Half of Europe looks askance at it Amnesty law approved by the Spanish government to count on the party’s seven votes Carles Puigdemont. The European Parliament debated the law in a plenary session last week, and several municipal leaders expressed doubts about the measure passed by Pedro Sánchez. The last person to do so was the Italian Foreign Minister, Antonio Tajani. Tajani responded to some of Sánchez’s statements, incorporating them Italy placed in the category of “ultra-right” and “reactionary” governments. The head of Italian diplomacy responded “The secessionists” rule in Spain and he questioned whether the rule of law was really respected.
Sánchez explained this Thursday on TVE that in the last elections “a party ball was saved”, in reference to a possible coalition government between PP and Vox, pointing out that “in Italy the extreme right rules”, in reference to the Tri-party coalition led by Giorgia Meloni and which also includes Tajani.
“The extreme left rules in Spain. We defeated them in Italy. We respect the rule of law.” Does the same thing happen in Madrid? The EPP rules in Italy, in Spain the secessionists”, This was stated by Tajani, leader of Forza Italia, in a message published on the social network X, the old Twitter.
The head of Italian diplomacy was in Barcelona this week for a meeting of the European People’s Party (EPP) and, among other things, defended Europe as a common homeland where “we must always respect the rule of law”, which is why he said that the Spanish government of European Commission must “answer” if it is interested in the amnesty law.
“For Italians, national unity is very important. Defending autonomy is super important. In Italy we are carrying out a reform to give the regions more autonomy. But Autonomy is not independence. “We cannot destroy Europe” he declared with a warning about “small homelands.”
This was emphasized this Monday by the chairman of the European People’s Party (EPP) group, Manfred Weber They will not allow “Spain to follow the same path as Hungary and Poland”, In addition, it was denounced that the government of Pedro Sánchez “is based on the principle of lying to Spanish society” because of its performance in the parliamentary elections and its refusal to grant amnesty.
Weber criticized the PSOE’s agreements with Junts and ERC to install Sánchez as president: “But what madness is this! That the new Spanish government is in the hands of a political body that meets monthly in Geneva!” “I don’t think that’s normal. This leads us to suspect that something is wrong in Spain.“, he emphasized in an interview with “La Vanguardia”.
