The movements of the last few hours in the Valencian PP suggest an imminent agreement with Vox to invest Juanfran Pérez Llorca as president of the Generalitat to replace Carlos Mazón. Deputies from the Valencian Cortes have been summoned to a meeting of the parliamentary group to be held on Wednesday with the aim of approving the new appointments, which presumably involve a change in the spokesperson and leadership of the group, according to sources close to the meeting. What is expected from the PP is that Pérez Llorca stops being the spokesperson of the group and becomes only the candidate for the presidency of the Generalitat. The replacement in the spokesperson’s office indicates that the PP believes that Pérez Llorca will be inaugurated, because it knows that the deal with Vox is already practically concluded.
The movement is aiming for an imminent agreement because Pérez Llorca could continue to act as spokesperson for the group even if he is the candidate for the investiture, to have a secure position in case the investiture does not go ahead. But the PP’s prediction is that this Wednesday he will be replaced by a new spokesperson, which means that the most popular take it for granted that Vox will transform its candidate into president. The announcement of the agreement with Santiago Abascal’s party is expected any moment now, given that there are no major obstacles that would make it difficult, and the prediction, if nothing goes wrong, is that Pérez Llorca’s investiture will take place next week.
After Wednesday’s parliamentary group meeting, it is expected that a Valencian PP board of directors will meet later this week to ratify these appointments. This internal meeting is also important because we are still waiting to resolve the organic direction of the PP of the Valencian Community, which Mazón continues to hold in all respects. Him president in office he resigned from his public responsibilities, but has not resigned for the moment as leader of the Valencian PP.
This Monday, Génova ruled out holding a congress of the Valencian PP in the short term to elect Mazón’s replacement. “The important thing now is to build a government whose sole objective is the reconstruction of Valencia,” said the deputy secretary of the Treasury, Juan Bravo, in the press conference after the steering committee.
The PP is optimistic about the possibilities of an agreement with Vox in the Valencian Community after having verified that Santiago Abascal’s requests are acceptable and fall within the concessions that Mazón’s PP has already made to Vox for the approval of the Budgets. Last week, Abascal asked the PP as a condition for a pact to build “dams” and “dams” in the Valencian Community. He also asked for an end to Brussels’ measures that cause “climate terrorism” in exchange for a favorable position for the investiture of his candidate as head of the Consell. These two issues were interpreted in the PP as non-problematic. Along with these acceptable demands, the organic movements of the popular Valencians underline that the agreement between PP and Vox to invest in a new president It can be seen very closely.
