The president of Vox and candidate for the presidency of the Government, Santiago Abascal, stated today that "national machistas" are in the PSOE, while those he considers "imported" will be expelled from Spain if he comes to power, in an interview granted to Cadena Cope.
Asked if homosexuals have anything to fear from him or if machistas have anything to thank him for, Santiago Abascal responded emphatically that machistas have nothing to thank him for, because, he said, he is going to "remove" imported machistas from Spain by "the fast track".
"That is the great machismo that exists in Spain," he exclaimed, while clarifying that he is referring to the machismo that, in his opinion, is arriving with mass immigration, fundamentalism and with people who, he said, have brought practices to Spain that were unknown, such as genital mutilation or forced marriages, of which he affirmed there are already some cases in Catalonia and that these are growing figures.
Abascal's references to the PSOE and homosexuals
In relation to "national machistas", the president of Vox pointed out that most of them are in the PSOE. In that same part of the interview, Santiago Abascal defended that homosexuals will end up voting for Vox, just as, he said, happens in France with the National Front.
"I have no doubt that they will all end up voting for them," he said, then arguing that Vox is "the party that has the most support among homosexuals because it is the one that defends them from true homophobia, which is the one that arrives, which is the imported one".
Abascal wanted to clarify, however, that Vox recognizes the "dignity of all people", regardless of whether they are men, women, nationals or immigrants, heterosexuals or homosexuals.
Along these lines, he stated that he has friends of all kinds and that he does not classify them based on whether they are nationals, foreigners, men or women, and added that he is convinced that homosexuals are often "kidnapped by a lobby" that wants to interpret them solely based on their sexuality.
"I am much more than my sexuality"
During the interview, Santiago Abascal emphasized that each person is much more than their sexual orientation and used his own experience to illustrate it. "I have my sexuality, but I believe I am much more than my sexuality. I am a father, I am a husband, I am a politician, I am Basque", he declared.
The leader of Vox added that his identity is formed in many ways and that, in his opinion, there are people who are interested in making others believe that homosexuals only have that in their lives.
Finally, he maintained that homosexuals are "people as rich as everyone else" and that they have no problem with Vox, although he insisted that there is a "propaganda war" against his party that, he said, they will have to face.
