An agreement in danger: Sánchez’s hopes
After the results of the July 23 election, Pedro Sánchez felt relieved, but he quickly realized that his political stability would depend on the support of Junts. His immediate strategy focused on convincing Carles Puigdemont, aware that every decision he made could have irreversible consequences.
The cost of the pact: concessions and promises
Sánchez devised a plan that included attractive concessions for Junts, hoping that reality would put things in their place. The PSOE was forced to make promises that, in the long run, could prove difficult to keep. This led to a pact that, while ambitious, was fraught with uncertainties.
The power dynamic between Sanchez and Puigdemont
Puigdemont, with a clearer vision of his political influence, signed the agreement with the intention of buying time and stabilizing his position. For him, the pact meant more than a commitment to the PSOE; it was an opportunity to reinforce his role as the new protagonist of Spanish politics.
The rift between partners: unfulfilled promises
Unfulfilled expectations have begun to create cracks in the relationship between Junts and the PSOE. While Sánchez believed that the need for Junts would guarantee his loyalty, reality has shown that promises without a solid foundation can lead to distrust. Now, Junts finds itself in a position that allows it to consider a break.
Puigdemont’s threat: a serious warning
In a recent interview, Puigdemont issued an alarming warning to the socialist government, indicating that early elections are an increasingly likely scenario. This statement has left Sánchez in a precarious situation, with the weight of polls pointing to a victory for right-wing forces.
The uncertain future of the PSOE
With the PSOE struggling to stay in power, the possibility of new elections becomes an imminent threat. If they are called, the party could be relegated to the opposition, jeopardizing its continuity and the model of government it has defended until now.
A crucial moment for the Government
Sánchez is facing one of the most complicated moments of his political career. His ability to navigate this crisis will determine not only his stay in office, but also the future of the PSOE. The coming weeks are expected to be decisive for the evolution of this tense relationship with Junts and for the future of the Government in general.
