The general coordinator of Podemos in Euskadi, Pilar Garrido, will not run for re-election as head of the party in the next process to renew the leadership, as stated on Radio Euskadi. In the last regional elections, Podemos was left without a seat in the Basque Parliament after the division with Sumar. She herself was not elected as a deputy in the 2023 general elections. Before Garrido, in ten years of life, Podemos has been led by Roberto Uriarte, Lander Martínez and Nagua Alba and she took office in 2020, just before the Basque elections of that year. anus.
Garrido has indicated that his intention is to continue “pushing the project” from “second, third or fourth row.” After emphasizing that “there is a bench” to replace her, he considered that, although “his thing” is for different candidates to be presented in the primaries, it would not be “strange” for there to be “only one.” Podemos in Euskadi will open the primary process in November to elect its new leadership, who “will energetically take the reins again and push” the formation, Europa Press reports.
Garrido believes that she has “already completed” her work as general coordinator and will not run for office again, a decision that she has already conveyed to her party. “I will be with one foot on the street accompanying civil society in some demands and then from reflection pushing the project,” he assured. The leader has said she has “no doubts” that there will be a “We can Euskadi as strong or stronger than the one that existed four years ago.” Podemos continues to have a presence at the provincial and municipal level in the Elkarrekin coalition shared with parties now included in Sumar such as IU and Equo.
