The president of Vox, Santiago Abascal, has expressed his confidence in being able to "convince many more" socialists to support his party in the general elections on November 29.
"Surely there are people here who voted for them and now are going to vote for us. I have no reproach, I thank them and I hope to be able to convince many more. They were scammed because they were told that they would not negotiate with terrorists and separatists and they have done the opposite," he stated during a rally held this Saturday afternoon in Ibiza.
Abascal has opined that the president of the Government and PSOE candidate, Pedro Sánchez, is the leader who has "lied brutally and consistently to the people" and who is now trying to make them forget by resorting to "little shirts and little dances and the power of love."
"Every time I open social media I see him dancing and with a t-shirt. What does he say? I’m not clear on that. But I know what he has done in eight years: lie, betray, and allow his personal circle to steal with both hands," he asserted.
The leader and candidate of Vox has maintained that with this type of strategy on social media —"the little jokes and the dances," he reiterated— the PSOE is also trying to "cover up an attempt at fraud" through the 'grandchildren's law.'
In terms of foreign policy, Abascal has reproached the Government for having kept "its mouth shut" in the face of the "invasion" of Ceuta and for not having had "even a reproach" towards Morocco. "But yes to Milei for getting involved with his wife or to Meloni for wanting to protect herself from the invasion that is coming through Spain. Traitor, there is no more," he added.
Regarding immigration, he emphasized that for his party "the color of people's skin does not matter but what they have in their heads." "We do not want them to come to impose their fanaticism and without asking for permission," he pointed out.
The Vox leader has defended that "the message" cannot be sent to migrants that "whoever tries will eventually succeed, that if they come illegally they can regularize and naturalize." "Whoever commits crimes has to go to the prisons of their country, it cannot be that there are people who do not come to work," he concluded.
