The collapse of the PSOE and the victory of the PP in the Galician elections, the lack of agreement with Junts on the Amnesty law, already with the deadline for the agreement of March 7, or the uncertainty about the first general budgets of the legislature , could lead one to think that the President of the Government faces enormous pressure or that his mandate is already cornered. Nothing could be further from the truth.
Pedro Sánchez himself, in an informal conversation with the journalists accompanying him this Wednesday on his trip to Rabat, has shown himself absolutely convinced that he will exhaust the legislature, and has at the same time rejected any pressure from the calendar. "The elections are in 2027, I have all the time in the world to process things," he assured. "There will be four years of legislature, like the previous one," stressed the head of the Executive.
Despite the socialist electoral collapse in the Galician elections last Sunday, Sánchez has refused to make a catastrophic reading. Furthermore, the main national reading that in his opinion this electoral call has had has been the threat that he has posed to the leader of the PP, Alberto Núñez Feijóo. "They had called for internal primaries," he noted about the PP, after having carried out, in his opinion, "an erratic campaign" and even having "neutralized his only speech" of opposition, after his turn on amnesty and pardons. .
Sánchez has assumed the poor result of the PSOE in Galicia. "The great lesson for us is that we have to consolidate leadership," he said of his candidate, José Ramón Gómez Besteiro, who saw "his natural leadership disabled" for seven years, due to some judicial accusations that, finally, were dismissed. nothing.
"We must be better," he acknowledged. But he has argued that the succession of electoral calls has prevented the PSOE from facing "a process of renewal of our own organization." In the case of Galicia, he highlighted that "we have very good results in municipal elections and we are very competitive in general, above average." But he has recognized a problem of "consolidation of the autonomous project." "There is a very clear duality of the vote," he highlighted. Sánchez has assured that another lesson from these elections is that "without the PSOE as an alternative, change is impossible" in Galicia. "Either the PSOE leads it or it is very difficult," he concluded.
Sánchez, on the other hand, has once again assumed that he will reach an agreement with Junts to unblock the Amnesty law, despite admitting that there is still no news on the matter. "There is going to be an Amnesty law," Sánchez stated, without a shadow of a doubt.
