With this uncertainty the meeting began, in which Pedro Sánchez took the floor to outline his proposals, unknown until then, and which sources close to the popular barons described as “generalities” and “empty of content.” On the issue that most concerned the territories, that of regional financing, Sánchez proposed “agreeing among all on a new model of regional financing that reconciles multilateralism and bilaterality, protects solidarity between territories, and guarantees that all the Autonomous Communities receive more resources than they receive today. That is, support for the bilateral negotiation already underway with Catalonia and another parallel one with the rest of the autonomies that would be addressed in a Fiscal and Financial Policy Council that the Government will convene for January. In it, Sánchez announced that there will be an “assumption by the State of part of the debt of the Autonomous Communities of the common regime”, an issue that will have to be seen how it is addressed due to the different particularities and because some of the autonomous communities are not willing to receive that “forgiveness” and prefer to talk about a general economic injection. Another of Sánchez’s proposals, in this case to help the territories affected by DANA, is to reprogram “a part of the European cohesion funds FEDER and ESF+ to create an additional line of help.” Related News vertical No The XXVII Conference of Presidents in Santander, in images EFE The President of the Government, Pedro Sánchez, brings together the regional leaders this Friday in a Conference of Presidents in which they will discuss issues such as housing, regional financing, immigration and the lack of health professionals«It is incredible that all of this has not been documented before.
