Castilla y León has taken the first step of the journey in the courts that it intends to follow regarding the controversial amnesty law that Pedro Sánchez is finalizing in order to govern.

Thus, the president of the Board, Alfonso Fernández Mañueco, has put the matter in the hands of the Constitutional Court. Fernández Mañueco warned that the region that he presides will be “firm and decisive” against the “abuse of power” of the acting president of the Government to “privilege his partners.”

Along these lines, he announced that the extraordinary Government Council meeting this Saturday agreed to begin the “immediate challenge” procedure before the High Court when the agreements between the PSOE and the Catalan independentists on the amnesty and forgiveness of the debt of Catalonia with the Autonomous Liquidity Fund (FLA).

In an appearance before the press after participating in this extraordinary Government Council, Mañueco insisted that the agreements being finalized “seriously violate Spain and Castilla y León” and against the “framework of coexistence.”

The autonomous Government Council, meeting in an extraordinary manner at the request of the vice president of the Board, Juan García-Gallardo (Vox), has adopted two measures. The first of them involves initiating the procedure to challenge through an appeal of unconstitutionality before the Constitutional Court when the agreements on the amnesty materialize.

And, secondly, the Board approved to initiate the same procedure against the formal materialization of the financial and economic measures included in the same political agreements before the Constitutional Court, the Supreme Court or the National Court, depending on the institution that adopts and materialize the agreement.

“We are going to go to court against Sánchez’s abuses of power and we will exercise the leadership that corresponds to us,” said Mañueco, who avoided commenting on whether he considers, as his Government partner, that the granting of amnesty to those convicted of the process is a coup d’état.

In this sense, the president of Castilla y León has referred to these negotiations as a “sale” or a “scam” of Pedro Sánchez for the votes of the investiture, only to “keep his seat” based on “inadmissible concessions.” and “submission” to the separatists while “trampling the efforts of thousands of families or businessmen.”

“We are convinced that democracy and the rule of law will triumph,” said Mañueco. Next, he highlighted the differences between this possible amnesty and the previous ones produced in Spain, such as that of 1977 or the fiscal one.

“The amnesty is an attack on the rule of law and a political aberration,” he continued, while criticizing that this circumstance represents “Sanchez’s submission to the separatists.”

“It is an attack on the dignity of people who comply with the rules that we have given ourselves,” he concluded. The president of Castilla y León has also warned that “what is a personal interest of Sánchez cannot be of general interest. “He goes against coexistence, the Constitution and confronts us all.”

Regarding the forgiveness of Catalonia’s debt, Fernández Mañueco has also criticized that “Sánchez pays 15,000 million of the taxes of all Spaniards to keep his chair.”

In this sense, the head of the regional Executive has turned to a comparative example of autonomy. “Sánchez does not have money for the farmers and ranchers of Castilla y León who see their cows die or who suffer from drought, but he does have money for his partners.”

Mañueco has once again demanded that the Government convene the Fiscal and Financial Policy Council, which for him is “an instrument that we have all given ourselves and that Sánchez tramples on.” “What she is doing is an affront, which is negotiating bilaterally what affects all the autonomous communities,” concluded the president of Castilla y León.
