Garamendi accuses Yolanda Díaz of "campaigning" with her "wrong" proposal to cap prices

BILBAO, 19 Sep. (EUROPA PRESS) -

The president of the CEOE, Antonio Garamendi, has accused the second vice president and Minister of Labor, Yolanda Díaz, of "campaigning" with his "wrong" proposal to cap prices.

In an interview granted to ETB2, Garamendi has carried out an analysis of the current economic panorama to affirm that "curves are coming", and has highlighted that a conjunctural part, key to understanding this situation, "is the effect of the invasion of Ukraine".

In his opinion, "not everything is going great as some say, not everything is going horribly wrong as others say." "What we have to see is how we do things so that we get out of this," he added.

In this sense, he referred to Díaz's proposal to cap prices and pointed out that "if by chance any company, also from the Basque Country, sits down to talk about the price, the Police will come" because "it is prohibited".

For the president of the CEOE, it is "very little responsible that a person, who also holds the position he holds, launches these ideas and is more in politics and in campaign than in his responsibility." "I think the second vice president is making a mistake. The electoral campaigns have to be every twenty days, and now they last for years and don't stop," he reproached.

Finally, he considered that the Basque Country is in a "better than other territories" position of the State due to "the industrial approach" that it maintains.
