Garzón trusts in reissuing the coalition government, but demands "high state" in the negotiations

MADRID, 28 Jul. (EUROPA PRESS) -

The federal coordinator of the IU, Alberto Garzón, has been hopeful about the possibility of reissuing the coalition government between PSOE and Sumar after the general elections last Sunday, although he has warned that this will require "state height" in the negotiations with the different formations to form a majority of investiture.

This is how the also acting Minister of Consumption has pronounced before the meeting of the Federal Coordination of the United Left, the highest executive body for management and debate, to assess this result of 23J.

In this context, Garzón considers that the numbers that came out of the polls last Sunday show that Spain "is a plurinational country", for which he has insisted that the work that must be done now is to "agree among the formations that think that the concept of Spain is much more open than the concept they handle" the coalition between PP and Vox.

"The very configuration of our State can and must be different to represent and to describe the enormous wealth that our country has and that is going to require negotiations that imply that change of culture," Garzón defended before this body of Izquierda Unida.

During his speech, Garzón has opted, not only for continuing the work of the coalition government, but for a "deepening in the expansion of rights": "I think that this is the enormous challenge that lies ahead."

In this regard, he has assured that Izquierda Unida will be part of this challenge but within the space of Sumar, the formation led by Yolanda Díaz of which he has said that "it has achieved something extraordinary" due to the general situation and that of the political space of the left.

For this reason, he believes that Sumar now has a "clarification and consolidation process" ahead of him in which, as he has said, Izquierda Unida will contribute and help "so that it can become an instrument that improves all expectations."

In line, Garzón has demanded that the parties that make up Sumar must "be up to the task" to, among other things, launch electoral programs and political projects.
