Seville, Spain. – The third attempt of socialist Susana Diaz to form government in the Spanish region of Andalusia failed again today after winning an absolute majority without elections marked by the entry of two emerging forces and another ten days of appointment the polls in the country.
The Andalusian elections, held on March 22 in advance, were the first of an intense election year in Spain which is expected to culminate in general elections and in which the emergence and the rise in polls matches we can and Citizens points at the end of bipartisanship in the country, DPA reported.
These two political forces opposed today’s inauguration Diaz as president of the government of Andalusia, after failing to reach an agreement around the political program that it presented. We can party led by Pablo Iglesias, she was born just over a year to heat the Occupy movement, while the centrist Citizens emerged in 2006 in the region of Catalonia, headed by Albert Rivera.
Also the Popular Party (PP), the President of the Spanish government, Mariano Rajoy, in the Andalusian Parliament voted against the investiture of Diaz, who needs at least some of these political forces refrain to govern alone. For now, no date was announced for an upcoming vote.
As part of a turbulent political landscape in Spain, none of the opposition parties seems willing to reach agreements with the socialists that could influence in municipal and regional elections of May 24 or in the general elections scheduled later this year. If within two months of the first vote, on June 5, Diaz is not selected, you must call elections again.
Today’s vote was marked also by the controversy this week around the alleged irregular award from the Andalusian government to reopen a mine in 1998 caused one of the greatest environmental disasters in the region, affecting the Doñana National Park.
Diaz announced yesterday the suspension of the concession after a judge observed evidence of an offense when considering that it was made “without observing the slightest rigor”. The decision did not satisfy the parliamentary opposition groups, who claimed that the scandal affects the process to form the new regional government.
Andalusia is the main stronghold of the Socialist (PSOE) party in Spain. Diaz took over the regional government in 2013 without going to the polls following the resignation of his predecessor, Juan Antonio Grin, punctuated by a corruption case.
