The Government has “tended the hand” on Tuesday to the President of Generalitat Catalan, Pere Aragonés, and has asked him to come to the conference of presidents called for this Friday in Salamanca, which he announced that he would not attend.

“I think it would be important for Catalonia and who would applaud Catalan citizenship,” the executive spokesman, Isabel Rodríguez, has expressed, during the press conference after the Council of Ministers.

Rodríguez has considered “very desirable” the presence of Aragonese in the meeting between autonomic leaders in which “fundamental issues for the future of Catalonia and Spain” will be addressed.

“If you want to rethink it will be very well received,” the spokeswoman has insisted, in those expressed by the leader of the Catalan Socialists, Salvador Illa, who asked Aragonés on Monday that “who claims dialogue, has that
Practice it ”

Through dialogue, Montero has said, the Government expects to design some accounts that are “revitalizing” for Catalonia, which is why I believe that Republicans will show their approval again to the budget project.

Likewise, the new position that JXCAT occupies at the internal level in the Catalan Executive – the controls of the finance portfolio in this new configuration – can approach postures, according to Montero, who hopes to also have this vote.

The truth is that in the government they intend to “tend the hand” initially to all the parties that make up the parliamentary arc.
In the last days there was talk of a possible approach to citizens, but in the Executive, as Tuesday emphasized, Montero, “priority” will be established with the groups that “throughout this legislature have shown their commitment to the promotion of progressive policies
