The President of the Government and Secretary General of the PSOE, Pedro Sánchez, affirmed this Tuesday that his Executive is “stable”, that “it will last the end of the legislature” and denied any “crisis” in it to make changes of ministers. “It is not in my plans to make any government crisis,” he clarified.
This was stated by Sánchez in statements to the media after making his tenth visit to the island of La Palma in September of last year.
Asked if he plans to make changes in his government after the holidays or in the coming weeks, as several media outlets have pointed out in recent days, Sánchez was surprised by the information published and was blunt when it came to denying that possibility.
The head of the Executive made it ugly that sometimes news is found in the media that he “has not even” “thought” in his head, for which he called for the media to “inform” instead of entering into speculation. “I understand that the information that is published is for me to respond later and say that there is no government crisis and an image is transferred that this is not a stable government,” he stressed about an alleged intention of the media to the time to publish news about possible changes of ministers.
“Intoxicate”
“I am extraordinarily proud of the work that the ministers do and, please, one thing is to inform and another thing is to intoxicate and the intoxications, of course, have nothing to do with what I think and how we are going to act in this semester, which is important for strengthen the economic recovery”, concluded the president.
Speculation about possible changes in the Sánchez Executive has increased in recent weeks, especially since last July he undertook a profound change in the leadership of the PSOE, where Minister María Jesús Montero replaced Adriana Lastra as deputy secretary general, Minister Pilar Alegría replaced Felipe Sicilia as spokesperson for the Federal Executive and former Lehendakari Patxi López took over from Héctor Gómez as spokesperson in the Congress of Deputies.
The President of the Government himself argued then that the purpose was to better coordinate political action between La Moncloa and the PSOE, as well as to give impetus to the activity of the party before the municipal and regional elections of 2023.
