According to MP Jeltzale, the new political scenario that the May 12 elections in Catalonia will bring could determine the future of the Spanish government. Next Sunday’s results, he said, could depend on whether “the legislature ends or not.”
In a week, the new division of Catalonia’s parliament and the possible government combinations will be known, something that will undoubtedly determine state policy. “The risk of a blockade is real and we will have to see whether they are able to form a majority. The development of the current legislature in Madrid will depend on it.” This is how the PNV representative spoke in Congress: Aitor Estebaninterviewed in Euskadi Irratia.
Jeltzale’s leader considers it “difficult to form a majority” in Catalonia with “the current political climate”. This, he added, will determine the approval of the Spanish government’s next budgets.
When asked whether the “democratic regeneration” announced by the President of the Spanish government will serve to deepen self-government, Pedro Sánchez, the PNV delegate, answers that “the steps towards self-government must be taken daily in Congress, faced with centralistic and restrictive decisions. “That is exactly what EH Bildu did not do in Madrid,” he criticized.
In this sense, after Sánchez’s announcement, he assures that he has “no hope” for the renewal of the law on state secrets, although he acknowledges that “a loophole” could arise. “It is the PSOE itself that has been rejecting the process to renew this law for years.”
