One of the reasons for the growing discredit of the Spanish political class is the low value that some politicians give to their word.<\/p>\n
What some media claim that Feij\u00f3o and the PP have said<\/big><\/p>\n Yesterday, several media outlets stated that the president of the Popular Party, Alberto N\u00fa\u00f1ez Feij\u00f3o, has declared himself open to granting a conditional pardon to the fugitive Puigdemont<\/strong>as part of a \"reconciliation\" plan for Catalonia. You can see here the corresponding news in different media: Efe<\/a>, El Pa\u00eds<\/a>, La Vanguardia<\/a>, Eldiario.es<\/a>, Cadena SER<\/a>, OK Diario<\/a> and COPE<\/a>.<\/p>\n The aforementioned media appeal to some words spoken by Feij\u00f3o<\/strong> at a PP event in Sarria (Lugo) and also to statements made by PP \"sources\"<\/strong> without identifying them. Contrary to what was stated by these media, last night Europa Press stated<\/a>: \u00abThe PP says that the conditions are not met to pardon Puigdemont<\/strong> and that he rejected the amnesty \"in less than 24 hours.\"\u00bb<\/em> This agency also does not indicate which people from the PP have made these statements, released in response to what was published by the aforementioned media and by some other media.<\/p>\n A video that clearly shows what Feij\u00f3o said<\/big><\/p>\n As my confidence in journalism is rather low, I have decided to see for myself what Feij\u00f3o said<\/strong>. Here you can see the video of the broadcast of that PP event in Sarria<\/a>. At point 1:03:08 of the video, Feij\u00f3o says the following:<\/p>\n \"Of course we are in favor of reconciliation, and we will do everything possible so that those who broke coexistence are reconciled with the rule of law<\/strong> and with the coexistence of the country. Reconciliation is necessary but never can go through impunity. There is no reconciliation if someone who has committed something says that he will commit it again<\/strong>, and much less if he says that he is going to reoffend and declare again the independence of a part of our country, to carry out an illegal referendum and to steal and hide from all the basic principles that govern the rule of law.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n You can see that part in this video player<\/strong> (I have inserted it so that it starts at the point indicated above):<\/p>\n
