Vox denies that his speech generates tension and claims that he calls "things by their name" and will not take "not one step back"

He is "convinced" that Sánchez has already negotiated a referendum in Catalonia "and they are waiting how and when they announce it."

MADRID, 6 Dic. (EUROPA PRESS) -

The general secretary of Vox, Ignacio Garriga, rejects that his party seeks to generate tension and assures that it is only dedicated to "calling things by their name" after "decades" of consensus on issues that "could not be talked about". For this reason, he warns that they will not take "not one step back" and will continue to denounce "the outrages" of the Government "and calling things by their name no matter who it costs and bother whoever bothers them."

After a week of controversy in Congress, Garriga claims in an interview with Europa Press that Vox is only "taking certain issues out of the trunk" and that is "drawing attention." "It is not a matter of moderation, radicalism or greater or lesser tension, but rather that saying things by their names is out of the ordinary," he maintains.

This is what happens, as he assures, with his vice president in Castilla y León, Juan García-Gallardo, whom he sets up as an "example" of the policies that Vox wants to implement throughout Spain and denounces that "noise" around him is generated by the media.

"It is evident that the work of García-Gallardo is marking a before and after. It is a preview of what we will do when the Spaniards decide that Abascal presides over the Government of the nation," he advances, demanding a "real" change in policies and not a mere "alternation" of armchairs.

In this sense, he insists that the controversy surrounding Vox is only due to the fact that it is "calling ETA members, rapists, rapists, criminals, criminals, and embezzlers, seditious and coup-mongers, seditious, and coup-mongers."

With this, he stands up against "the culture of cancellation" and denounces that the members of his party are subjected to "permanent stigmatization and demonization." "We are not going to take a step back," he guarantees, convinced that the citizens "appreciate" his way of saying things.

In this context, he accuses Sánchez of being "ready for anything" in order to "sleep one more night" at the Moncloa Palace and "please his partners". And he reveals that he is "convinced" that the President of the Government has already negotiated the calling of a referendum in Catalonia "and they are waiting how and when they announce it."

Garriga believes that Sánchez and separatism share "a plan" to "blow up the constitutional architecture and the pillars of the nation"; and that is being seen in the modification of the Criminal Code to repeal the crime of sedition, the granting of pardons or the suggestions to modify embezzlement.

"Sánchez is laying out the red carpet for the enemies of the Spanish, of freedom and of Spain," he accuses, warning the Executive that he forgets that he will find "the Spanish people" in front and Vox will be "leading the battle" in the streets, the courts and institutions.

As he remarked, Vox will be "the hope of the Catalan people", who "has seen how one and the other have abandoned and left them aside while they only advanced to shield their privileges, their disruptive agenda and their ideological delusions".

"Sánchez is the best ally that separatism could have, one of the reasons why it is urgent to evict him from La Moncloa," he insists, speaking of Vox as "crazy" people who have decided to step forward "seeing that no political formation and no organization was willing to defend Spain and Catalonia".

In fact, he maintains that doing what other parties have done so far will not reverse the situation, so Vox offers "a different path" that consists of "confronting separatism" and eliminating all the tools it has had to "continue advancing in his disruptive agenda and ideological delusions".

In this sense, he points to the PSOE as "openly separatist" and a "crutch and partner" of separatism in Catalonia. "There would be no separatism without the Socialist Party and there would be no Socialist Party without separatism in Catalonia," she maintains.

Faced with this, Vox offers a commitment for the State to recover powers or to close media outlets "used by separatism"; claiming that the Government have a "presence" in Catalonia.

"What has never been done is what Vox offers, to be there and fight in the streets and in Parliament," he points out. "The PSOE, if it does not want to join the recovery of Catalonia, at least not to bother and support an investiture when Vox becomes the first force".
