It is worth noting that <a href=\"https:\/\/es.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Elecciones_al_Parlamento_de_Galicia_de_2024\" target=\"_blank\">Vox received over 34,000 votes in the 2024 Galician elections<\/a>, <strong>becoming the fourth most-voted party in that region<\/strong>. Any legal political party has the right to express itself in a democracy, provided it does not resort to violence. <strong>Vox is a democratic party that advocates for its ideas through peaceful means<\/strong>\u2014something that cannot be said of those who, today, attempted to prevent Abascal from expressing himself freely in that Spanish city.<\/p>\n<p>Abascal\u2019s visit to La Coru\u00f1a was announced days in advance, and <strong>the far left began organizing another act of harassment against Vox<\/strong>, <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/RB1987Oficial\/status\/2112505334128411087\" target=\"_blank\">even recruiting ultra groups like the Riazor Blues<\/a>\u2014a group founded in 1987 with a long history of violence. They are a faction of the fan base of Real Club Deportivo de La Coru\u00f1a. It is worth recalling that <a href=\"https:\/\/elpais.com\/deportes\/2003\/10\/08\/actualidad\/1065597713_850215.html\" target=\"_blank\">this ultra group was implicated in the October 2003 killing of Manuel R\u00edos Su\u00e1rez, a supporter of the same football club<\/a>. Following the public outcry over that crime, the Riazor Blues announced their dissolution, only to resurface later.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-media-max-width=\"665\">\n<p lang=\"es\" dir=\"ltr\">Entre aplausos y gritos de \u201c\u00a1PRESIDENTE, PRESIDENTE!\u201d, <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/Santi_ABASCAL?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@Santi_ABASCAL<\/a> ha sido recibido con cari\u00f1o en La Coru\u00f1a.<\/p>\n<p>Todo ello pese a quienes han intentado impedir el acto. <\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\udcaa\ud83c\uddea\ud83c\uddf8 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/QCWWrx2g4v\">pic.twitter.com\/QCWWrx2g4v<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; VOX \ud83c\uddea\ud83c\uddf8 (@vox_es) <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/vox_es\/status\/2112855275921391851?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">October 21, 2026<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p> <script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.x.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Despite those threats, <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/vox_es\/status\/2112855275921391851\" target=\"_blank\">Abascal went to the Plaza de Mar\u00eda Pita, where he met with a large group of Vox supporters<\/a>\u2014people who gathered there undeterred by threats from the far left, amidst a heavy deployment of the National Police.
