If there are no surprises, the president of the PP of Aragon, Jorge Azcón, will be invested as the new president of the community on Friday by virtue of the eighty-point agreement that the people signed in their parliamentary seat last week. The popular leader, who today offers his inauguration speech to the Courts of Aragon, is preparing an executive with ten ministries, of which two will be for Vox, after the coalition pact initialed on Friday. Everything points to the fact that these two departments that will be in the hands of the ultra-nationalists will be management bodies without powers in the most important institutions or large budget items.
The hard core of the new government will be made up of people related to the president. A strong weight will be the second vice-president, Mar Vaquero, who will concentrate economic power in the Ministry of Economy and Industry. Another of Azcón's loyalists, Roberto Bermúdez de Castro, will control the public coffers as finance minister, while the president's right-hand man, Octavio López, will be the head of Development and Housing, so he will have control of the key logistics platforms to attract business projects.
For his part, Vox's spokesman, Alejandro Nolasco, will serve as first vice-president in charge of the Ministry of Territorial Development, Depopulation and Justice. However, this position will not have decision-making power over the General Interest Plans of Aragon (PIGA) or the Teruel Investment Fund (Fite), which are transferred to other departments. Something similar happens with the Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock, which also assumes the ultra-right, which will not have its two most weighty bodies until now: the Aragonese Institute of Environmental Management (Inaga) and the Aragonese Institute of ' Water.
In addition to Vox's seven votes, which already guarantee him an absolute majority, Azcón will also have the support of the only deputy of the Aragonese Party, with whom he closed an investiture agreement yesterday. This latest support allows Azcón, at least, in front of the gallery, to sell a "broad-based" pact to try to dilute the coalition with Vox.
