If King Felipe VI sees it, the PSOE will have no problem appointing Alberto Núñez Figo to try to form a government in Spain, as a result of his victory in the July 23 elections. Denying the pressure on the king to make Pedro Sánchez the candidate (“as the People’s Party does daily”), socialist sources, quoted by Europa Press, expressed sarcasm and spoke of what would be the “third stumbling block” for the inauguration “forged“.
On the first day of the round of hearings for the parties with seats in Congress (with the exception of the independence parties, which refused to participate in the consultations), the Spanish monarch learned from Yolanda Diaz, the leader of the left-wing Somar platform, that she wanted to preserve the government coalition with the Socialist Workers’ Party, but respected If that’s the decision, the leader of the Popular Party should be the first to try it. Even taking into account that it will be a “failure”, due to the lack of support.

And while they refuse to give their support to a coalition government with the Vox party (which he described on Radio Cadena Ser as “the proud heir of the Franco regime”), their five deputies do not tip bills to the right. Meanwhile, they cannot automatically be counted in Sanchez’s favor, because although the PNP helped form the absolute majority that elected the SWP’s nominee for congressional chairman, it was still too early to say which vote.
Ettore Esteban even recommended to the king not to choose between Figo and Sanchez, and to give the parties more time to negotiate, after he referred to the call for consultations with the parties as “rather hasty”, according to Agence France-Presse. Country. Especially since the Spanish constitution does not give the king any specific date to propose a candidate for prime minister.
On Tuesday, Felipe VI receives the delegations of the Fox Party, the Socialist Workers Party, and the Popular Party, and ends the tour of the parties, and from there he can inform Francina Armengol of who chooses to form the government. To show that he really wants to be the candidate, Feijóo signs a government agreement with the Canary Alliance on the same day.
