Abascal reproaches Feijóo for his ambiguity in the pacts: "For there to be a sum, Vox must vote"

The leader of Vox, Santiago Abascal, attacked this Friday against the calculated lack of definition that Alberto Núñez Feijóo is showing during the electoral campaign on possible government pacts after the appointment with the polls on May 28. At the rally to kick off the campaign in the Plaza del Ayuntamiento de Valencia, before some 4,000 people, the right-wing politician accused the conservative leader of giving up “throwing the left” after Thursday, in the same city, Feijóo said that His intention is that the PP only govern in those territories in which it wins the elections, implying that it would not accept access to the executive power in autonomies and municipalities in which the PSOE is the first force but there are alternative majorities with Vox.

“Do not vote for Feijóo, who has abandoned half of Spain. If you want there to be a sum, you have to vote for Vox, a force to condition governments. It is throwing in the towel and abandoning millions of Spaniards who are waiting for an alternative majority to expel the left,” he insisted..

Abascal described the calls for the concentration of the right-wing vote in the initials of the PP as “cantinela”, with special allusion to the popular candidate in the Valencian Community, Carlos Mazón. In this case, the polls place the popular formation above the socialists, but without options to form a majority without having to agree with Vox. This is not the case in other territories, such as Extremadura or Castilla-La Mancha, where the PSOE clearly appears as the first option for voters, something that could also happen in Aragon..

The barons of the PP take it for granted that Feijóo's words are a strategy to mark distances with Vox and that it will be difficult for him to veto investiture agreements such as that of the Community of Madrid, or with shared governments such as in Castilla y León. But the mere debate opened by the head of the PP, served Abascal this Friday to attack him and appeal to the vote for Vox as the only guarantee of change in the places where the rights have joined.. “The PP does not know what it will do with its vote. The only safe vote is Vox,” he insisted..

The populist right-wing formation has expectations of continuing to occupy spaces of power. The Generalitat Valenciana, and also the Valencia City Council, are institutions in which it aspires to gain power. Before a devoted audience, armed with Spanish flags and the green and white Vox pennant, Abascal launched a speech that revives many of the slogans of the regionalist right of the eighties and nineties in the territory, which stirred up the specter of a supposed Catalanist invasion.

“With Vox, Valencia will always be a province proud of its belonging to Spain. Never a colony of Catalan separatism. We distinguish between loyalists and traitors,” he said in the closing speech of an act in which the local candidates Carlos Flores, Juan Manuel Badenas and the provincial president Ignacio Gil Lázaro participated..

in a national key. Abascal painted a Spain in which terrorists are “released” or in which “psychopathic ministers” release rapists, referring to the effects of the law of only yes is yes on sentences. He also said there are “depraved politicians” who steal from those who have the least or who have turned “corruption of minors into a subject in school.”

A Spain, he added, in which “the government’s partners have 44 terrorists on their lists,” in reference to Bildu’s local candidacies. According to, he said, Vox has presented a proposition in Congress to “outlaw Bildu,” and criticized the PSOE and PP for having rejected other similar initiatives on other occasions.
