  • Politics The PP now admits that it gave itself "24 hours to study the amnesty for Puigdemont" in its August negotiation with Junts but saw it as "unconstitutional"

The negotiations with the independence movement set the course in the final stretch of the Galician elections. The PSOE and Vox have launched this Sunday against the "mountain of lies" and the "insult" of

Alberto Núñez Feijóo

after the PP admitted that it "studied the amnesty" for

Carles Puigdemont

while he was speaking with Junts last August, within the process towards investiture.

Sources from Genoa have admitted that the PP "studied 24 hours" the possibility of "an amnesty" for the former

president

who fled from Justice during their August conversations with

Junts

, but finally ruled it out because they saw it as "unconstitutional." They also analyzed other requests from the independentists, such as the use of Catalan in

Congress

.

"With regard to the amnesty, we confirmed and argued solidly in legal terms our refusal to carry out this law because it was manifestly unconstitutional. In no case could we negotiate something that we consider violates the

Constitution

," PP sources have pointed out.

The PSOE has announced that it will be the former president of the Government

José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero

who will comment on these revelations during a party event in Ferrol that was initially scheduled for 12:00 p.m. but which will foreseeably be delayed.

José Ramón Gómez Besteiro

, the socialist candidate for the presidency of the Xunta,

also attends him .

This information, according to the PSOE, "uncovers the mountain of lies by Alberto Núñez Feijóo in relation to his contacts with the Catalan independence movement and his opinions regarding the current and future legal decisions that he would support."

For his part, the leader of Vox,

Santiago

Abascal

, has written on

the social network

"He remains in second position, but close to first place. It is a serious insult to the Spanish people," said Abascal.
