  • Investiture: Smaller parties tighten the nuts in exchange for the 'yes' to the investiture of Pedro Sánchez

The PNV also resists. For now. The Basque nationalists, who have seven seats in Congress , are not yet in a position to secure their yes to the investiture of Pedro Sánchez. This was explained by his parliamentary spokesman Aitor Esteban after his meeting with the negotiators of the PSOE. The Basque deputy admits that "there is a complicated bobbin lace" because in the investiture and in the subsequent governance many groups must participate and ensures that, by the PNV, "nothing has been closed yet" and "more clarifications are necessary" to your demands.

Its objectives in industrial matters, possible labor and fiscal reforms, infrastructure, social initiatives, pensions, competition issues and the problem of territoriality have been the elements discussed in the meeting in which "it has not been reached closed agreement ", in the words of the parliamentary spokesman. "We will see the meaning of the vote; the PNV has not yet decided," said Esteban.

For him, the interest in setting the investiture date as soon as possible is a sort of "cat and mouse game" he doesn't want to enter. What the Basque nationalist deputy warns is that if the PSOE wants to close an imminent investiture it should show "diligence" and respond to the demands and objections of each other quickly, "this very afternoon." "They should move token," he said.

The PNV disagrees with the way in which the Government of Pedro Sánchez has functioned to date, through decrees that came to the Chamber "already cooked." The Basque nationalists intend to tie the commitment that, in the future, the Executive initiatives be delivered to them so that they can present their objections and suggestions "before they reach the table of the Council of Ministers " and "before they are public" , has explained.

The last meetings held by the PSOE negotiators with the representatives of minority parliamentary forces have resulted in a common denominator: they all reserve the meaning of their vote in the investiture while waiting for the Socialists to accept their various conditions.
