Echenique sees it convenient to give the PSOE time after its changes and does not perceive the risk of early elections

He stresses that they are the "most stable government in Europe" and that they will fulfill their mandate until the end

MADRID, 25 Jul. (EUROPA PRESS) -

The spokesman for United We Can in Congress, Pablo Echenique, has opted to give the PSOE time after its internal changes to meet the commission to monitor the coalition agreement, which its formation demanded after the differences over military spending.

Nor does he see the risk of early general elections and defends that the coalition Executive is the "most stable" in Europe, which will fulfill its mandate until the end of 2023.

“We are going to find ourselves surprised that the most stable country in Europe is Spain, where the dangerous revolutionaries of United We Can were. While in Italy they are in an incredible crisis and Boris Johnson in the United Kingdom has had to leave. a lot of laws with a fairly consistent parliamentary majority and I think the government will last until the end of the legislature", he maintained during an interview with Europa Press.

In this way and "for many reasons", he has stressed that his analysis of the political "horizon" is not on the table the possibility of advancing elections and has pointed out that the PSOE is undertaking internal changes "like any other party", without This affects the stability of the Executive.

In this sense, and after the changes in the leadership of the PSOE were formalized this Saturday, Echenique has stressed that he has highlighted that it is appropriate to wait for the new profiles to settle in his partner to hold the coalition's monitoring commission, since until now it is "in the air" who should make up the socialist delegation at this dialogue table.

For Echenique, the priority is to "redundant" and "abound" in the "change of course" initiated by the president, Pedro Sánchez, after the Debate on the State of the Nation, which had been demanded for a long time to launch more "courageous" measures ", such as the extraordinary tax on electricity companies and banks.

Especially, as he has related, when the left-wing voter was "disoriented" before the position of the PSOE regarding the deaths of migrants at the Melilla fence or the position on military spending by the NATO Summit.

Regarding whether Sánchez's turn to the left shrinks the space of United We Can, the leader of the purple formation has given the opposite opinion and sentences that it causes a "synergy" throughout the progressive arc.

For example, he has commented that he noticed "euphoria" in the PSOE bench before those announcements by the president, which also helps to "unite" the parliamentary majority and makes it easier to count on their votes at "important moments" of the legislature.

And, in addition, it ensures that the progressive electorate of both forces is "recognized" in the government's action, which allows the primary objective of safeguarding citizens and also improves the "electoral prospects" of the investiture bloc as a whole.

In turn, he has predicted that the growth in the PP polls will decrease to the extent that "he begins to know" the postulates of the popular leader, Alberto Núñez Feijóo, since he has been "hidden in quotes in Galicia for a long time" without appearing much in national media. In this way, he has emphasized that he is not moderate and trusts that this greater knowledge of his ideological approaches will end up bringing a progressive victory in 2023.

As for whether they will claim to create public companies in strategic sectors, Echenique has admitted that "this is not going to happen" as long as they do not have more parliamentary power within the Government, given that the PSOE "is not up for the job" despite the fact that the war of Ukraine has shown that "levers of sovereignty" are needed to resist international turmoil.

In this way, he has defended that France wants to make its energy company 100% public and these types of entities are in many developed countries. "Spain should be able to have them", he has sentenced to criticize the fact that companies such as Repsol, Endesa and Telefónica were "sold off" to public sectors.
