Editorial: El Mundo

• Almost unanimous opposition from the communities to the autonomous financing reform that favors Catalonia.
• Only Catalonia supported the change proposed by Pedro Sánchez and Oriol Junqueras, even in secret meetings.
• The Treasury's proposal harms the effective financing of Aragon and Castille and Leon, two regions with upcoming elections.
• Both the autonomous Governments of the PP and those of Castille-La Mancha and Asturias expressed their rejection to the approach of María Jesús Montero.
• Moncloa's strategy seeks to divide the leaders of the PP through a round of bilateral contacts.
• The new model, if approved by Congress, would benefit Catalonia at the expense of a tax hike or taking resources from the State.
• Fedea reveals that we are moving towards an a la carte system that could end with the single treasury.

Conclusion: The editorial suggests that there is a need for reform of autonomous financing approached from a multilateral framework and technical criteria, not partisan. Otherwise, a country project alien to equity would be molded.
