Alberto Núñez Feijóo assured this Wednesday in the first control session to the Government since the that Pedro Sánchez knew of all the cases of corruption that affect the Executive and the PSOE and that he sought to cover them up. He has even accused the president of “practicing state crime.” “I did not imagine that you could reach this limit, but it is evident that you have no limits. In the end you will go down in history, you will do so as the inducer, financier and beneficiary of the most serious case of corruption in our democracy,” said Feijóo, who concluded his speech with a request for Sánchez’s resignation: “Mr. PS, if you knew everything, you will have to resign for corruption. And if you did not know, you will have to resign for incompetence.”
Pedro Sánchez has responded that he will “never” assume “the degree of hypocrisy of the Púnica party, the Gürtel, the patriotic police, the Marcial Dorado party” and has refused to resign and bring forward the elections. “In the Spanish Constitution, four years of mandate are set for these general courts and we are going to fulfill it in 2027,” said the President of the Government, who has criticized that the PP is a “shaming opposition.” “Continue with your maneuvers as much as you want, let us and much further,” said Sánchez, who concluded his response to the president of the PP who from his party “give lessons in democracy, but do not accept the result of the elections.” “We are in the best moment in the democratic history of our country and you are the worst leader of the opposition in this democracy,” he concluded.
The head of the Executive has also responded to the spokesperson for Junts per Catalunya, Míriam Nogueras, who asked Sánchez about how he sees Catalonia. Sánchez responded with a brief “I see it well”, to which Nogueras replied that the Catalans receive “third-class treatment” and that the Executive only remembers Catalonia when it needs their votes. “He is incapable of managing any crisis, neither rodalíes, nor teachers, nor corruption,” criticized the Junts spokesperson, who has denounced that he does not defend Catalan either. “That the Holy Father has in one hour that you and Mr. Feijóo together throughout your political career, explains very well how much Catalonia matters to you,” he concluded. Sánchez has replied that he respects Catalan, Galician and Basque and has referred to an “agenda of reunion, of coexistence” and the “process of political normalization” that began after the approval of the amnesty law.
For her part, the spokesperson for EH Bildu in the Lower House, Mertxe Aizpurua, has assured in her speech that Sánchez must “clarify everything” he knows about the cases of corruption that affect his environment in his statement before Congress, scheduled for Wednesday, June 24: “He must clarify everything and we will demand that he clarify the responsibilities that are necessary in the face of any type of corruption, because corruption, wherever it comes from, is one of the greatest burdens for any society,” said Aizpurua, who subsequently emphasized the need to end the “situation of paralysis and recover the political and social agenda.” “If you want to exhaust the legislature, you must demonstrate why you should give it a purpose and that involves accelerating the pending social transformations, which are not few,” challenged the EH Bildu spokesperson.
Sánchez has responded to Aizpurua with the measures that the Executive is taking and has assured that he runs a “government that is uncomfortable for the elites.” He has also referred to cases of corruption and requests for resignation: “We are forceful in our response to cases of lack of solidarity and corruption in our party, but we will continue to be equally forceful in our response to the lies, deceptions and lies that are being spread about the Socialist Party and my Government,” said the head of the Executive.
The general secretary of the PP, Miguel Tellado, has referred in his question to the Minister of the Presidency, Félix Bolaños, to the plot of Leire Díez, the so-called plumber of the PSOE. Tellado has said that “that sewer is going to be the political epitaph of the Government” and has assured that the minister “implemented counter-reforms of justice when the dirty war was activated.” “I guarantee that the judges, the prosecutors and the State Security Forces and Bodies in this legislature and with this Government have worked without any interference, and this has not always happened like this, remember what you have on your back with the Kitchen plot that is now being tried,” Bolaños defended himself, asking Tellado not to slander: “Please, do not slander, you yourself are cited in some corruption cases, as a contact of people accused of serious crimes.” crimes, and I do not slander him, I do not defame him. Let justice do its job. Please do the same, the Pope said the other day. “Take care of your words and seek the truth.”
