The main target for the next years should be growth and job creation.

I am in favor of reducing all budget items. But the item I don't want to reduce is the pension expenditure because it affects the weakest part of society.

Spain is facing an economic situation of extreme difficulty, I repeat, of extreme difficulty, and anyone who doesn't understand that is fooling themselves.

The worst thing a government can do now in Spain is to do nothing.

We have to change economic policy: create confidence, foster investment, cut the public deficit, restructure taxation, and reform the labor laws.

Europe must dissipate any doubts over the euro, affirm that the euro is an irreversible project and act in consequence.

For me, there will be no enemies but unemployment, the deficit, excessive debt, economic stagnation and anything else that keeps our country in these critical circumstances.
