Oltra Reemerges at EUPV Feminism Event as Valencia’s Left Courts Her

Her low‑key appearance at a feminism forum hosted by EUPV is prompting fresh overtures for a potential 2027 alliance.

Overview

  • Mónica Oltra attended a feminist roundtable at EUPV’s Valencia headquarters, telling the audience she was there for Rosa Pérez Garijo’s doctoral thesis and sidestepping immediate political readings.
  • Iniciativa figures say they hope to persuade Oltra to define a return that could include leading Compromís or a broader platform with Esquerra Unida’s backing.
  • Ens Uneix has publicly floated the idea of Oltra running as its mayoral candidate in València, an option others in the left consider unlikely to advance.
  • The event featured minister Sira Rego and leaders from CCOO‑PV, STEPV‑Intersindical and Acció Cultural, with discussion of pay and promotion gaps and care work as core feminist priorities.
  • Sources recall vetoes between left parties that preceded their 2023 losses in the Generalitat and València city hall, a backdrop now driving talks on coordination for 2027.
