Pedro Sánchez closes the door to a hypothetical "free" support of Pablo Iglesias to avoid repeated elections in extremis . A scenario by which United We could make you President of the Government without any counterpart of program or presence in the Government to move immediately afterwards to make opposition. "It would be a dead end that does not deserve Spanish citizenship," said acting spokeswoman Isabel Celaá, implying that the socialist leader would refuse to appear for an investiture under those conditions, even if she had the mathematical guarantees of being elected. .

Given the possibility of this last-minute play by Iglesias to point out to the Executive as the culprit of the elections, the PSOE messages begin to underline each day with more intensity than the pact with United We can have to go beyond the investiture . That has to have a long journey. Include the Budgets and also the full legislature to ensure that it is a Government with "stability" and duration and that it will not fall in the coming months.

This Friday, expressly, has publicly warned that this situation would be dangerous and, therefore, unacceptable. "We do not visualize a scenario in which an investiture can be reached without a collaboration later by the political forces," said Celaá. "I do not believe that any political force can already be in that drift," he stressed.

For the spokeswoman of the acting Executive, the Executive would be taken to a cul-de-sac ("a dead end") or a "dark corner" that "deserves neither the Spanish citizenship nor the political forces of this country."

Precisely, Yolanda Díaz, one of the representatives of Unidos Podemos yesterday at the meeting with the PSOE, has warned in RNE that in the case that the purple ones deliver the votes "free" to the PSOE to enable the investiture of Sanchez, "is more than likely "to hinder" extraordinarily their government action "throughout the legislature.

The commitment of the PSOE is to close an agreement with United We can around a joint government program with the "conviction" and "determination" that "there will be no coalition government" with the formation of Pablo Iglesias.

However, Celaá has offered United We "an active and powerful participation" with "presence and action" in "high positions in institutions that are not necessarily of Government but that do represent the State". He has not wanted to specify which or where, but links with the proposal of the other day by Carmen Calvo for entry into public bodies. Yesterday the delegation of United We can expressly asked for this to the members of the PSOE and, according to the sources consulted, they did not clarify anything about it. Now, a few hours later, they are not clarified how, but they are told that there may be "powerful formulas" to participate in "state tasks" other than ministries.

Celaá has used this week's PSOE meetings with PNV, ERC and PRC to emphasize that United We can be the "missing" group to join the agreement. To persuade them to do so, in addition to the "powerful" participation, the spokeswoman has appealed to the possibility of modifying part of the 370 program measures presented by Sánchez or to incorporate new ones. "Many of these measures are open to negotiation and we don't know what is left until the end of it. There are differences but we have room to go," he said.

In this regard, he has delved into the fact that the program agreement is a third way between the coalition and the government alone defending each party. Insisting that Sanchez offers a "triple guarantee system" so that Unidos Podemos knows that the program agreement will be fulfilled. Although he admits the important current differences, Celaá has stressed that the relevant thing is that "lost trust" be recovered these days.

For this, the teams of the PSOE and United We will meet again in the next few days and it seems that Pedro Sánchez and Pablo Iglesias will do so later, who remain without date to unblock a situation that today is totally blocked and with great possibilities of ending up in An electoral replay on November 10.
