The PP has announced that it is suspending talks with the Government on immigration and that the spokesperson for the Popular Parliamentary Group, Miguel Tellado, will not meet next Monday with the Minister of Territorial Policy, Ángel Víctor Torres.
According to the PP, the Government has renounced asking for help from the European Union, as requested by the formation led by Alberto Núñez Feijóo.
Tellado has informed Torres that the conversations are suspended "until the Government reconsiders and seeks community support for the resolution of a conflict that is not only from the Canary Islands and not only from Spain", the PP has reported, which has asked the Government to send the documentation and communications maintained between Spain and the Commission and assures that it has not obtained a response.
It has also considered that the Executive cannot reject the aid that is offered to it, nor delegate to the autonomous communities of the PP the response to the immigration problem.
The PP has also informed the President of the Canary Islands Executive, Fernando Clavijo, of its decision.
For its part, the Canarian PSOE has asked the PP "to stop muddying politics with hoaxes and possible agreements on immigration matters" and has denied that the Government of Spain rejects Europe's help to the islands to manage the humanitarian crisis that is being experienced there.
The Secretary of Organization of the PSOE in the Canary Islands, Nira Fierro, has flatly denied in a statement the accusations of the popular, in her opinion, "only justifiable by those who, in reality, intend to derail any possibility of agreement.”
