Sumar will take this Saturday, with the election of its national Executive, a new step towards its implementation with which to provide itself with greater muscle and stability, in a context of turbulence for some of its partners. Both external, as is the case of the PSOE after the period of reflection opened by Pedro Sánchez, and internal, with the doubts expressed by IU towards the confederal project in the process of renewing its leadership. A situation that led Sumar's spokesman, Ernest Urtasun, to speak out, warning that "no far-right group is going to stop the policies that we are going to deploy as a result of the result of 23-J."
The photo of the first Executive that Yolanda Díaz will lead, precisely, will not be complete. The partners of the second vice president and Minister of Labor and Social Economy in this project will not be represented for now, neither in this first direction nor in the State Coordination group - the highest body between assemblies -, as was determined before the storm surge. This occurred after the complicated preparation of the European lists in which the Comuns and Compromís obtained better starting positions than IU and Más Madrid, among others.
For all these reasons, the leadership of Sumar, which will have a maximum of 25 representatives, is currently configured only with members of the parent nucleus, leaving the rest of the positions vacant, but reserved for the partners (with a maximum of two per party).
The State Coordination group is made up of 117 people, 80 of them from Sumar and 37 associates, who are those who will not be covered for now.
If there are no unforeseen events, they will be part of all the management spaces of Sumar los COMMONS, IU, Más Madrid, Verdes Equo, Contigo Navarra and the Andalusian People's Initiative.
Izquierda Unida is the only force that has left its relationship with Sumar up in the air, which will precisely be one of the central debates of its federal Assembly (May 18 and 19) to elect Alberto Garzón's successor, but everything indicates that they will continue in Yolanda Díaz's project.
