Demòcrates has pushed back against criticism from Escaldes-Engordany's minor consul, Quim Dolsa, who described the party as part of Andorra's current problems.
In a thread on X posted on Saturday, the party's official account accused Dolsa of prioritising harsh attacks on the national government—led by Demòcrates—over highlighting local improvements in the parish after more than six years of their administration there. The response, shared alongside Altaveu's interview with Dolsa published that day, labelled his tone as revealing of the comune's leadership mindset.
Demòcrates stressed its consistent "institutional loyalty" towards all comunes, insisting it has always extended a hand in cooperation for the country's benefit. However, it argued that viewing a partner as a "problem" makes collaboration difficult.
Despite the rebuke, the party reaffirmed its commitment to ongoing partnership on key parish projects, including affordable housing on Avinguda del Pessebre and a new cultural space in the upper area to replace the Thyssen museum.
Dolsa had not held back in the interview, directing sharp criticism at the long-governing party. No individual Demòcrates leaders have commented publicly so far.
