“We want to know and want to reach the bottom of that strange and murky relationship between that corrupt mafia and the investiture of Pedro Sánchez in which the PNV has participated and Aitor Esteban has the obligation to give explanations.” With these words, the general secretary of the PP, Miguel Tellado, was asked on Wednesday, being asked about the relations between his party and the PNV. And almost at the same time, the popular leader has asked Basque nationalists to drop the progressive government withdrawing their support in the Congress of Deputies.
His reflection comes a day after Tellado himself starred in a tense rifirrafe in social networks with the leader of the Basque nationalists, Aitor Esteban, who accuses of “lying” about his relationship with Antxón Alonso, the businessman linked to the case of the former Secretary of Organization of the PSOE, Santos Cerdán, who investigates alleged bites in public awards. “The thief is believed that everyone is of his condition,” Esteban replied to Tellado in X, where he recalled that the ‘number two’ of the PP withdrew from his curriculum that he was a journalist.
Tellado has assured that Cerdán himself said Tuesday, in an interview at La Vanguardia, that Alonso “helped him in the negotiations between the PSOE and the PNV” for the investiture of Pedro Sánchez, in 2023. “Someone lies and Aitor Esteban has preferred to insult me directly,” said the leader of the PP, who has asked the nationalist leader if Alonso PNV ”.
For Tellado, “The problem” of Esteban is “that the person with whom he negotiated the investiture is in prison”, alluding to Cerdán. “Aitor Esteban is involved in a great mess and the sooner it gives the correct explanations, the better we will go to all,” he added.
However, Tellado has assured that those maintained by the PP with the PNV “are right relationships.” “They have decided to support the investiture and have to become co -responsible. It is a failed legislature and the PNV should rethink their relationship with the PSOE,” he added.
On a row, Tellado has criticized that the Nationalist Party maintains “his support closed to the continuity of Pedro Sánchez.” It makes them more than partners, complicit in everything he has done. Aitor Esteban assumes political responsibility by maintaining this government. He cannot avoid all this responsibility, ”he concluded.
