Hours after Ursula Von Der Leyen had sent a letter to Pedro Sánchez in which he highlighted the "transparency and responsibility" of the plan designed by the executive for the distribution of European funds, the European Commission itself has clarified that the Misiva is part of the usual formal procedure.
In the same way, this communication from the controversy has been disconnected around the "inequality" that denounces the popular party on the distribution of aid from the Next Generation funds and has been specified that the Charter is a response from the President of The European Commission to another sent by Sánchez on its own initiative to accompany the delivery of the first report on the execution of the recovery plan sent to Brussels.
"There is no link between this letter and the current debate in Spain on the distribution of recovery funds between the Autonomous Communities and the Central Government," explained an agency spokesman for Europe Press.
Thus, since Brussels is considered this letter a gesture of courtesy by Von der Limen, which is part of the formal procedure, and that will also be referred similarly to other European leaders as the first phase of the disbursement of the European Funds.
Since the Popular Party has been harshly criticized the "dispensing" in which the execution of the funds is becoming and the executive has been accused of "taking chest" by a letter that has finally turned out to be part of the usual formality of the Commission European
"Then they are surprised that we encourage what they do," the Sectoral Vice-secretary and Deputy Popular Elvira Rodríguez said. Hours earlier, the leader of the opposition, Pablo Married, has vaticinate that in 2023 Brussels will discover the "deception" of the government and its "counterforms".
From the executive, previously, the sending of this missive had been held since Brussels. The First Vice President and Minister of Economic Affairs, Nadia Calviño, has explained that she did not "surprise" the news given that communication between the Government and the European Commission has been fluent and characterized by the maximum "transparency" in recent months.
Other ministers, such as Felix Bolaños, holder of presidency, relations with the courts and democratic memory, have taken advantage of Von der Limen's words to disabate the criticism of the PP. In the eyes of Bolaños, he explained this Monday, the "obstructionism" of the opposition is evidenced with congratulations from Brussels.
However, the PP insists that their work is to "supervise" the government and fulfill its duty as opposition. "We do not get your finger on the Government's sore. The government puts your finger and hand in the pocket of the Spaniards," said Pablo Married Monday, which has reiterated in the need for an independent institution to evaluate the distribution of Funds to avoid irregularities.
