• Second Vice President. Pablo Iglesias accuses Vox of "wanting to carry out a coup" but "not daring"

Equality Minister Irene Montero has accused the PP and Vox on Friday of "weeks calling for army insubordination", which they have urged "to act" saying "that this is a criminal and illegitimate government."

In an interview in 'The TVE breakfasts', collected by Europa Press, Montero has referred to the "statements of Vox leaders", and has pointed out that one of the party's deputies said no "the government of the State that the nation and that the State Security Forces and Bodies have sworn by the former ". "Therefore, encouraging rebellion and uprising," he added.

In addition, he has pointed out the general secretary of the 'popular', Teodoro García Egea, for his words from the rostrum during the control session to the Government on Wednesday, when he assured that more than a hundred years ago, the founder of the Civil Guard, the Duke of Ahumada, "refused to carry out an unjust order from General Narváez."

"We see how Abascal and Cayetana make a speech that is not only incendiary but also describes the government as criminal and saying that the head of state or a government of technicians in which Vox and the PP are included take over. Part of their problem it has to do with being in the opposition. I don't think we should keep quiet when they are in this campaign of tension, "Montero said.

"It is not incompatible to make policies to help people and build the social shield, to do things that improve people's lives, with telling their lordships four truths. They have been calling for army insubordination for weeks, saying that they should act, saying that this is a criminal and illegitimate government, "he recalled.

On the other hand, this Friday he defended the second vice president of the Government, Pablo Iglesias, after the PP spokesman in Congress, Cayetana Álvarez de Toledo, accused him of being "the son of a terrorist." "He calls a terrorist whom Franco called a terrorist", Montero lamented. IGLESIAS SAID TO VOX "FOUR TRUTHS TO THE FACE"

Thus, the head of Equality has assured that "the serious thing is not that" I accuse the father of Iglesias as a terrorist, but that he is "launching a message that criminalizes the brave Democrats who gambled the type" so that Spain would live "in freedom "

"It is serious because it criminalizes those who fought against one of the bloodiest democracy in Europe," Montero lamented, later pointing out that "perhaps" Álvarez de Toledo "is more than" 'Billy the Child'.

Along these lines, Montero has criticized the "policies of tension and hatred" in which the "extreme right and the PP have been installed" for weeks. In his opinion, "the most edifying thing for citizens is to present concrete proposals to get ahead and so that" Spain "can come out strong and leave no one behind."

All in all, he believes that this is not "incompatible" with "telling the right four truths to the face", as he believed Iglesias himself did this Thursday in the reconstruction commission of the Lower House. In it, the vice president accused Vox of wanting to "carry out a coup d'état", which caused the abandonment of his spokesman, Iván Espinosa de los Monteros.
