United Podemos has parked the cordiality and peaceful coexistence of two Government partners to criticize and distance themselves from the PSOE on account of the management and decision of Juan Carlos I to leave Spain. However, the defense of Pedro Sánchez de la Corona, closing ranks with the institution on behalf of the entire Executive, thus bringing together the four purple representatives , sowed discomfort in the sectors of Unidas Podemos, which transferred pressure to Pablo Iglesias to manage this matter and maintain coherence in an Executive that undoubtedly protects the monarchy.

The commons , the Catalan sector of Podemos led by Ada Colau, soon expressed their discomfort at the position defended by Sánchez, distancing themselves from their arguments.

From United We can was charged from the outset with harshness against the decision of Juan Carlos I, against the management of his departure from the country and tried to lead the Government through this channel. Faced with the measure and the pause imposed among the socialist ministers, Pablo Iglesias described the situation as "flight" and pressured the PSOE warning that "a democratic government cannot look the other way, much less justify or greet behaviors that undermine dignity from a key institution such as the Head of State and that they are a fraud against justice. "

The aim was to distance themselves from the Socialists, to establish a profile in front of their own and to wrap the republicanism and social agitation with the halo of institutionality that is presumed to a government party. But all those efforts embodied by Iglesias himself, Irene Montero or Alberto Garzón, were buried at a stroke by Pedro Sánchez.

Colau: "Other people's shame"

The Prime Minister, without expressly mentioning his coalition partner, executed a clear correction: "The Government that I preside considers the constitutional pact fully in force." And before the debate encouraged by the purple on the republic and against the performance of the current monarchy, trying to stoke a referendum, settled: "Institutions are not judged, people are judged."

The position of the Prime Minister removed the foundations in Unidas Podemos. A key sector like the common ones did not hesitate to stand out and criticize Sánchez's position. Ada Colau herself, a key supporter for Iglesias, said: "Other people's shame and outrage. A formerly corrupt head of state has fled the country and the President merely says that how well he has left and that the talks are confidential. Shame".

Jaume Asens , president of the parliamentary group Unidas Podemos, a person of the highest confidence of Iglesias, spoke in the same line: "The appearance of President Sánchez has been disappointing. He shows very little critical sense in the face of the unworthy flight of the head of state The citizens deserve that the forces of the left are up to the task. "

Precisely, forces that Podemos defines on the left and with which it pressures the PSOE to agree, such as ERC and Bildu, did move tab this Tuesday requesting the appearance of the State Attorney General to account for their actions in relation to the alleged corruption of the environment of the Royal Family; or requesting the convocation of the Permanent Deputation of Congress with the following matter: Appearance of the first vice president, Carmen Calvo.

The demands of Anticapitalists

This same Monday, Izquierda Unida and the Communist Party of Spain , organizations to which Alberto Garzón belongs, again asked the Supreme Court to investigate Juan Carlos I for the alleged commission of various crimes, after this court filed a complaint they filed both parties in 2018 as they did not see a basis to process it.

United We can face the tessitura of reconciling its attack against the Head of State, past and present, with its permanence in a Council of Ministers in which the majority party bets to cut off any debate on the institution and proclaims that the Government, uniting Of course, in the concept to the ministers of United Podemos, he fully defends the constitutional pact.

"The Government must ensure that the emeritus complies with justice, returns what has been stolen and calls for a referendum; otherwise we will have to organize it from below, breaking the padlocks of '78," defended this Tuesday the MEP Miguel Urban , one of the founders of Podemos and Anticapitalists benchmark , current outside the party.

From Unidas Podemos there was no reaction to the position expressed by Sánchez, who appeared after a Council of Ministers that lasted throughout the morning of this Tuesday, and which was reached with threats and anger from the brutes for being separated from both the negotiation with Citizens as well as the management of the Juan Carlos case.
