Sumar Mugimendua He refused to form a coalition with Podemos Euskadi because his ‘distrust’ of the Morados extends to both the state leadership and the Basque leadership.
The platform of grassroots militants that urged Sumar, Podemos, Ezker Anitza-IU and Equo Berdeak to return to the negotiations on a coalition for the elections to the Basque Parliament, made public this Monday the minutes of the meeting they with the four parties.
In the latter negotiations it was determined that the main obstacle to an agreement lay in the ‘guarantees’ of compliance by Podemos, as Podemos agreed to relinquish the candidate for lehendakari (and subsequent appointment as spokesperson in parliament), assuming that the name of the coalition would bear the terms Sumar and Elkarrekin, and accepted that the first place on the list for each area would be shared between Sumar, Podemos and Ezker Anitza, although it asked for a second place in Bizkaia or Álava .
As for the “guarantees”, according to this story, We can Euskadi He said that if the state leadership or the bases in the consultations (as happened in Galicia) rejected a negotiated coalition agreement, the Basque leadership would resign and renounce its participation in elections.
Considering this offer, Sumar Mugimendua He argued that this would not stop the Podemos state leadership from promoting a Basque list with candidates other than the resigned leaders and that it is not worth reaching an agreement like in Galicia to end up like this.
So #ElkarrekinSumarBai tried to convince Sumar by arguing that if Podemos promoted another list after an agreement in Euskadi, they would “emerge strengthened by having done everything possible to reach an agreement and Podemos would remain the one who prevented this, so their situation would be “better than presenting directly separately.”
However, Sumar’s representative then said that “they were talking all the time as if the obstacle to the distrust of the agreement was the situation in Madrid, while the problem is ‘not Madrid, but Euskadi’”, because there have already been breaches committed by We can. trusting what was said at the negotiating tables.
Ezker Anitza-IU He also showed his distrust towards Podemos for its actions at the state level, but also in Euskadi for non-compliance in the Elkarrekin coalition in municipal councils and administrations because Podemos Ezker had not given Anitza the financial amounts corresponding to it.
It was expressed in the same sentence Equo Berdeakwho also recalled that Podemos expelled them from Elkarrekin after the state agreement with Sumar.
#ElkarrekinSumarBai has committed to the implementation a meeting after the elections open to those who promote unity, to assess what happened and the future of this political space in Euskadi.
