Hacienda Minister María Jesús Montero has announced a new regional financing model injecting 21,000 million euros annually to the communities, following a pact with ERC. The system ensures ordinality for Catalonia and reduces financing gaps between regions. The PP rejects the proposal, while internal PSOE criticisms emerge.
The government has confirmed that President Pedro Sánchez held two discreet meetings with ERC leader Oriol Junqueras before their public January 8 gathering at La Moncloa. These focused on negotiating the new regional financing system, which will benefit Catalonia with an additional 4,700 million euros. The confirmation follows days of official silence and highlights Sánchez's strategic push to seal deals with ERC.
