The Basque PSOE has gathered its members in Bilbao with the presence of Pedro Sánchez to relaunch the pre-campaign for the 29N elections.
The Basque PSOE has gathered more than 2,000 socialist sympathizers to reinforce the restart of the electoral pre-campaign in which Pedro Sánchez appeals to "the strength of a country" scandalized by the tragic train accident in Urda in which 69 victims died. A "force" that Sánchez intends to put on his side with grandiose social commitments such as the reform of the Constitution to protect the revaluation of pensions and abortion. With the window of offers open, Sánchez has assured that he will raise the Minimum Interprofessional Wage (SMI) every year and that he will maintain a hypothetical socialist government as the "lighthouse among so much darkness" in the world.
Pedro Sánchez multiplied for 14 minutes to distribute hugs, kisses and selfies in the Euskalduna palace in Bilbao accompanied by the catchy song 'Xorieri' in Basque by Izaro before more than 2,000 dedicated militants. Socialist sympathizers who have applauded wildly when the socialist president has used pensions, abortion and the SMI to appeal to "mobilization against involution."
Covered with "solemn commitments", Sánchez's words have allowed him to claim a "broad and progressive majority" on 29N. The President of the Government has conveyed to his followers the "pride" of the alleged achievements of the last 8 years, which are what, in his opinion, fuel the rejection of the "international far-right." Sánchez has expressly mentioned Trump and, as he has repeated since last Friday, he has questioned the courage of Alberto Núñez Feijóo or Santiago Abascal to confront the North American president. "Let what happens in Spain be decided in Spain," said Sánchez.
Faced with President Trump and to boost participation at the polls, Sánchez has turned to Pope Leo XIV. "He is American and voted by mail," Sánchez said when some activists began chanting his name. The socialist candidate has used the pronouncements of Leo XIV on emigration, climate change and the business of Artificial Intelligence (AI) to link them with those defended by the PSOE. "The world is watching us," Sánchez stressed at the closing of the rally held in Bilbao.
The most vibrant reception for Sánchez has come from Patxi López, who was his internal rival in 2017. Almost a decade later and after a term as spokesperson in Congress, López has mixed absolute support for Sánchez for the "attacks suffered by his relatives", with exacerbated political victimhood and with a reference to the "victory of the terrorist group ETA." "We did not give up then and we do not give up now because we are going to win by a landslide in Euskadi," López stressed.
