Yolanda Díaz claims that Sumar "is not a complement to anyone" and is "already unstoppable", in full tension with Podemos

She says that she is willing to take "a step forward", that Sumar will do so slowly and calls for avoiding "low politics" and "confrontation"

PAMPLONA, 8 Nov. (EUROPA PRESS) -

The Second Vice President of the Government, Yolanda Díaz, stated this Tuesday that she is willing to take "a step forward" with her Sumar platform, but has warned that this platform "is not anyone's complement".

"Adding is already unstoppable (...) there is no going back. We are going to continue, we are going to move forward. And as I said on July 8, if you want to add, I am going to take a step forward, collectively", has proclaimed during his speech in a new act of the process of listening to his platform, held at the Palacio de Baluarte in Pamplona, ​​which was attended by some 400 people.

In addition, he has made it clear that the platform shuns "small politics" to "make headlines" but rather aspires to "change lives." "We are tired of petty politics, which makes no more than noise, that confronts us, that scatters us, little politics like the one that does nothing but make us listen to barbarities every day", he has broken down. Moreover, she has deepened that "good politics is about affection, not noise."

The also head of Labor has defended the values ​​of her project and has not made any reference to the controversy generated by former Vice President Pablo Iglesias, who has urged her to reveal as soon as possible if she will be a candidate and her commitment to the confluence of Sumar, but claiming respect for the purple formation. In turn, the party's leadership reaffirmed that her will is to reach a coalition and that they will listen to her proposal when she finishes forming 'Sumar', which they define as a party.

That yes, the vice president has underlined that Sumar is going to build a project in a "different" way, without haste, with "patience" and seriousness and from the perspective of forming a "huge citizen movement" where "everyone fits, not They ask no one for their card, and there may be people who come from different party realities, people who come from different unions, from different professional associations, from NGOs, from social organizations"

He then told the attendees that "not only do I find hope, but he believes that there is desire, that is what I am seeing throughout Spain" and that if the supporters of the platform want to, their will is to take a step forward "in collective" and "feminist" way.

"Adding is not the complement of anyone. Adding thinks of a country in a big way, Adding wants to beat the right, but it is not about beating the right, beating the right is to propose societies that look to the past, it is bipartisanship, our societies are not made up of two, they are made up of many more", he warned.

Immediately afterwards, Yolanda Díaz stressed that she had just "heard the PP" say "authentic barbarities", referring to the criticism of the 'popular' to the Scholarship Statute. "The PP tells us, once again, defending its real model, which is against the misnamed status of the intern in our country, because the PP says that for young people in our country to set foot in a company they have to continue to be slaves and we tell them loud and clear from Sumar that this model has failed, that this model is the past", he concluded.

In addition, Yolanda Díaz has highlighted that "the progressive coalition government that you have here --in Navarra-- is advancing" and "has to continue advancing", and has endorsed the Contigo Navarra coalition, of which Podemos, IUN, Batzarre are part and independent, and that will attend the next regional and municipal elections.

The event, at the Baluarte conference center and auditorium, was attended by some 400 people, including the coordinator of Podemos Navarra, Begoña Alfaro, and the general coordinator of Izquierda Unida de Navarra, Carlos Guzmán. Podemos and IUN have constituted in the Autonomous Community, together with Batzarre and a group of independents, the Contigo Navarra-Zurekin Nafarroa coalition, with which they will compete in the next regional and municipal elections.

The controversy generated by Iglesias' statements does not alter the plans of 'Sumar'. In this way, platform sources stress that the listening process will unfold normally and as planned.

During this event, a member of Podemos, the social integrator and sub-Saharan migrant Fatima Djarra, also participated. In other previous acts of Sumar, territorial positions of Podemos have also attended, as in the case of Extremadura (with its leader Irene de Miguel) or the Basque Country (Pilar Garrido).
