The leader of the Popular Party, Pablo Casado, has disfigured this Sunday the integration of the last person in charge of the terrorist group ETA, David Pla, in the new direction of Sortu, "Bildu's ally arm", for which he has demanded from the Government of Spain "break any negotiation and support" for the aforementioned formation.

In his speech at the closing of the

, held by videoconference from

, the president of the PP recalled that this Sunday marks the 27th anniversary of the murder of the former deputy and deputy mayor of the Party Popular in the City Council of San Sebastián

.

"Yesterday his family had to see how he was humiliated by elevating Sortu to a high position, the allied arm of Bildu, who was the political chief of ETA. Wasn't it enough to have another former terrorist like (Bildu's general coordinator, Arnaldo) Otegi at the head of Bildu?", he lamented, to refer to Pla as one of the "causes of so much pain, murder, kidnapping and tears in the

".

Given this, Casado has appealed to the Government, in statements collected by Europa Press, to stop "whitewashing the heirs of Batasuna" by "a handful of votes" and to "prolong the stay in Moncloa." Mr. Sánchez, you have to break any negotiation and any support for Bildu", he claimed.

"The same thing that is happening in the transfers to the Batasuno environment, we see it in the transfers to Catalan independentists," Casado said, on the other hand, to refer to the boos that

the

Catalans received on Saturday in

, including its president,

, who had to be escorted by agents on his visit to the municipality for a training act.

"Is that the democratic normality, harmony and coexistence to which Sánchez appeals?", the leader of the PP has questioned in this regard, to defend that for him coexistence is "the law, respecting those who do not think as one" and that " no one" threatens them.

In relation to

, Casado has demanded that the President of the Government state if he "agrees" with "what his ministers have said about independence", referring to statements by the head of Equality, Irene Montero, or the person in charge of the portfolio of Universities, Joan Subirats, who have shown their support for the Catalans to be able to vote to change the structure of the State.

"If you don't agree, you have to stop them today, and if you agree, you have to openly say that by being in power you are capable of splitting off Spain, of underselling a Catalonia that will never be able to be independent," he demanded.

Support for farmers and ranchers

On the other hand, Casado has again attacked Sánchez also for the declarations of ministers regarding the primary sector, for which he has urged the Government to show its "support", statements precisely coinciding with the demonstration of thousands of people in Madrid in support of the rural world.

"It cannot be that Vice President Yolanda Díaz says that farmers are slave owners. That would have been the direct dismissal in any country in the world. But the last straw is that the Minister of Consumption, Alberto Garzón, arrives and says that ranchers are abusers and they export toxic meat. That would have meant cessation and rectification in any serious government, but not for Sánchez," he criticized.

In this sense, he lamented that the president "does not command" his government and has said that "deep down" he "agrees" with these "atrocities".

"I say it today to the farmers and ranchers who demonstrate in Madrid: the Government agrees with Garzón," he added.

Regarding the field, he has also rejected that the Executive ask to "applaud" the PAC when "it has meant a loss of 5,000 million euros for Spain, while it has urged the use of European funds for this sector, or to "close" water problems.

European funds

Thus, Casado has also taken the opportunity to insist on his criticism of the distribution of European funds, which, he has said, are "green and digital", as Sánchez defends, but "green because he gives them to Bildu" and "digital because he gives them to by finger", he ironized.

"The funds are not for the Government, for socialist mayors and socialist policies (...). They are to create employment, give more opportunities," he added, to underline that

Europeans have already warned Spain that "it cannot keep rolling" and "has to make structural reforms" with the funds "for job creation and economic growth".

Casado has thus stretched out his hand to manage the distribution of funds with an independent authority: "Mr. Sánchez, since you are incapable of managing European funds, take the hand of the PP, let's make an independent authority, with city councils, autonomies, opposition and representatives of employers and workers.

With this, the funds would be distributed, in his opinion, with "transparency, honesty and efficiency", he argued.

"The European partners deserve that their solidarity does not end in possible corruption or patronage projects," he defended.
