Aitor Esteban, spokesman for the PNV in Congress, has asked Spanish President Pedro Sánchez to see “what will you do to keep us as partners”. “If you don’t sort out your parliamentary relations, who do you plan to reach Moncloa with after the next election?” has asked.

In this sense, Esteban Sánchez warned during the second day of the debate on the state of the nation, which has been held in the Congress of Deputies since yesterday, that “he cannot afford to do without the partners. What will you do? because they feel motivated to support you?

In addition, Deputy Jeltzale has criticized the numerous non-compliances he believes the Spanish Government is committing in connection with the made commitments with the Basque group He cited, inter alia, the violation of the pending transfers with which they committed themselves in the investiture agreement. “You unilaterally draw up the planning yourself afterwards. And then you repeatedly failed to stick to it, as a result of which we have already exceeded all agreed dates.”

“In fact, you have taken advantage of this crisis to take the opposite path. With the excuse of so-called ‘co-governance’, a newly coined term, you have come in to regulate and condition areas that have hitherto been reserved for the Autonomous Communities”, criticized Esteban.

The representative of jeltzale also referred to the measures announced yesterday, including nownew taxes on the profits of electricity companies Still the banking“We’re not outright against the idea that a profit cut can be temporarily assumed, but it can’t just be done the old-fashioned way.”

Aitor Esteban has insisted on the weight they have as government partners: “What are you going to do to keep us as partners? The ‘you can’t afford it’ argument to continue supporting him is a very discouraging reason”.

“Because in reality the one who ‘can’t afford it’ is you. You cannot do without partners. What are you going to do so that they are motivated to support you?” he repeated.

Finally, Esteban wanted to communicate it in his usual tone “by means of a saying, so that in the coming months he will remember it more easily through the anecdote. You already know that the rural world is wise. This time I will not use a Basque saying, but from my mother’s town Cañamaque in Soria It is well known that the day of “Corpus Christi” (also called “Day of the Lord” in some places) is commemorated three weeks after Ascension Day And Coincidentally it lasts three weeks before the eggs hatch before they hatch. The saying goes like this: Whoever wants chickens on the day of the Lord, let himself be ridiculed on the day of Ascension. Write it down, Mr. President. You have the time of the ‘Ascension’ of this legislature, if you wish to prosper on the ‘Day of the Lord’ of the next inauguration.”
