The Junts leader has emphasized that he has “more options” to govern in a scenario of simple majorities than PSC candidate Salvador Illa.
The JxCat candidate for the presidency of the Generalitat, Carles Puigdemont, has reiterated his intention to run for investiture in Parliament, for which he has already initiated “discreet contacts” with the sole intention of forming a government: “We We have an opportunity and we will exhaust it.”
He said this before the Junts parliamentary groups in the Parliament, Congress, Senate and European Parliament, during a meeting held in Perpignan (France) on Thursday, four days after the 12M elections.
Puigdemont has pointed out that an electoral repeat “is not a good scenario for anyone” and should be neither the “option” nor the “priority” of JxCat, although he said: “We are not afraid and we are prepared for all eventualities. .” “.
For Puigdemont, in the absence of ‘classic absolute majorities’ in parliament and a ‘classic tripartite limit on the stick’, Junts has more options to form ‘a minority government’, and he has announced that they will ‘fight’ for it. . That is why he has emphasized that he has “more options” to govern in a scenario of simple majorities than the PSC candidate Salvador Illa.
“If Mr. Salvador Illa were to form a minority government, it would be as legitimate as ours. His would not lack legitimacy, but neither will ours,” Puigdemont claimed. Therefore, he asked that all options be exhausted.
