  • PSOE and Podemos. Fail the meeting, run aground by the ministries

The first meeting between the PSOE and United We held this Thursday in Congress ended up becoming almost five hours of reproaches but culminated with 60 final minutes in which the two parties agreed what they would transmit to the media and were seen in " the following days".

The sources consulted differ on the date. Some suggest that the Socialists proposed directly on Monday and that Podemos stated that it seemed "too late." Others argue that the appointment was not closed and that he stayed in "the next few days." In any case, there was agreement around a new meeting, which was the PSOE who proposed . The meeting, despite maintaining absolute differences on the type of collaboration in a future Executive, did not end in a bang.

And he did not do it even though the first hours did not bear any fruit. The beginning of the meeting between the two negotiating teams -Carmen Calvo, Adriana Lastra and María Jesús Montero , by the PSOE, and Pablo Echenique and Ione Belarra , together with four members of the confluences and IU, Jaume Asens, Yolanda Díaz, Juantxo López from Uralde and Enrique Santiago , from Podemos-- it was practically a crossroads of criticism for the immovable positions of each one. The Socialists anchored in their refusal to open the door to the Coalition Government again - a Socialist Vice Presidency and three Ministries - and United We can now request that they recover this proposal, which they rejected in July.

The no to this offer led to a failed investiture. The PSOE now limits cooperation with purple training to a programmatic pact , with guarantees at the political and social level of compliance, and access to "high responsibilities" in state institutions and agencies outside the Council of Ministers. But Podemos' request remains intact: o Ministries or they will not give their votes to Pedro Sánchez.

The Socialists dedicated Thursday's appointment to explain their latest proposal but failed to specify what positions in the Administration they were referring to. And that, according to the sources consulted, the purple party asked for it. In an interview with La Ser Carmen Calvo, it was valid that the PSOE refers to organizations such as the National Securities Market Commission, the CIS or the Ombudsman . But none of them spoke yesterday. We can claim to clarify if it was the address of RTVE.

Without substantive progress beyond the consensus on a new meeting, the message that would be communicated to the media was also agreed. The result was that Lastra offered a more possible assessment of the meeting and Belarus more negative. Still both want to give a new opportunity to an approach. It is not at stake just to avoid electoral repetition but not to appear before public opinion and voters as responsible for it.
