“It seems to us that the veto of Irene Montero is something that can do a lot of damage and it is already doing so,” says the former vice president of the Government
The former Vice President of the Government and former leader of Podemos, Pablo Iglesias, has affirmed tonight, regarding the exclusion of Irene Montero in the electoral lists of Sumar, that “there was a will to politically kill Can“.
“It seems to us that the veto of Irene Montero is something that can do a lot of damage and it is already doing it”Iglesias has stated in a gathering of Hora 25 of Cadena Ser.
“There was a will to politically kill Podemos or reduce it to a very small expression, and that has been consummated”, Iglesias has assured.
“They are elections in which we can participate with a much more modest position than we would like, but politics is like that,” he added.
Iglesias has indicated that his party is acting with “great responsibility in a context like this”, because everyone realizes that “the role of Podemos, despite having shown that it mobilizes more than 50,000 subscribers in less than 24 hours, despite what it represents, has been left in a more than modest position.”
However, he has stressed that the purple formation has said that assumes the pact with Sumar because “the important thing is not to make it easy for the right and the extreme right.”
“We can not be the excuse for saying that our party did not do everything in its power to avoid that, but it seems to us a political mistake,” he added.
For this reason, he pointed out, when they propose a rectification it is because they understand “that if that were to occur” they would start “with many better options to avoid something that unfortunately seems to be getting closer”, according to the surveys.
“They are to be concerned because we can have a government of the PP and vox“has highlighted.
