The Government accuses the PP of "Catalanophobia" and is suspicious of its changes in speech

The PP has given so many versions of the pardons that it was supposedly willing to grant in exchange for an investiture that the Government has allowed itself to describe as “delirious and mutants.” In any case, the Executive of Pere Aragonès belittles any declaration of intentions by the popular that goes along the lines of favoring independence interests or any attempt to soften their position. No goodwill is believed because, according to the spokesperson, Patrícia Plaja, The words of Alberto Núñez Feijóo always have a common point or common thread: “Catalanophobia.” With this premise, the Government has stated today that it will never sit down “to negotiate an investiture with the PP and Vox”

“They fuel hatred against Catalonia,” Plaja stressed at the press conference after the Executive Council meeting this morning. “Regardless of this improbable and almost surreal chapter by Feijóo, they are the spearhead of the repression against Catalonia,” she added. However, he has clarified that the current Government is willing to debate day-to-day issues, such as education, drought or economic issues with the PP, but he has never, he reiterated, discuss an investiture of a popular candidate with the extreme right.

The distrust of the Catalan Cabinet with the PP so that it lends itself to solving the political conflict between Catalonia and the State is reaching its peak. “We do not believe the words of Feijóo, his apparatus or any popular position,” Plaja has come to say, who at the same time has stressed that “those responsible for so much repression can hardly be part of the solution.” “They are the arsonist firefighter,” she concluded.

“If we lived in a normal political context, what you would have to do is apologize to all Catalans for so much repression and for all the speeches that encourage some traits that point to Catalans," Playa responded to the PP leader. Plaja He has criticized the PP for playing the "Catalanophobia" card in the Galician elections because they believe that "it gives them votes", and he has urged the popular party to bet on "constructive policies".

Plaja has also referred to the words this morning from the general secretary of ERC, Marta Rovira. The Catalan leader has stated that the PP contacted her party to invest Feijóo and that the Republicans immediately rejected any negotiations. The Government spokesperson has taken advantage of these statements to launch a veiled criticism of Junts: “All the protagonists have explained what the potential and possible alliances were and others have also explained which ones are absolutely unviable.” The Government and Esquerra believe, therefore, that JxCat could ally with the PP in the future.
