Spain Yolanda Díaz, to Podemos: "If you ask for clean cake unity, you depress the electorate" and then it doesn't matter if you shake hands"

When Yolanda Díaz talks about Pablo Iglesias and the problems Podemos and Sumar have to understand each other, she changes her face, wipes her smile and declares herself "concerned". She as she says that "the people" are. "If you ask your electorate for unity, you are depressing your electorate. And then it doesn't matter if you shake hands," she warned last night in a clear message of censorship of the pressure strategy followed by the purple ones.

His interview on the program Lo de Évole, on LaSexta, generated between expectation and nerves in the direction of the purple party. They had reasons to be like this because the leader of Sumar was forcefully dispatched on occasions about the pulse that is being experienced and the tensions. She declared her "sadness" for the situation, but she reaffirmed her willingness to seek an agreement and talk. She also blamed Podemos for it. "Agreements are reached when they want to reach agreements. If one does not want to, two do not agree," she said.

Díaz dismantled the argument put forward by Podemos for not attending the presentation of his candidacy for the general elections in Magariños: the absence of a commitment to hold "open primaries". "It's not true. There will be primaries with citizen participation," he replied. "Do you think that if we sign a document that says open primaries they are inside Sumar? I said no."

She was willing to "negotiate everything", although she stressed that she knows "what the political parties want." She and she detailed it: "How much money, how many lists, how many released and little program." "It's sad," she lamented.

He stressed that he "does not want" the conflict to end with two separate lists in the generals - one from Sumar and another from Podemos - but he hinted that the problem is in the attitude of the purple ones. "If one puts the interests of the country above all else, he is (in the agreement). And there is no possible excuse." Thus, he revealed his discomfort with Podemos for not having gone to his event. "I am not able to understand it." In addition, he pointed out that he knows of people who wanted to go and could not because of Belarra's veto.

She claims not to have "any fight with anyone", although she showed that the relationship with Pablo Iglesias is very deteriorated. She had many errands for him. As she has not known how to get out of control of Podemos, something that she already suspected because she knows him "quite a lot". She affirmed in this regard that she maintains a "very sharp" leadership within the party. She "he is archpresent", although she "formally is not in the organs". "You have to let people fly. You should let everyone do more," she said. He also said that he "likes to think that he didn't" believe that he was going to "guardian" her.

Díaz feels alluded to by the "insults" that Iglesias has thrown at her. She even so she has passed it on to him. "I never insult anyone." The leader of Sumar described that the former general secretary of Podemos has become a "curmudgeon" and a person who "is quite grumpy" and "angry all the time." And that he told him so once they saw each other in Barcelona in an act. "I am a happy person," she said, "politics is not done negatively."

On the other hand, Díaz left it up to the air and the interpretation of the audience if he will vote for Más Madrid and not for Unidas Podemos in the regional and municipal elections in May. Despite the insistence on the questions about whether he would support Mónica García, he did not want to clarify it. "Today I represent Sumar".

Beyond all of the above, the interview left many headlines on various topics. He pointed out macho behavior by Iglesias and also by Pedro Sánchez. "Of course the president is sexist" just like almost everyone is.

The leader of Sumar recounted again how the "finger of Iglesias" fit in to name her his successor at the head of the second Vice Presidency and as a future candidate without her knowing. She found out, like all of Spain, through a video that she published on her own. "I got very angry," it was "disrespectful" to Unidas Podemos and her. This is how Díaz expressed it in person to Iglesias a few hours later, when he invited him to eat "a salad" and he acknowledged that he had "screwed up" life".

"He knew perfectly well that she was very angry and that what she did was not correct," he remarked. Díaz had many doubts about what to do. He described it as a "brutal dilemma" between accepting, as he did, or leaving the government at that time.

Regarding Alberto Núñez Feijóo, he pointed out that he was a "great adversary" and stated that if the right ends up governing it will be because the left has done "something wrong." "If we lose it is because we do it badly and the adversary better," he said, and it will not be the voters' fault. Of course, he stressed that a government of PP and Vox would be a "drama".

Díaz left Fernando Grande-Marlaska in the shooting when he showed that under his criteria he should have resigned due to the tragedy in Melilla in which many immigrants died. "In politics one has to assume responsibilities"; "You can't play with human rights."
