The president of Castilla-La Mancha, Emiliano García-Page, considered Monday night that the” Koldo affair, Ábalos and derivatives, looks like a cluster bomb and of course has many ramifications”. This is what he said in the program‘La Brújula‘ of Onda Cero, in which asked if the person who gave confidence to the former minister and former number two of the PSOE, José Luis Ábalos, who“was – recalled Page – at the origin of the resurgence of Sánchez“, has any responsibility, he said that “at least people will derive it”. “Society is not stupid, it has perfectly defined responsibility”.“People are going to establish a cause-effect relationship no matter how much distance we want to put“, although he added that “people who are not in politics for the common good but for their own personal good can slip in”. Asked if he considers that in the PSOE Congress of Seville there has been an excessive worship of the leader, García-Page replied that in his acts he does not like that kind of “worship”.“I am not given to the cult of personality, but this is in tastes.” However, he added that the PSOE “feels attacked and that the political situation is of enormous stress and in response to that the militancy reacts in a way generating collective self-esteem and defending and reaffirming itself”. Regarding the singular financing of Catalonia, he said that it was made clear in the PSOE Congress that “it has nothing to do with the agreement with ERC” of a few months ago. He added that the regional presidents“raised their voices” and the PSOE Executive went to Congress with papers more in line with our classic doctrine. “If the agreement with ERC had been taken to Congress, it would not have come out at all,” he emphasized. In relation to the management of the DANAHe considered that the level 3 alarm “can be declared by the Government ex officio not only because there are four communities affected but also because there were strategic infrastructures of the State”. “I do not agree with the thesis that the State has a subsidiary role…. In reality, the State could almost always intervene and I would even say that for the army to mobilize, level 3 would not be necessary“. During the interview he also valued the figure of the former secretary general of the Madrid socialists Juan Lobato, who, he considered, will not run in the primaries of the party in Madrid.
