The helmsmen of the PPD, PS and PR, members of the bloc Progressive Convergence, reiterated the call to the opposition forces to coordinate a strategy of unity, facing the next electoral calendar with the municipal and governor’s elections as the main challenges.
“The unity of the center-left is fundamental for a common project in the face of the challenges of the regions. Likewise, we reiterate our conviction that the primaries are also the ideal mechanism to define unitary candidacies of the center-left to the mayoralties “, indicates the document signed by the respective presidents, Heraldo Muñoz (PPD), Álvaro Elizalde (PS) and Carlos Maldonado (PR).
In that sense, they valued the statement issued from the block Unity for Change (PC, FRVS and PRO), which in a statement released yesterday, expressed their intention to “Make efforts in the direction of enabling primaries for the election of governors or governors, of the entire opposition.”
“We value the openness manifested by this group of opposition parties, coinciding with what we have been proposing, in the sense of promoting legal primaries for regional governors and governors, in such a way as to arrive with unitary candidacies for these historic elections next April” , points to the document.
Given the disposition of the Unity for Change parties, the Progressive Convergence leaders called on the other opposition bloc with representation in Congress, the Broad Front, to take a definition in this regard. “We hope that this positive signal of Unity for Change will be welcomed by the rest of the opposition arch, and we particularly reiterate this call to the Broad Front, a bloc that still has its decision pending”
“We can prevent the right, being a social and political minority, refractory to changes, from obtaining an over-representation in mayors and governorships, but this will be achieved to the extent that we put the general interest of the people, over identity concerns that, being legitimate, they must not hinder the construction of the majorities necessary to carry out the changes that the citizenship is demanding. We reiterate ourselves available to achieve the broadest unitary objective “, concludes the text.
