Timeline

1939

Francisco "Paco" Frutos Gras (6 September 1939 – 26 July 2020) was a Spanish politician who served, from 1998 until 2009, as the Secretary-General of the Communist Party of Spain (PCE).

He was born on 6 September 1939 in Calella, province of Barcelona.

A son of peasants, Frutos worked until the age of 25 in agriculture, emigrating later to Germany, and then returning to Barcelona, where he was touched for the first time by trade unionism in a textile factory in Blanes.

There, he was an organiser of the then-clandestine Workers' Commissions (CCOO).

1963

In 1963, Frutos joined the Unified Socialist Party of Catalonia (PSUC), the fraternal party of PCE in Catalonia.

In 1980, Frutos was elected a member of the Parliament of Catalonia, and in 1981, General Secretary of PSUC.

1982

During that period, Frutos oversaw different disputes between Leninists and eurocommunists, that led to the expulsion of the Leninist majority, including Chairman Pere Andarica, that would later become the Communists' Party of Catalonia.

After the resignation of Santiago Carrillo as General Secretary of PCE, and the election of Gerardo Iglesias, due to poor results in the 1982 elections, Frutos transferred to Madrid to work within the Structures of the Central Committee of the PCE.

1986

After the creation of United Left (IU) in 1986, Frutos was also a member of the Presidium of IU.

1993

1996

In the 1996 elections, Frutos was second on the Madrid List of the IU, and succeeded in being re-elected.

1998

1999

In 1999, following Anguita's second stroke, Frutos was asked to be IU's Candidate for Prime Minister in the 2000 elections.

Prior to the elections, Frutos signed a polemic agreement with Spanish Socialist Workers' Party (PSOE), then led by Joaquín Almunia.

In those elections, IU fell from 21 deputies to 8.

Later in the Year, Frutos unsuccessfully disputed IU's General Coordination to Gaspar Llamazares in the 6th Assembly of IU.
