García-Page, in a meeting with Moreno, Mazón and López Miras: "They are about to extradite me"

The tensions between the leadership of the PSOE and the president of Castilla-La Mancha, Emiliano García-Page, are increasingly explicit and palpable. García-Page continues to express both publicly and privately his discordant position regarding the negotiation and agreements of Pedro Sánchez's Executive with ERC and Junts on the amnesty law. A recent example of this is the conversation he had with the popular presidents of the Region of Murcia, Fernando López Miras; Andalusia, Juanma Moreno; and Valencian Community, Carlos Mazón; where he claimed to be about to be "extradited" from the PSOE.

In an informal conversation during the so-called 'Fitur plot' between the four regional leaders, as revealed by Antena 3, Page began by explaining the "argument scheme" in the request of the autonomies for a leveling fund until the new system is approved. of autonomous financing. "There is an objective figure, recognized even by the Ministry, of imbalance in the model," Page pointed out, just before responding to Juanma Moreno that "They are practically about to extradite me." To which Mazón replied "But nothing happens, then they give you amnesty."

Page: "This is the plot outline"

Mazón: "We are going to arrive equally"

Page: "There is an objective figure, recognized even by the Ministry, of mismatch with the model"

Mazón "I'm going to take it to the Valencian Cortes."

(...)

Mazón: "The four of us eat one day"

Moreno: "For you it's more complicated" (looking at Page)

(...)

Page: "We are saying the same thing, but separately"

Mazón: "Today's photo..."

Page: "They are practically on the verge of... extraditing me"

Mazón: "But nothing happens, then they give you amnesty"

Page: "That's what they told me the other day in a meeting (...) I mean, they're sons of bitches..."

Moreno (laughing): "If he messes with you, we'll do it from the outside (makes a circle gesture)

(...)

You look (at Page): "You keep them nervous all day"

Mazón: "You like that"

Page: "I suffer, you can't imagine it" (...) What the PSOE has done is extremely tense, throwing out every god who opposes it"

The Castilian-Manchego president already showed his dissatisfied position with the party earlier this Wednesday. Page took advantage of his attendance at the Madrid Tourism Fair to express a forceful criticism against the amendment to the Amnesty law agreed upon the day before between the PSOE, Junts and Esquerra. “There is no good terrorism and bad terrorism,” Page warned. “Terrorism is terrorism, and it means having the intention to generate terror,” he stressed. In the independence protests in Catalonia, he assured, “many people organizedly wanted to generate social terror.” The president of La Mancha also denounced that, in his opinion, the PSOE is right now “on the outskirts of the Constitution, about to step on the constitutional border,” in the face of the repeated demands of Carles Puigdemont and the pro-independence groups.

Following the words of the Catellano-Mancha president, the first vice president of the Government, María Jesús Montero, considered this Thursday that the president of Castilla-La Mancha, Emiliano García-Page, seeks notoriety by disagreeing with the Government and placing the PSOE in "the outskirts of the Constitution" and has warned him that "that is not the way".

Upon his arrival at an informative breakfast in Madrid, Montero assured that the PSOE always works to guarantee the Constitution despite "the attacks that it has received these days from the PP, which has even gone so far as to affirm that there is no Constitution in this country." ".
