The first visit of Alberto Nunez Feijoo to the Catalan parliament is no coincidence. It comes at a key moment in the negotiations between Salvador Illa and the separatists for his possible investiture, whose talks fully influence the PP, the fourth political force in the region, which PSC, Junts and ERC They want to impose a cordon sanitaire. Something that Feijóo has denounced after a meeting with the Popular Group in Parliament, from where he has also had time to soften the threats of Santiago Abascal regarding the break-up of the autonomous coalition governments with the PP if the popular governments agree on the distribution of minor immigrants with the PP. the PSOE.
Asked about this last question, the PP President preferred not to refer directly to the question Vox leaderalthough it has reiterated the willingness of the communities governed by the PP to show solidarity with the Canary Islands, where migratory pressure has already exceeded all established limits. “The autonomous communities will make available to the central government – which does not have a migration policy – and especially to the government of the Canary Islands, their ability to care for minors. The practice we have had is to support the reception of minors, as long as we have the capacity in the autonomous communities to receive, treat and care for them. “No one can give what they do not have,” said Feijóo, before referring directly to the government of Pedro Sánchez, which he accused of inaction.
“The government of Spain has no migration policy and is not solving these problems. It is creating them. It has abandoned the autonomous communities. He doesn't talk to them, he doesn't meet them. and after having done so and having been asked for a meeting for a long time, it seems that on Wednesday they will see first how the problem is being addressed,” said the popular man, without elaborating on the ordeal of Abascal.
The same speech as a week ago, when the barons gathered in Salamanca on the occasion of the presentation of the common EBAU of the PP acknowledged their willingness to accept minor immigrants into their communities, but at the same time spoke of the difficulties many of them face in welcoming them due to the overcrowding of their centers.
The issue of financing was also raised, an issue that the government refuses to address in the detail demanded by the communities. Circumstances that make a total agreement difficult next Wednesdaywhen Pedro Sánchez's executive must roll up its sleeves and get everyone to agree if it wants to start solving a migration problem that threatens to become entrenched.
During the meeting he held with his parliamentary group, led by Alejandro Fernández, Feijóo was able to see first-hand the marginalization to which he is subjected by the PSC and the separatists, who, despite their efforts, have already left them out of the table, the fourth force in Parliament and that they are now maneuvering to leave them without the senator through an autonomous appointment that they won in the elections.
“It doesn't seem reasonable that they want the Catalans who voted for the PP to have fewer rights and representation than what they get in the Senate. I expect a minimum of historical coherence from the PSC and PSOE in relation to the Senate and the right that the PP has to have a new senator,” said Feijóo, who announced that the first initiative of the people in Parliament will have to do with security, a problem directly related to the issue of immigration, as the same PP has pointed out during the campaign.
“The first initiative that will be presented in this Chamber It will be to improve the safety of citizens in the cities and towns of Catalonia, which is what a large part of Catalans desire and want. The security of citizens is a problem, and it is becoming more and more so, because crime rates are increasing in Spain and because in Catalonia and Spain some problems of coexistence are already being noticed,” announced the Galician.
