He does not deny the existence of the document, but believes that it is a smokescreen because the Executive “did not consider it to be binding”
MADRID, 16 Ago. (EUROPA PRESS) –
The PP has accused the Government this Tuesday of “political” trilerism for “leaking” a document that shows that Pablo Casado’s leadership agreed with the PSOE on the reform of the Judiciary in the fall of 2021 and believes that it is a “curtain of smoke” because until now “no member of the Executive” had made reference to it or had valued it since the arrival of Alberto Núñez Feijóo.
At a press conference, the Deputy Secretary for Regional and Local Coordination, Pedro Rollán, explained that after Feijóo assumed the presidency of the PP and “given the commitment to comply from A to Z of the Constitution”, they guaranteed to deliver a new document to the Government on the renewal of judicial powers.
In this regard, Rollán has highlighted that, at that time, “not even the Prime Minister (Pedro Sánchez) made reference to any previously signed document” because “the position of the new leadership of the PP was perfectly understood, and therefore did not value any type of previous document”.
According to Rollán, what has happened is that the government preferred not to give importance to that document and, after it was published in the newspaper El Paçís, “today little more than puts it before the 10 Commandments.” In this sense, he has disfigured that if any previous document had been admitted in the Executive “they would have reacted a little earlier”, because “a few months have already passed” and therefore “it is one more smokescreen to which we are accustomed this Exhausted and dying government”.
However, he has clarified that the current leadership of the PP “does not doubt” that the document exists, but has insisted that the Government itself “did not grant it a valid status at any time.” “We do not deny the existence (of the document), what we do deny and affirm is that the Government did not consider it to be binding,” he stressed.
Likewise, he has denounced that 48 hours before the expiration of the term in which the PP would have assumed the commitment to deliver the new document, “Sánchez decided to expressly reform the renewal of the CGPJ granting it powers that he himself had previously cut off” , has said.
For all these reasons, he stressed that “all these lurches and inconsistencies” are still being paid for by Spanish families, and that the President of the Executive, instead of working to provide solutions, “is enjoying a vacation.”
