The President of the Government, Pedro Sánchez, revealed this Friday, during the press conference held at dawn after the meeting of European Union leaders, that he had met Yolanda Díaz. to deal with the government crisis due to corruption cases … and sexual harassment that affect the PSOE, but it does not specify which day or its content.
When asked if he considered it disloyal that the Second Vice President of the Government and Minister of Labor, Yolanda Díaz, demanded a government crisis due to the alleged cases of corruption and sexual harassment affecting the PSOE, he responded bluntly: “No, I don’t think about it.”
The second vice president warned last week that Sánchez must react with a “top to bottom” reformulation of the Executive because “it couldn’t continue like this”. Several PSOE ministers also rejected this restructuring and the head of Transport, Óscar Puente, assured that this amounted to offering “sacrifices on the altar” and asked Díaz if he also considered restructuring Sumar’s ministries.
However, the federal coordinator of the IU, Antonio Maíllo, distanced himself from this request and said that Díaz launched it without consensus with the Sumar parties. The training is committed to it meeting as a first step to break the impasse and warned the PSOE that not giving importance to this appointment would be “frivolous” and would show that “it is not up to the task”.
Throughout Thursday, various ministers from the socialist wing used a conciliatory tone towards Sumar, emphasizing that there are many more things that unite them than those that separate them and that they will reach agreements to overcome these tensions.
This Friday precisely, representatives of the PSOE and Sumar’s parties will meet to address the crisis within the Executive. For now, heThe two partners opt for secrecy and provide few details on this appointment, except that the meeting will take place in the presence of the organizing secretary of the PSOE, Rebeca Torró, and that there will be leaders of Movimiento Sumar, IU or Más Madrid. The time and place where they will meet has not yet been revealed.
Sources from both wings of the Executive have already emphasized that this meeting was going to be limited to those responsible for the party leadership and that the presence of government ministers was not planned, which differs from other summits of the coalition monitoring commission, as in July where the ministers Ernest Urtasun, representative of Sumar or María Jesús Montero or Félix Bolaños with regard to the socialist sector, were present.
