Yolanda Díaz rules out promoting a candidacy for the Andalusian elections

The movements on the Andalusian left to present themselves to the

with a unitary candidacy have not yet borne any fruit.

The deep wound that divides those who in 2018 presented themselves under the common brand of Adelante Andalucía prevents proposing any type of consensus project.

The hope of some groups on the left had been placed, therefore, in the movement promoted by the minister of United We Can Yolanda Díaz, who aspires to lead a transversal candidacy in the next General Elections outside the formations that today represent the left in Congress.

But his is still an

and the Andalusian elections are just around the corner.

Díaz has neither the vocation nor the time frame to articulate a proposal for the regional elections.

This has been made clear this Thursday in

in which he has ruled out sponsoring an Andalusian candidacy in any way, ensuring that the process he has started

the Andalusian women.

Díaz has made today what is

since he has been in the Government of Pedro Sánchez, almost two and a half years ago.

In the same interview, he explained that the management of the pandemic, in the first place, and the negotiation for the labor reform had prevented him from going to this autonomous community to date, although he says he knows the region well and claims the investment of his Ministry: Almost 400 million euros in active employment policies in 2021 and 2,549 million in temporary employment regulation files (ERTE), "which have saved hundreds of thousands of companies and millions of workers."

What Yolanda Díaz calls

is a tour of Spain to take the country's temperature before deciding whether to stand in the elections with a new front regardless of the acronyms that today represent all leftist formations .

And she is "very clear" that to build that platform

.

"To build a country project as I would like to do, we cannot do it without a community as important as Andalusia".

But she has ruled out that among her objectives is to turn the regional elections into a flying goal of her electoral race.

Diaz's agenda in Seville today is institutional, with a morning visit to the

(the former

, but it was not ruled out that he would take the opportunity to hold some contact at an organic level.

In the afternoon he plans to participate with CCOO and UGT in a debate on labor reform.

Her presence in the Andalusian capital had aroused certain expectations, first of all, due to the anomaly that meant that the Minister of Labor had not yet visited

in Spain.

But also because of that unifying role that some claim from it in a context of strong political fragmentation.

Those who trusted, therefore, that the Minister of Employment would become the mediator or inspirer of that great agreement that the left would need to avoid the

in the next regional elections have found today an express refusal from the Vice President of the Government , who has come to respond to journalists who have insisted that she "is nobody" to tell the parties of the Andalusian left "what they should do."

Publicly at least, Díaz insists on rejecting that role that would put more pressure on her plans to articulate an electoral alternative.

To the left of the PSOE there are currently

main candidates that will compete separately: that of United We Can, which does not yet have a candidate;

that of Teresa Rodríguez, who will attend hand in hand with the

recovering the Adelante Andalucía brand, and that of Más País, which has formed a platform together with two Andalusian formations under the Andaluces Levantaos brand and headed by

, former senator of Podemos .
