The government fears Podemos more than together to negotiate the budgets of 2026 and finish the legislature | Spain

Now listening to any intervention by Ione Belarra, Irene Montero and Pablo Iglesias, the triumvirate that controls The dynamics of Podemosit would seem impossible that in a recent past they were part of the same government as Pedro Sánchez (PSOE) and Yolanda Díaz (Sumar). Montero, already nominated candidate for some generals without date on the horizon, recognized a few days ago that they are pronounced from the « pain and resent of the entrails. » Belarra only admits the positive aspects of that governmental past that the ministers can then sign up. Iglesias not only attacks Díaz and Mónica García – « the rich left of adding, » Ironiza -, but he has literally sent “the shit” to CC OO for advocating for some status pacts for the next 2026 budgets, already discarded those of this course, which will be extended. In the government’s dome, the PSOE and its parliamentary group confess that they fear more than we together for this incipient negotiation of the public accounts of the next year.

Before leaving a few days on Easter holidays, one of the ministers closest to Pedro Sánchez, and who acknowledged having contacts with together to see the possibilities of quadling some general state budgets by 2026, already ruined the reverie to agree on those of 2025, granted in the courtyard of Congress: “Right now we would have more problems to agree on those budgets with Podemos that with together, that is the truth. With together the relationship has improved, some pitfalls have been saved and we see some possibility, it is not impossible. A member of the Directorate of the Socialist Parliamentary Group, in charge of contacting the other groups of most investiture, third in the same line: « With Junts we see that there would be options, things could be spoken, but we can have been thrown into the mountain seems to definitely. »

Junnts points out that it is not part of any block, which needs to get something in each transaction and that the amnesty law must be able to apply in its entirety, especially for its leader, the escaped Carles Puigdemont. For Podemos, every speech in the Tribune of Congress, in a press conference, in an interview in any medium or in a rally, is a scolding against almost everything, but very particularly against the Government of Pedro Sánchez. The formation of Belarra, Montero and Iglesias sees Sánchez delivered to « open the door for the right » to reach the Moncloa, already Their former Diaz and Garcia place them place them in the outskirts of the next candidacies of the PSOE at the state level or in Madrid. Although they also arrive lately against the usual partners of the Executive, who were his own.

When Mónica García expressed her « tiredness » against the derogatory and recurring polish of churches to the calls to add to reconcile, he publicly revealed a very widespread discomfort in several leftist parties of that majority, which are in favor of maintaining this government in front of the right -wing alternative, although they are critical of many decisions and performances that see too much peaceful.

The Differences between the government, its allies and Podemos are not only of economic model for the budgets, that too. The panorama has been even more complicated by mixing those divergences of budgetary objectives with the response that Donald Trump’s tariff offensive must be given to Russia’s invasion in Ukraine and Israel’s military intervention in Gaza. We can refuse to be pragmatic or possible; And it demands to sit some total shock policies, both in housing and in front of the US and in the pacifist response to the requirements to increase defense games. And also demands the departure of NATO or judicial persecution without contemplation against Israeli leader Benjamin Netanyahu.

In the recent debate in Congress on the complex international context, where Sanchez presented the position of Spain, ERC spokesman Gabriel Rufián, who has always reserved expressions of support to Montero and Iglesias in his worst moments and criticisms nothing veiled by Díaz, questioned the leftist formations to assume that not always the only response to this type of conflict should be that of “the banners”. Iglesias did not like anything and took note.

Irene Montero, before Easter and the V Assembly of Podemos in the Casa de Campowhere ratified the leadership of Belarra and the candidacy of the former ministrate of equality to the next generals without any internal debate, clearly warned in an interview in RNE that the government should not count on the four votes of its deputies to speak before July of the expense ceiling prior to the budgets. He also advanced that they will not support them if they are designed « for war. »

Montero even pointed out that Sánchez’s executive « is not interested » to take that negotiation to Congress because, in that case, he would have to grant some aspects in the face of what they understand what they do now, moving games as they want and without any control. The motto song of that V Assembly was « to return », but in we can interpret that this return is not to the previous stage, in which they were already within the Executive. It is « to return » to occupy power from the communist left and without complexes. It is to reject any collusion that comes from the hand of Junts and Carles Puigdemont, a party to which they place at the ultra level of Catalan alliance.

The already candidate of Podemos came to denounce that the current government of Sánchez « has not achieved any social progress throughout the legislature. » Such maximalist slogans, typical of the PP and Voxthey displease the PSOE, but also to other parties of the majority. Ministers, socialist representatives and other groups of the investiture block confirm that, on many occasions, « it gives the feeling that we can work with the objective that the left loses, there is a right -wing government and they can present themselves as the only representatives of the true left, even in the opposition. »
