After having criticized the left during the two Botànic legislatures for the last minute agreements to close the regional budgets, it is now the PP Government of Carlos Mazón is the one that faces a negotiation where your chances of success depend on his former Vox partnerswhich just a few months ago broke the agreement by direct order of Santiago Abascal from Madrid.
It has been the president of the Generalitat Valenciana, Carlos Mazón, who has recognized that there is already “previous meetings with Vox” in relation to the 2025 Budget of the Generalitat, as his former partner had requested. “The Vox group has asked to have meetings and they are taking place”said Mazón, according to Europa Pressafter making an institutional visit to the Meliana City Council.
The president insists that They are willing to talk “with whoever is necessary” because “it is a government that engages in dialogue and talks to everyone,” he stressed. “I am surprised that some are not so interested because, when we are talking about the Budgets of the Generalitat, we have taken the trouble to finalize them and, above all, to prioritize what we know is the most important, which are the health policies and dependency policies,” he added.
Along these lines, he has stressed that in the Budget project that his Consell must present this month in Les Corts and whose processing will be a true litmus test, “advances” are being made in reduce tax pressure “because there is no right for Valencians to suffer more fiscal pressure than the rest of Spaniards,” he stated, while adding that they also want to advance “in the policy of freedom, coexistence, incentives for the economy, for wealth, attracting investment and administrative simplification”.
Presidents’ Conference
On the other hand, the vice president and counselor of Social Services, Equality and Housing, Susana Camarero, has labeled “disappointing” the preparatory meeting of the Conference of Presidents and has stated that it is “a joke that the date of the Conference has not been announced, when we are ending the year and the presidents’ agendas are closed”: “It is a lack of respect for all the citizens we represent the autonomous leaders”.
This was stated in statements to the media after the Minister of Territorial Policy, Ángel Víctor Torres, announced that the agenda of the Conference of Presidents will also include regional financing, immigration and health, as demanded by the communities. governed by the PP, in addition to the housing problem at the request of the Government.
“The fact of not informing the date two months before the end of the year can only be for two reasons: that they do not want to inform the autonomies or that they are not going to hold the Conference directly,” he launched.
Furthermore, he has maintained that “the Government is repeating the maneuver of calling meetings without foresight” and has wondered if “they seek to adapt it to the personal agenda of Pedro Sánchez, in their strategy of distraction from the problems that the president is taking on.”
That said, the vice president has appreciated that the Government includes on the agenda “issues that ‘president’ Carlos Mazón has been demanding for a long time and that must mark the agenda of all leaders because they are matters of State, as he has put manifested the majority of the autonomies”.
Among these issues, he has referred to housing due to the situation of social drama and social crisis that is causing the rise in prices, “as a consequence of the inaction and lack of policies of the Botànic government for eight years, as well as the impediments generated by the Government’s Housing Law, which has caused a decrease in housing on the rental market.
Waiter has defended the need to talk about regional financing to address “this new and necessary reform within the Fiscal and Financial Policy Council (CPFF), as well as the equalization fund that is also one of the demands of the Valencian Community.”
In his opinion, it is also essential to talk about immigration, “an issue over which four ministries have powers that do not coordinate among themselves and that must be addressed to avoid the crisis that we are seeing every week, with people who risk their lives. life at sea.”
