"We reject any type of amnesty or generalized pardon, not individualized, for any Spanish citizen, whatever their crime." This is one of the principles that socialists will have to vote on in regional parliaments and town councils. It is the first point of the motions that the PP will present throughout Spain, in an attempt to get the socialists to retract due to the possibility of Pedro Sánchez negotiating an amnesty with Carles Puigdemont for his investiture.
In addition, one of the motions encourages the two majority parties to seek State agreements that prevent Spanish society from being subjected to the blackmail of pro-independence parties or being forced into a repeat election.
The second of the motions tries to put the socialists in the disjunctive position of voting against "any project that tries to break equality or to recognize citizen or territorial privileges in any part of Spain and that attempts against what the Spanish Constitution provides" .
The confrontation between the PSOE and the PP over the alleged amnesty that the Socialists would be negotiating with Puigdemont, does not seem to be cooling down. The former president of the Spanish government José María Aznar responded yesterday on the Cope channel to the accusations of a "coup" by the minister spokesperson, Isabel Rodríguez, and of "calling for national rebellion", in the words of the vice president Yolanda Diaz
Aznar considers these criticisms "proper of an autocracy", to which the Executive intends to bring Spain, an autocracy in which the one who is not with him is an anti-Spanish, a fascist or a coup plotter". But the former popular president does not want the debate to focus on these accusations, because that is what the socialists want to do, he says, divert the debate on what is important, the amnesty, which in his opinion is "an invitation to the separatists to do it again", and remembers that the independence supporters "have already said they would do it again". And they will, he says, but "nothing would happen." They are amnestied again and that's it," the ex-president points out ironically.
That is why he insists on calling for citizen mobilization, because what is happening affects the majority of Spaniards, who want the Constitution to remain the pillar of coexistence in Spain, and to ensure the continuity of the Spanish nation. Aznar believes that this mobilization must be done because he sees Pedro Sánchez as capable of yielding to the pro-independence parties, given that, he said, "Sánchez is not a captive of separatism, he is an accomplice". The reason is that the president of the Spanish government in office "could choose other partners, who for him are coup plotters - with reference to the PP-, but he does not, because he prefers to agree with those who have made a coup" of the State.
