  • Politics Feijóo blames the PSOE for the pact between PP and Vox in Castilla y León: "He left no other option"

The president of

the European People's Party

(PPE),

Donald Tusk

, has received the news of the agreement between the PP and Vox to form a Government in Castilla y León as a "sad surprise" and hopes that it will be "an incident" and not a trend in

Spain

.

"For me it has been a sad surprise. Pablo Casado was a personal guarantee of keeping the Popular Party in the center right avoiding this type of flirtation with radicals, with extreme right movements like Vox," Tusk said Thursday in

Paris

, during a meeting of EPP leaders prior to the informal summit of European heads of state in

Versailles

.

At the meeting of European conservatives, dedicated to the Ukrainian conflict and to evaluating the party's position in the face of this crisis and the response of European institutions, Tusk criticized leaders of the European extreme right, such as Marine Le Pen,

Éric Zemmour

, Matteo Salvini or Viktor Orban, for his traditional support for Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Asked about the pact through which Vox will enter into an autonomous government thanks to a legislature agreement with the PP of Castilla y León, opening the way for new pacts in the future, Tusk said that he hopes it will be "an incident and not a trend in Spanish politics.

"It is a very strong signal for us that we have to fight against these desires to build apparently strong political forces but that in the long term suppose a capitulation", warned Tusk, former prime minister of

Poland

and former president of

the European Council

, at the end of the meeting in which Casado also participated as leader of the Spanish PP, a position that he will leave shortly.
