Among the main challenges of the first hundred days of the Government, he has pointed out that the PGE must be met, “lay the foundations” of the fiscal review and develop social, educational and health policies. “We want to count on the whole of society and all the political forces, only through unity are we going to face the challenges”, he commented.
Faced with the upcoming General Elections, he has shown his desire for a “stable government” in Spain and no margin for repeating elections or creating “unstable governments” given that the Canary Islands in particular “need the understanding and commitment of Brussels and Madrid “.
