• Analysis: Pedro Sánchez's offer to Podemos increases spending by more than 30,000 million in full slowdown
  • Politics.The PSOE faces the negotiation asking We can guarantees for the entire legislature

Message from Pedro Sánchez to United We can before the meeting that the PSOE has this afternoon with this party to try to close an agreement that avoids a new election on November 10. The president of the acting Government and general secretary of the PSOE has taken a brief intervention this morning, by presentation of his Minister of Economy , Nadia Calviño, at an Efe informational breakfast, to point out that "a good negotiation cannot have winners or losers ". He has done so after defending the "negotiating experience" of Calviño, his "prudent idealism." Because, according to Sánchez, in the times we live in, "the most useful policy is the one that knows how to offer solutions."

"To know how to negotiate is to want to negotiate, not to impose. The solution is always in the middle way," he said. And then he added, without having anything to do with the breakdown of the figure of Nadia Calviño, who can opt for a "third way" by an "intermediate exit between two antagonistic positions."

It has been his way of propping up the last offer he has made to Podemos. Neither the Coalition Government, which we can claim, despite the fact that in July Pablo Iglesias rejected a social vice-presidency and three Ministries and the investiture attempt failed, not just the programmatic pact now raised by the PSOE.

Sanchez's third way is to add to that agreement on the political action of a Socialist Executive, of course alone, a whole series of guarantees of compliance (follow-up commissions in the Treasury, Congress and Senate and control of civil society) and give entrance to Podemos in the Government but in what can be considered the periphery: "high responsibilities in institutions and organizations outside the Council of Ministers ".

In order for Iglesias to accept this exit, the Socialists face this afternoon the meeting with Podemos. Again Vice President Carmen Calvo and purple leader Pablo Echenique, in front. And Sanchez's public appeal to this training on the air: try to negotiate, let's find a solution between them. Its environment insists that in no case will they be offered again to occupy Ministries.
