Podemos signs the coalition with Sumar, which leaves Irene Montero and Echenique without positions

The party criticizes the exclusion of the head of Equality and appealed to negotiate because they could not accept vetoes. "The unit is touched"

Podemos has already put its signature to the coalition promoted by Sumar to run in the general elections of 23J, as it already advanced in the morning, although the "veto" to the Minister of Equality, Irene Montero, is maintained to be part of the candidacy and the assignment of positions that are granted, as indicated to Europa Press by training sources.

Regarding the electoral lists, in the list of positions assigned by Sumar neither Montero nor another party reference, the current spokesman for United We Can in Congress, Pablo Echenique, appears.

Nor do other heavyweights of the party appear, such as the leader Rafa Mayoral, although sectors of Podemos indicated that he did not want to repeat as parliamentarian, the Secretary of State for Equality, Ángela Rodríguez 'Pam', or the Government delegate against Gender Violence, Vicky Rosell.

BELARRA AND VERSTRYNGE DO GO ON THE LISTS

The leader of the purple party and Minister of Social Rights, Ione Belarra, and her number 'three' and head of Organization, Lilith Verstrynge, do appear in the candidacy for fifth place in Madrid.

In addition, Sumar's estimates grant up to eight starting positions to other party leaders such as co-spokesman Javier Sánchez Serna for Murcia, MEP Idoia Villanueva for Navarra and the deputy in the last legislature Roberto Uriarte for Álava.

It also appoints heads of the list to regional coordinators. Thus, the first place is given to the leader of the party in the Basque Country, Pilar Garrido, for Guipúzcoa; her counterpart from Andalusia Martina Velarde (Granada) and the former Canarian councilor Noemí Santana (Las Palmas).

From Sumar they already assured that Podemos was widely represented in the future parliamentary group, together with first positions in the constituencies of Ávila, Badajoz, Cáceres, Guadalajara, Palencia, Segovia and Teruel, with fewer seat options.

This morning, Belarra herself regretted that the vice president's team, Yolanda Díaz, considered Montero an "insurmountable obstacle" to the candidacy, something that "deeply saddens" her, and that, with this relationship on the lists elections, your party runs the risk of being unrepresented.

The purples insist, as their general secretary has said, that they cannot accept this exclusion of the Minister of Equality and want to continue negotiating so that this point is rectified, after signing the coalition agreement.

And it is that the presentation of the electoral lists is later and the electoral call marks June 19 as the deadline.

UNITY, TOUCHED

Precisely Sánchez Serna has written on Twitter that without the presence of the Minister of Equality in the candidacy "unity is touched."

The party's co-spokesperson has denounced that the "reactionaries" have tried by all possible means to end the number two of the formation by "all possible means: political violence, judicial harassment and media sewer".

"But the saddest thing is that progressive sectors succumb to pressure and also join that right-wing veto. Without Irene Montero, the unit is touched," he has transferred.

The already ex-deputy Isabel Franco has criticized that, given the terms offered to the purple party, the "objective was always for Podemos not to obtain representation" and charges again against the "veto" of Montero, who is an "international reference in feminist policies" .

"Are there people in Sumar who have forgotten that Pedro Sánchez's big mistake was to put personal vetoes on Podemos and offer him irrelevant positions? He was wrong several times. When he realized it, we had a coalition government. Have we learned or do we have to crash again?", the co-founder of Podemos Juan Carlos Monedero has launched on Twitter.
