Abascal demands that the PP "speak" in Extremadura and justifies wanting to enter governments so that the agreements "are fulfilled"

At the start of the pre-campaign for 23J, he urges the 'popular' to "say if they want to build an alternative"

MADRID, 24 Jun. (EUROPA PRESS) -

The leader of Vox, Santiago Abascal, has asked the PP this Saturday to "talk" about an agreement in Extremadura to build an "alternative majority" that allows the PSOE to be evicted from the regional Executive, while justifying that his formation wants to enter the governments so that the pacts "are fulfilled".

The president of the Extremaduran PP, María Guardiola, has ruled out governing the autonomous community with Vox after days of negotiations between the two parties after the 28M elections. Those of Santiago Abascal claim to have a presence in the regional government, while the 'popular' justify their refusal based on the percentage of Vox's vote, lower than in the Valencian Community, where they have reached a government pact.

In an act that marked the start of Vox's pre-campaign for the 23J general elections, held in Madrid, the party leader criticized the situation in Extremadura, stressing that his party and the PP are working together to build an "alternative majority ". In this context, he has regretted that those of Alberto Núñez Feijóo "insult and demonize them, as the left does", but, he has denounced, despite this they are "obliged" to give them their votes so that the 'popular' access the Extremaduran executive.

For Abascal, who has indicated that the situation is "of science fiction", giving his votes in exchange for nothing "is not possible." Despite this, he has insisted that the agreement with the PP can still take place. "Let's talk", he has emphasized himself.

During his speech, he has justified that Vox wants to have a presence in regional governments because, as he explained, "some agreements are not fulfilled" and "some laugh and strut" for it. "We want governments to be able to execute (what was agreed upon) us," she explained. Thus, he has exemplified his words with the government agreement signed in the Valencian Community with the PP, where "the right thing" has been done.

The policies that Vox wants to undertake in the Valencian Community "have been put in writing", which has made it possible for the pact to "be signed" and have an "immediate" government. "It is the formula for this to be fulfilled," he insisted. Along these lines, he has praised the "sensibleness" of the Valencian PP and has emphasized "the desire to understand each other, to interpret the electoral results well and to engage in adult politics" to "defeat separatism and socialism."

For this reason, he has urged the 'popular' to "say if they want to build an alternative or they are in the delicatessen's turn because it is their turn."

Abascal has started the countdown for the general elections on July 23 and has advanced that, among the various commitments that he will advance during the electoral campaign, the first is to "change course" and "change one by one all the policies that divide and destroy" Spain.

Among them, he has cited the law of 'only yes is yes', which "attacks the safety of women"; the Democratic Memory Law, "which attacks freedom and harmony"; the Housing Law, "which attacks private property"; or the Trans Law, "which aims to hormonal and mutilate" minors. "We are going to change the course in a determined and decisive way, all this must be changed," the Vox leader emphasized.

"There is one month left to achieve our true objective, which must be to throw out the Government of Spain", which includes "enemies" of the nation, "terrorism" and "communism" have abounded.

The general secretary of Vox, Ignacio Garriga, has also intervened in the event, who has expressed himself in the same line as Abascal. The leader has assured that Vox's hand "has always been outstretched to shape the alternative and will continue to be outstretched", alluding to the PP, but has guaranteed that the formation will not "betray the trust" of its voters. "We are not going to accept lessons from anyone," he has warned.

He has also praised the agreement reached with the PP in Castilla y León, where Juan García-Gallardo is vice president, which, although it is not "perfect", is "fair".

Together with Abascal and Garriga, the founder of Vox, José Antonio Ortega Lara, and the deputy María Ruiz participated in the act. Ortega Lara has reviewed Vox's initiatives and has dedicated a large part of his speech to listing the "nefarious effects" of the 2030 Agenda.
