The president of Vox, Santiago Abascal, insisted this Monday that he considered Pedro Sánchez’s time as head of government exhausted and asked for a step not only from the Socialists but also from the PP. Abascal announced that he would go to Brussels this Tuesday to request that a monographic plenary session be held in the European Parliament on the “corruption of the Pedro Sánchez mafia”. The third political force demands from the party of Alberto Núñez Feijóo its support to carry out this initiative and urges it to break all its “links” and “coincidences” with the socialists.
“Every day that passes we find more incredible and more delusional news,” lamented the Vox leader in statements to the media during a visit to Almaraz (Cáceres), where he went for the electoral campaign in Extremadura. “It cannot be possible that the collapse of Pedro Sánchez’s mafia becomes the collapse of the State and institutions,” he added, denouncing the “bunkerization” of the President of the Government and asking the PSOE and the PP to take a step forward. “We demand immediate elections for some and the presentation of a motion of censure against others”he pointed out.
However, Abascal assured that Vox would not remain idle, hence the decision to go to Brussels to request a plenary session where the political situation in Spain is addressed, which, he recognized, requires the favorable vote of the European people. “The PP must break all ties with Pedro Sánchez’s mafia and all the coincidences with socialist policies,” he said.
According to Abascal, the electoral advances in Extremadura and Aragon illustrate the proximity of the PP and the PSOE around “green fanaticism”, “migratory invasion” and “gender dictatorship”. The leader of Vox accused the president of Extremadura, María Guardiola, and her Aragonese counterpart, Jorge Azcón, of acting out of “selfishness” for having called the respective appointments at the polls on December 21 and February 8 instead of having reached an agreement with Vox to carry out the regional budgets, as happened in the Valencian Community. “The PP is no longer a national party, it is a sum of regional parties and in each place they decide on one thing,” he lamented, at the same time expressing confidence that his party will emerge stronger from the Extremadura elections next Sunday.
The leader of Vox also mentioned the appearance this Monday of the President of the Government before the media to present the ‘Compliant’ report with which he drew up his usual assessment of the year. Abascal described as “delusional” the statements of Sánchez, whom he accused of being a “liar”. “The Socialist Party has mercilessly defrauded and lied to the Spanish people and nothing it says can be taken into account,” he declared, assuring that the government is plunged into “a headlong rush” marked by alleged cases of corruption and complaints of sexual harassment against several Socialist officials. He believes that Sánchez only needs to dispel his fear of Vox by seeing it as a “desperate attempt not to weaken himself further”, because he is “doomed to failure”.
Abascal also took the opportunity to congratulate Chile’s newly elected president, José Antonio Kast, whom he called a “personal friend” and “political ally.” He admitted to feeling “somewhat envious” of the right-wing leader’s “overwhelming victory” in Sunday’s elections, while Spain is governed, according to him, by “a corrupt mafia” “ready for anything.” The Vox leader assured that a “global reaction” was taking place that would reach Spain “as soon as possible” and showed his intention to attend the inauguration of Gabriel Boric’s successor in March if the schedule allows it.
