• Pedro Sánchez rejects Pablo Iglesias's last attempt: a temporary coalition to prove they are reliable

Confused faces. The last meeting between the teams of the PSOE and United We left touched the purple . The forcefulness in the refusal of the Socialists to recover the coalition offer of the month of July and dispatch with cold boxes any option of co-government forced the party to move, to avoid the role of guilty of the electoral repetition and avoid internal fissures in the group , where sectors of it are more prone to other ways beyond the coalition in order to avoid new elections.

Despite the "cordial" environment in which the event took place, the end was abrupt. The strategy of Unidos Podemos happens to show that what was worth in July should be worth two months later. From the PSOE, Carmen Calvo addressed the purple team to end the dialogue until United We can resign from the coalition, until it was removed from the negotiating table. Something unexpected in the envoys of Iglesias, seen the good tone reigning, unlike the penultimate appointment.

"They have no desire to reach any agreement. What they want is for us to spend four years voting for the laws that they feel like we vote. That is why we do not stand for elections. That is why we concur in their lists, which is why that we are not going to do under any circumstances, " Enrique Santiago , a member of United Podemos and a member of the negotiating team, said Wednesday in a meeting with supporters of the party.

The moods and feelings prevailing in United We can lead Iglesias to convene a meeting in Congress on Tuesday night with the negotiating team and representatives of the confluences. In it, impressions are exchanged, different visions and opinions, different positions and nuances are contributed, but it is approved that Iglesias offer the next day to Sanchez a meeting between them. And as a result of the call to which it is committed, the proposal for a temporary coalition government that can be broken after one year.

The proposal is not trivial: "Agree on a coalition (program and teams) based on that of the last proposal of the PSOE and the last proposal of United We Can", to be evaluated in one year. With it, Iglesias tries to calm the internal voices that are committed to a programmatic agreement, to avoid electoral repetition, such as IU or the common ones. The measures are referred to, the message that they do not cling to the armchairs is transferred. The proposal, understands Iglesias, is viable for approval by all its partners. In the meetings, the leader of Podemos has consolidated that his 42 deputies vote the same if there is a new investiture.

"Plurality enriches, it is what strengthens the project, but we cannot let plurality end up becoming elements of internal fights, of confrontations for issues that are not the most important. Ending discussions in conflicts makes the oligarchies die of laugh every time they do not see stripping for stupidities, "was another of the reflections of Santiago in the act with supporters.

In the dome of Podemos many do not quite understand that Sanchez is determined to go to an electoral repetition, with the purples in a delicate situation and with churches separated from Moncloa . In any case, their strategy is to show that they continue to look at the present and are not in pre-election mode - as in reality all parties are. That is why his determination to be proactive in the last days. The result they are looking for is the headlines repeated these days: "Pedro Sánchez rejects ...".
