While Sumar’s negotiations with the rest of the parties reach a crucial moment, Yolanda Díaz’s platform already has the name of the one who will be her spokesperson in the electoral campaign. The name chosen for this position is the MEP of the communes Ernest Urtasun (Barcelona, 1982). This is the second incorporation announced by the team of the second vice president for the campaign team, after the incorporation of the former deputy of Podemos Pablo Bustinduy.

Urtasun is a historic profile of Iniciativa per Catalunya Verds, the left-wing and environmentalist party of Catalonia that over the past decade ended up coming together in the Catalunya en Comú coalition, the project led by the mayoress of Barcelona, Ada Colau. During the first negotiations of the coalition government, in 2019, he was one of the candidates to occupy the Ministry of Universities that Manuel Castells finally occupied. He is currently the spokesperson for ICV.

“From Sumar we are building a project with social and climate justice at the center and, therefore, we aspire to build a country that carries out a just ecological transition that has the world of work within it,” Sumar explained to tell the news. .
An economist and career diplomat, Urtasun has been a member of the European Parliament since 2014, when he joined the lists of La Izquierda Plural, a coalition that included Izquierda Unida, but also ICV, Anoa, Baztarre or Los Verdes Confederation. Those European elections were the irruption of Podemos as a party, with five MEPs, just months after its birth. Urtasun is currently vice president of the green group in the European Parliament.
Urtasun’s is the second major addition to Sumar’s campaign team, after Bustinduy’s this week. The former deputy in the Congress of Deputies for United We Can (2016-2019), specialist in international politics and former head of this area when he was part of the Podemos executive, has already joined the group that is being formed for the Sumar campaign for the next elections on July 23. By profile of him, he will dedicate himself mainly to international affairs.
