Meetings between the parties involved were accompanied by controversy, since the british minister on some occasions, and the gibraltarian peter caruana on others, hinted that the sovereignty of the nations was “negotiated” in the meetings. Waters of the strait . Foreign ministry spokespersons had to deny these statements on many occasions, but moratinos never considered it appropriate to close the three-way negotiating table, who even traveled to gibraltar in 2009 to meet with the other two parties , despite the fact that the british and gibraltarians ' they sold the conclave as a “key” to the sovereignty of the rock. Well, as el confidencial digital has learned , the attitude of the current foreign minister regarding this issue is “very different” from that of her predecessor. Trinidad jiménez has given the order to “cool down” the tripartite forum with the intention of “not promoting new three-party meetings.” people close to the minister emphasize that "This is not the time to argue about the sovereignty of gibraltar, despite the interest of the government of the rock.
From foreign affairs they remember that " peter caruana is in elections and will want to get votes through demands , and the slogan is that we should not follow the game." at the beginning of the month, jiménez's british counterpart, david lidington, assured Special Database that he hoped to give “new impetus” to cooperation with spain on security matters within the tripartite dialogue forum, emphasizing that he shares gibraltar's position regarding sovereignty. British waters. In this sense, the sources consulted by ecd highlight that "About this and other matters regarding the rock, we agree to speak, but only with the united kingdom ."According to sources from moncloa, consulted by el confidencial digital , zapatero considers that the secretary of organization will be able to carry out this task perfectly from march 22, once he leaves zaragoza and can dedicate himself entirely to his work in ferraz. The socialist leader's assessment of this appointment is fully satisfactory.
He is delighted with him - they confirm from those around him -, also with his performance in recent months, despite the fact that his frequent comings and goings to aragon have prevented him from carrying out his task well." but when he is free, zapatero hopes to give him more play . In his opinion, iglesias will in fact be a “guarantee of stability” , he will be his bulwark to ensure that the psoe allows the apparatus not to favor any candidate. That is the slogan that he has received and that he is already sending to the militancy. Last sunday, in an interview with the newspaper el mundo , he launched several messages precisely in that direction: “in the primaries, the psoe must be colorless, odorless and tasteless and that is how it will be”; “the organization secretariat must maintain an absolutely neutral position in this battle”; “I am going to talk little about the primaries”… the demonstration of the trust that zapatero currently places in marcelino iglesias are the praise he dedicates to him in private. “he is one of the most serious and loyal socialists to the psoe that I have met in these twelve years ,” he said of him recently. This statement is more relevant if one takes into account that the federation of aragon led by marcelino iglesias 'betrayed' him in the 35th congress that elected zapatero as leader of the psoe.
