The socialist candidate for the presidency of the Generalitat, Salvador Illa, has discarded a pact with Junts per Catalunya after 12-M.
Incompatible logics
Salvador Illa, leader of the PSC, has stated that they have incompatible logics with Junts per Catalunya, thereby ruling out the possibility of an agreement between the two parties after the 12-M elections.
Bet on progress
Illa emphasized that Junts per Catalunya is betting on the blockade and considers that Carles Puigdemont represents a lost decade. On the other hand, he is to advance and promote the progress of Catalonia.
Together s’autoexclou
The leader of the PSC has stated that Junts per Catalunya has excluded itself from a possible agreement due to its demands on independence. The statements of Carles Puigdemont, in which he described Illa as ‘civil governor of the Catalan province’, have affected the socialist candidate.
Popular support
Illa has also ruled out the possibility of the popular people supporting an investiture of the PSC, as he considers that his attitude is obvious.
Illa rules out making a pro-independence president
Decision in Catalonia
Salvador Illa has made it clear that he does not see an independence candidate becoming president and that the decision will fall to Catalonia. He has stated that it is important that the decision on the future president of the Generalitat is taken in Catalonia and not in Madrid.
Little Catalanist
The leader of the PSC has expressed his surprise at the fact that those who defend independence consider governing Catalonia from Madrid. In addition, he has stated that he considers this option not very Catalanist.
