The acting president of the Government and general secretary of the PSOE, Pedro Sánchez, and candidate for investiture, will hold a meeting with the president of the Popular Party, Alberto Núñez Feijóo, next Monday at 5 p.m., as sources from both parties have confirmed. Last Wednesday, the leader of the PP stood up to the socialist, citing his “private agenda.”
Feijóo will convey to Sánchez “the absolute rejection of the first political party in Spain that the governability of our country is conditioned to the demands of the independence movement,” according to conservative sources. In Feijóo’s opinion, “the amnesty cannot be a bargaining chip for Pedro Sánchez to remain in Moncloa. It is neither constitutional nor ethical to undermine the principle of equality between the citizens of our country, nor is there authorization from the ballot boxes to treat privileged to anyone, whether he is an independence politician or not.
Contact round
Upon being named a candidate for the investiture by the King last Tuesday, Sánchez announced that he wanted meet with all parliamentary groups, starting with Sumar, his future coalition partner if he manages to be re-elected, and the PP. With Díaz, he has set this month of October as the limit to reach an agreement.

The appointment with Feijóo has a different purpose, as explained by the acting president during his appearance after receiving the order from Felipe VI. “It is not to garner his support. “I consider it out of place knowing their territorial alliances,” said Sánchez. Nor do I want to meet to appeal to the worst of corruptions: transfuguism, as the PP has done. But I am going to address myself to propose some common sense: that they comply with the laws, starting with the Constitution, and unblock the government of the judges, which has been blocked for five years as a result of their irresponsible attitude. And by the way, that we can banish insult and delegitimization from political discussion. I intend to do everything possible to make it so. “I only ask that the legitimacy of Parliament be respected and the Constitution be complied with.”
