MADRID (Sputnik) — Earlier, leader of the PP party which won the elections and acting Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy said that starting from tomorrow, his party will arrange negotiations for the creating the government with all the other parties in Spain.
"If the PP and the PSOE want to negotiate, they can count on us, starting from tomorrow. The seats cannot be more important than people. But if it will be so, Citizens will be in the opposition," Rivera said.
Liberal Citizens party finished fourth with 13 percent on Sunday's elections in Spain, according to the 95 percent of the votes counted, and will be represented by 32 lawmakers in the 350-seat lower house of Parliament, the Congress of Deputies.
"I will not say, as the rest parties do, that we are happy. With 0.9 percent fewer votes, we lost eight seats. We admit that we want more. But the center will remain. You can not have new elections before the each voter's vote has the same worth," said Rivera, promising to fight for a change in the election's system of counting votes.
