The phase 1 exam has generated mixed reactions. The Generalitat, the most combative autonomous government with the management of Pedro Sánchez, He has left for a day the criticism of the Government and expressed his satisfaction that the Spanish Executive has accepted to deconfigure Catalonia by health regions and not by provinces and assume the proposal that, for the moment, only three of them pass the phase. His change in tone contrasts with the outrage of the popular governments of Andalusia and Madrid and also in the socialist of the Valencian generalitat that, despite lowering his tone, he has again expressed his discomfort.
Pablo Casado this Saturday has accused Sanchez of wanting to cover up their “negligence” and “disastrous management” of the coronavirus pandemic criticizing the government of the Community of Madrid. The PP leader has appeared on social networks in defense of the Community of Madrid, after the PSOE has published a poster in which, together with an image of a health company, he points out to the government of the popular Isabel Díaz Ayuso as “an example of ineffective and irresponsible management in the face of the COVID crisis”. “There is no right,” Ayuso has tweeted about it.

His number two, Ignacio Aguado, has again criticized the government’s decision and has pointed out that “letting a week or two pass” before entering phase 1 has “surely dire consequences for thousands of people” who are “on the verge of closure”.
Juan Marín, his Andalusian counterpart and Aguado’s matchmate in Cs, has also harshly attacked Sánchez. “At all times we have maintained loyalty with the Government of Spain, but many decisions have not been consulted. In managing the crisis, Sánchez has imposed his policies and that cannot be. Some will have to explain,” he tweeted. “Looking at the figures of Granada and Malaga and those of other uniprovincial communities such as Cantabria, there is a comparative grievance,” insisted the Andalusian Minister of Health and Families, Jesús Aguirre, who complained that in the Valencian Community and in Catalonia, yes it would have been considered to pass the phase through the health district.
The Valencian ‘consellera’ of Health, Ana Barceló, has lowered the tone of Friday a little, when he denounced that he did not understand “why we did not go to phase 1 being in much better conditions than other autonomous communities”, more when a couple of days before the Ministry of Health gave them “registration of honor “to his plan. This Saturday he has been less forceful, although he has claimed to know the” criteria “that have been followed so that only ten departments pass the phase:” I do not think there is any political tinge, I think that what is they are technical criteria that the Valencian Community simply wants to know so that we can correct it. “
Catalan satisfaction
In contrast, Catalonia has given a day of truce to the Spanish Government. “Collaboration is more useful than imposition”, he sentenced Meritxell Budó, ‘consellera’ of the Presidency, a dynamic that he hopes will continue in the coming weeks. The Catalan executive is, according to his spokesman, “satisfied” with the lack of clarity by health regions. “That is the way. Detailed information and in a reasonable time. Take a step forward to report the phase changes. We appreciate it,” agreed the ‘minister’ of Interior, Miquel Buch, who the previous day had accused the Government of coalition to work in a “hasty and disorderly” way.
