PP and Vox reject the amnesty in the Valencian Courts in a tense debate

The Valencian Courts will approve this Thursday, with the votes in favor of PP and Vox, a Non-Law Proposition to reject "any type of amnesty or generalized pardon" and seek agreements between the majority parties to prevent "Spanish society from being subjected to the blackmail of the independentists". A vote that will take place tomorrow but that this Wednesday has generated a tense and heated debate to the point that the PSPV trustee, Rebeca Torró, has asked for protection from the president of Les Corts, Llanos Massó, who has called on all deputies not to question each other.

During the debate, the popular Valencians rejected an amendment from the socialists that called for urging "the Government of Spain to continue making dialogue, within the constitutional framework, the tool to improve coexistence between Catalans and between them and the rest of Spain." .

In his speech, the PP ombudsman, Miguel Barrachina, assumed that the amnesty has already been agreed with ERC and regretted that the socialist leader Pedro Sánchez has already decided to eliminate the separation of powers: “It will be politics that decides who goes into jail and who gets out.” For this reason, the popular leader has asked the Valencian left to stop “acting as a doormat for Catalan nationalism” and to rebel. “Do not become servants of Pedro Sánchez,” indicated the PP spokesperson, remembering figures such as Felipe González or Nicolás Redondo Terreros.

PSOE deputy José Muñoz has regretted that the PP's first initiative as the governing party is an initiative that "does not affect Valencians" and has criticized the attempt to "turn Les Corts against a battering ram against the government of Spain." Muñoz has pointed out that "in the face of hatred and confronting Spaniards it will work, the Socialist Party will bet on dialogue and the future." "Come on, come on," they have responded from the ranks of the parties that support the Government.

The deputy spokesperson for Compromís, Isaura Navarro, has condemned the attack on a councilor from her party for defending the amnesty and has framed it in the atmosphere of tension that the right is creating. Navarro has made it clear that her party will not support the proposal tomorrow because "where the PP creates problems, Compromís is committed to finding solutions."

For his part, Vox parliamentarian José María Llanos has shown his group's support for his partner's initiative because he understands that the amnesty represents "the euthanasia of the constitutional system" and that it is done to "favor Puigdemont." For this reason, he has indicated, as Santiago Abascal already did, that "the Spanish people have the right to defend themselves respecting the law and they will do so."
