Víctor Egío stated that on Thursday he had offered Izquierda Unida to lead the candidacy for the Region of Murcia and that, the next day, they were even negotiating the name of a joint candidacy of IU, Podemos, and Sumar: Left Front of the Region of Murcia. According to what he wrote, the agreement followed models agreed upon in the Canary Islands and Valencia and negotiated at that time in Extremadura, until the federal leadership of IU ordered it to be halted. Egío argued that the tenth seat in the region could have been for Penélope Luna and that, after the blockage, it would probably end up in the hands of Vox. He added that it would be difficult to explain the breakup after years of joint work in the Regional Assembly, the municipalities, and the social movements. #Unidad #Izquierda #Murcia (translated)
