The president of the PP in Extremadura, María Guardiola, changes the tone with Vox. The popular leader has called off the Autonomous Board of Directors and the Regional Executive Committee dated this Tuesday in a letter in which she says she is aware that respect, dialogue and a programmatic agreement with Vox in Extremadura are essential. We share a priority, to turn the page on socialist policies. This is what should concern us, says that letter released by El Mundo and to which elDiario.es has had access. Up to now Guardiola has maintained his intention to govern alone in the Junta.
In that letter he refers to the general elections as the reason for the date change and points out that they seek to avoid malicious interpretations or distractions that detract from the way to take Feijóo to La Moncloa. These days the post-electoral situation in our community and the PP of Extremadura are being used to try to influence the national campaign, and that pressure is being unfairly transferred to the PP as a whole. We do not want our affiliates’ meetings to be used to do harm, says the letter.
In this new meeting with the polls on July 23, we need to repeat and even improve that extraordinary result. Extremadura and Spain want and deserve a change. The priority is to go out and win. Our region is decisive in achieving the objective of taking our president, Alberto Núñez Feijóo, to La Moncloa, he also expressed.
At the moment there is no new date for the meeting, canceled after several days of internal tensions. In the meeting of the Autonomous Board of Directors and the Regional Executive Committee, which was scheduled to be held in a hotel in Mérida, Guardiola himself and the main leaders of the region were going to intervene.
The situation in Extremadura has flown over the last few weeks in the news of the PP. Last Friday Guardiola coincided with Mazón, who did agree with Vox in the Valencian Community, in the inauguration of Isabel Díaz Ayuso and the matter starred in all the groups. This crisis around the pacts overshadowed the inauguration of the president of the Community of Madrid.
Last week the PP candidate from Extremadura said that she maintained the “hope” that Vox “reconsiders” and offer your support for her to become Solo and Minority Board President. On Tuesday, she defended that she could not allow those who deny sexist violence, dehumanize immigrants or unfurl a canvas to throw the LGTBI flag into a bin to enter the government. However, the PP of that community offered the extreme right a document with 15 measures for the legislature, ranging from the repeal of the Extremadura Law of Historical Memory, the raid to a plausible implementation of the parental veto in schools, the defense of nuclear energy and the review of environmental protection in the lands of the Natura 2000 Network.
In the constitution of the Assembly of Extremadura, against all odds, the left won four of the six positions at the table and the ultra party was left out due to the lack of agreement between PP and Vox.
The national president of Vox, Santiago Abascal, considers the letter sent by the president of the PP in Extremadura, María Guardiola. Respect is basic between two political forces that have been voted for by Extremadurans and Spaniards in many regions, and that we are obliged to understand each other and build an alternative, Abascal said in statements to journalists in Valencia, before attending the session constitution of the Valencian Parliament after the elections of May 28.
In any case, he has indicated that what is important now are the general elections on July 23 and to throw out of the Moncloa Palace who has become a danger for Spain and has incorporated into the leadership of the State all the enemies of the constitutional order and the unity of Spain.
