The decision of Més per Mallorca to run in the European elections with ERC, Bildu and the BNG under the umbrella of Ara Repúbliques has meant an important splash of cold water for Compromís and has reopened a debate within the coalition that is still not closed. The fact that Més per Mallorca - one of its traditional partners who is also one of the founders of the Acord del Túria - has decided to pause its coalition with Sumar comes to settle the already existing doubts about the strength of the project led by Yolanda Diaz.
It is difficult to predict how much support in the form of votes is lost after the departure of the Balearic party (Més per Mallorca obtained 37,000 in the regional elections and 83,000 - already in alliance with Sumar - in the general elections), but the truth is that the decision of the brothers from the Islands shows the uncertainty that exists in a part of Compromís.
Yesterday, the critics of Bloc i País - who have never seen favorably the approach to Díaz - woke up from their lethargy after more than a month without tweeting and lamented on networks that Compromís blocked the consultation on the alliances for the European elections that had been held. required. An argument now supported by the announcement made by Més per Mallorca.
However, the spokesperson for Compromís in Les Corts Valencianes, Joan Baldoví, insisted yesterday that the objective of his coalition is to achieve a "Valencian MEP" and this is what is being negotiated. A negotiation that, to this day, Baldoví recognized that it is with Sumar: "Today it is with Sumar, tomorrow, God will provide." In Compromís they assume that the most feasible way to achieve an agreement in the European Parliament is to go in coalition with Sumar and the parties in peripheral Spain that still support it. And based on the loyalty shown to date with Yolanda Díaz's team, they will negotiate hard to obtain a starting position on the confederal space list.
Despite playing again, as he usually does, with clichés, the response of the Compromís parliamentary spokesperson is not far from the official explanations of the coalition. The priority continues to be a good agreement with those of Yolanda Díaz that gives a starting position to Compromís and allows it to have a MEP in Brussels. However, the same sources admit to La Vanguardia that if the negotiations do not come to fruition "alternatives will be sought."
