The PP believes that Ciudadanos has been naive in its pact with the Government, given the "move" by Pedro Sánchez to also agree with Bildu, behind Inés Arrimadas' back. The 'popular' consulted assure that they have already warned the Cs leader that the president would prioritize "marketing" and "betray" him with his investiture partners, including the Basque left. "Cs will do badly in the long term" they assured yesterday morning in Genoa, where today they limit themselves to verifying how quickly this prediction has been consummated. "We warned them of what could happen to them," cut off popular sources .

In public, the PP asks Ciudadanos to explain why it agreed with a government that was negotiating with Bildu. The 'oranges' must clarify "if they knew the pact on labor reform," Ana Pastor said on Radio 4 of RNE on Thursday.

And for Teodoro García Egea, general secretary of the popular , "Sánchez has done something that we had already warned about, which is to betray Ciudadanos by agreeing with Bildu." "It will be difficult for this government to find any ally for the state of alarm" after this episode with Bildu, he added in Onda Cero, and he also does not see it very feasible that "Spain can last four years with this government."

Pablo Casado already warned yesterday that Sánchez "has once betrayed or despised all national or territorial political leaders." "And we have all taken good note," he added, in a veiled message to Inés Arrimadas.

Cs this morning criticized the agreement with Bildu, but it has been ratified in his pact, which he considers "essential". The oranges are partners of the PP in four autonomies and dozens of municipalities. In addition, they will attend the Basque elections in July together.

The PP spokeswoman in Congress, Cayetana Álvarez de Toledo, tweeted last night: "I honestly do not understand how Ciudadanos has been able to support this tricky and harmful extension." And the deputy secretary general for Territorial Policy, Antonio González Terol , used the same network to assess the agreement of the Government and Bildu: "More unemployment. More ETA. I hope this is the last time that Ciudadanos supports another state of alarm."

"The words of President Sánchez, with hidden pacts to seek his support, I think that today they leave a lot to be desired. You cannot fool everyone all the time," added Pastor, who is the spokesperson for the popular in the parliamentary commission for the "reconstruction", before the coronavirus.

Aznar criticizes Arrimadas' "unjustified" and "needless" support for the Government

The former Prime Minister José María Aznar has also criticized that Cs has given "yes" to the extension of the state of alarm at the same time that the Government agrees to repeal the labor reform "with the heirs of ETA, who are part of the government majority. " The support of the oranges seems "unjustified" and "unnecessary". "If you were a member of that party [Cs] today, you would not be very satisfied, it is the truth," he emphasized in an interview in Cope.

Regarding the PSOE and United We Can pact with Bildu, he said that "the crossing of red lines of good sense is so enormous that the consequences are serious." "It is like the one who digs a well and does not worry that the walls cannot collapse," he exemplified. "We are in the hands of an absolute irresponsible, accompanied by Chavistas, by communists and by separatists, and the results are on the table every day," he said.

Aznar has assured that the situation of the Spanish economy points to a "hecatomb" and has predicted "many social problems". In his opinion, the government of the coalition of PSOE and United Podemos has brought "again to the Spain of the hunger queues."
