Nevertheless, Abengochea clarified that they had disagreed with this throughout the negotiations, but “in the end, it was signed.” She also urged Chunta to reconsider the decision so that there would be a candidacy to the left of the Socialist Party: “There is still time. The deadline is the 26th.”
The regional lawmaker said they would not ask voters in Teruel to support any other party “because we have a clear left-wing project called Frente Amplio.” She added that Spain needs “a strong left” because “the PSOE is cowardly when it comes to implementing what it writes in its election manifestos.”
Finally, she said the issue would not shape the campaign, in which they would “do everything possible to arrive in good shape” for November 29, since the shared goal is to “stop a hypothetical far-right government, protect rights and offer people all the rights that make dignified lives possible.” She considers these disagreements between coalition partners “legitimate and democratic.”
