the Government begins the process to approve the Budgets, with the presentation of the macroeconomic table in the Council of Ministers, Nogueras has considered it “science fiction” that the Executive tries to approve the accounts. Thus, he has once again insisted that Junts cannot approve this year’s Budgets because Catalonia has not yet “collected” those of previous years. (EFE)
