The leader of Vox, Santiago Abascal, has conveyed in his meeting with King Felipe VI, that his formation is willing to give its support to the leader of the Popular Party, Alberto Núñez Feijóo, before a possible investiture of the winner of the general elections of the past July 23th. Abascal has demanded, however, that the PP take steps to prevent the existence of a “sanitary cordon” for a party that is supported by “more than three million Spaniards.”
After the meeting with the head of state, which began after 10:30 a.m. at the Palacio de la Zarzuela, Abascal has confirmed his party’s position in the Congress of Deputies, in an appearance before the media without questions, but ” conditioned”. Feijóo thus guarantees a total of 172 supports -after the ‘yes’ of the deputies of UPN and the Canary Islands Coalition- this Monday, which means that he remains four short of the absolute majority necessary for the candidate proposed by the King, according to the Constitution, he is elected in the first round by the Lower House, according to Efe.
