• The claim The PP affirms that it will try to form a government alone without Vox and is open to negotiating even with the PSOE

  • The response García-Gallardo (Vox): "We are not going to abstain. We will not be anyone's crutch"

Alfonso Fernández Mañueco does not want to govern in coalition with Vox.

Pablo Casado, neither.

The barons don't even want to hear about that possibility.

And the question that everyone outside of them asks is how the popular ones are going to be able to avoid Santiago Abascal's demand with the results of Castilla y León in hand, since the PP only reaches an absolute majority in the Cortes in two ways : with Vox, with whom it far exceeds it, and with the PSOE, with whom it seems like a chimera to agree on permanent support for the four years of the legislature.

The objective of Mañueco and Génova is firm and, most importantly, shared: the bet is to govern alone in the Board.

It is to avoid by all means a mixed executive, which for the PP would be to cross a line that it has never crossed and that would not be well seen by heavyweights within the party or by its European partners.

Until now, the PP had only closed agreements with Vox to provide external coverage to their governments, but never to share management, responsibilities or a common program, which included Vox's ideological measures.

This will is basically reflected in seeking the abstention of Vox or the PSOE in order to invest Mañueco as president of Castilla y León and, from there, that the PP can play with variable geometry.

But tied a monochrome government.

That PP plan involves deactivating Vox's force and considerably reducing the need for its seats.

The first step would be to reach agreements with the various local platforms: Soria ¡Ya!

(three seats), Unión del Pueblo Leonés (three) and Por Ávila (one).

With these three parties and their 31 attorneys, the PP would reach 38 seats.

Three of the absolute majority.

That could be one more if he managed to convince Ciudadanos.

In this way, the

popular

believe that they would minimize the need they have for Vox and that they would lower their negotiating strength to claim to enter the government.

This scenario supports the thesis that Vox could not vote against a PP government, because its voters would not understand it.

If Abascal is not able to withdraw, there is always the option of seeking a partial abstention from the PSOE.

It would no longer be one of its 28 attorneys, but only two or three of them, and that the socialists could sell as a small sacrifice for a greater purpose: to prevent Vox from entering a government.

Mañueco is open to negotiating even with the PSOE to form a single-color government

The general secretary of the PP, Teodoro García Egea, began today with that pressure on Vox.

He said that Abascal would have to "explain the meaning of his vote" and "respond to his actions" if he "blocks" a solo PP government.

"I ask everyone to set their sights high," he stressed in an interview on Onda Cero.

For García Egea, it is necessary to see "what possibilities of support the PP has and, based on that, see what seats are necessary in each case", because there are "other forces that could join in giving stability to the government", giving ground to the platforms localists.

Genoa's will is not to form a coalition with Vox because "it is the moment in which citizens can judge a program, a project and a government of a few acronyms."

"The experiences of the coalition governments that we have seen so far are not being satisfactory and I believe that they are not serving the people as the people deserve the rulers to act," she said.

Genoa warns Vox that "it will have to explain" if it chooses to "block" the PP

In the PP they are aware that they are in a "transcendental" moment, that they are gambling with this decision.

In addition, Mañueco has the closed support of barons such as Alberto Núñez Feijóo or Juanma Moreno to resist at all costs and not open the door to Vox.

Another thing is the position that Isabel Díaz Ayuso can take, who already altered the campaign plans when she accepted the pacts with those of Abascal, against the criteria of the PP candidate.

Mañueco stressed yesterday that the negotiation and the agreements are going to be his thing, nobody else's.

That Genoa can give an opinion but not decide, because it will be the criteria of the PP of Castilla y León that will prevail.

And that criterion right now is to avoid a mixed government at all costs.

That is why the candidate opened the door yesterday to negotiate an abstention with the PSOE.

He is aware that he will depend on "what is the will of the PSOE and the ability to reach an agreement", but he stressed that he does not rule out being able to do so at all.

Mañueco will speak with "all" the political forces.

Board sources point out that the idea is that the round of talks begin next week, so it will be then when it begins to be tested if the PP's plan to divest itself of Vox can work.

In the hypothetical case of saving the investiture, popular sources point out that for Mañueco "agreeing on each law" with other parties "is not a problem" because if something has been shown in this time it is that "his way of acting" is the agreement.

For the rest, the PP meets this Tuesday in Genoa to its National Executive Committee, where Casado will make his first public intervention after the elections.

A closing of ranks is expected for the objective of governing alone, just as Feijóo did in public yesterday, also opposed to integrating Vox.
