  • Analysis 'Kill' Puigdemont, the great hidden objective of the negotiation table of the PSOE and ERC

Just a few hours after meeting with the president of

Catalonia

, Pere Aragonès, and restarting the dialogue table between the Government and the Generalitat, Pedro Sánchez stopped in Aragon to meet with Javier Lambán, precisely one of the socialist barons most critical of the pro-independence and distrustful of the dialogue table. An appointment with a political background, in which Sánchez has exposed Catalonia to the obligation to share with

Aragon

the candidacy for the

2030 Winter Olympics

, since the Generalitat wanted the candidacy project to be

Pyrenees-Barcelona

and not

Aragon-Catalonia

as the

COE

and the

Government

wanted

.

"I want to convey to all Aragonese that this project design through the COE will be equal to equal. It is the two communities on an equal footing that are going to develop the candidacy," said the Chief Executive. Although initially the original project started as a Pirineus-Barcelona 2030 candidacy, later Aragon joined, with the approval and agreement of the Government and the COE, which endorsed the joint project. Despite this, the Generalitat showed its intention to promote its project, without giving space to Aragon in the name of the candidacy. This triggered the controversy.

Beyond the sporting aspect, the issue had jumped to the political and territorial sphere.

The Government and the COE endorsed the Aragon-Catalonia project, but the

Government's

claim

to take center stage led Lambán to leave the project due to the "disloyalty" and the "secondary" treatment offered to his community.

A circumstance that angered Aragon and put sectors of the PSOE on alert, as they considered that they could not give in to the demand of Catalonia, which they accused of "unfair".

Endorsing Aragonès in this they considered that it would entail preferential treatment, since it was not what was foreseen and agreed with the COE.

More fuel for the fire in full dialogue between

La Moncloa

and the Government, which already worries a part of the socialists.

"We have always been few but never little"

"We consider ourselves brothers of the people of Catalonia. Aragon considers that it has many titles to claim itself as a fundamental actor in the construction of Spain, but to claim itself on an equal footing with everyone else. We are no more than anyone but also no less than anyone else because since From the demographic point of view, let's be few. The Aragonese have always been few but never little, "was Lambán's claim in a joint appearance with Pedro Sánchez after the meeting they have held and which has also been attended by the Minister of Culture and Sports. , Miquel Iceta.

Thus, the meeting between Sánchez and Lambán has served to appease spirits and discomfort.

The President of Aragon has even stated that this joint candidacy is a "State political operation of enormous scope" and that it would involve Catalonia in a "project in which the rest of Spain is involved through Aragon, which is a community fully concerned with what happens with Spain ".

A line that has been followed by the Prime Minister, who describes the joint candidacy, "under equal conditions", as a "project of the country, of the State, of two communities that feel involved."

Sánchez has not only referred to this bid for the 2030 Winter Olympics, but also to the joint bid of

Spain

and

Portugal

for the

2030

Soccer World Cup.

"It is progressing at a good pace and we have hopeful news. The year 2030 will be it can turn into 1992 for the country in sporting terms, in terms of international visibility and from the point of view of the economic development of areas that need public investment and greater attention from public institutions ".
