The leader of the PP, Alberto Núñez Feijóogo in the last decision of Pedro Sanchez a strategy of “victimization” and electoral opportunism at the gates of the Catalan elections and the next European ones. He also accuses the president of assuming “a unprecedented resignation“by announcing this Wednesday afternoon that he is canceling his agenda and considering resigning the Presidency of the Government after a Madrid court has opened proceedings against his wife, Begoña Gómez, due to a complaint from the organization Manos Médicas for alleged crimes of influence peddling and private corruption.
For this reason, the socialist has announced that he will give himself five days of reflection to decide whether to continue leading his position. But the opposition, which has been demanding for weeks that the president give all the explanations about the information that points to his personal circle, believes that “instead of disappearing for five days, The president must appear urgently to give a reasoned explanation of the scandals that surround his party, his Government and his partner.” He even jokes: “What should Ayuso do? Fuck for a month? “, Feijóo launched on Onda Cero later in relation to the accusations that have been made against the president of Madrid due to the investigations opened against her partner.
For this reason, the popular ones indicate that the president once again opts for “silence and not transparency.” For Feijóo, Sánchez’s objective is threefold: “victimize himself”, “muddy up and polarize even more” political life and try to “activate and mobilize” his electorate in the face of the next electoral events, as he explained on Onda Cero . In this interview, the opposition leader insists that Sánchez has “a problem” with justice, but that he tries to blame the rest of the political groups. Furthermore, he believes that “No wife” of a president “has been involved in what Sánchez and his partner are in.”
Sources from his party maintain that “it is not one complaint or another, but the proceedings opened by judicial bodies” and, therefore, that “their problem is not only political but fundamentally judicial.” Hence they regret that he assumes the role of “victim” instead of “be accountable and clear.” For this reason, the popular one suggests to the socialist that “if he really wants to protect his family, he must give a public explanation” for the information that is becoming known instead of “taking letters to the citizens.” “This is irresponsible, a frivolity inappropriate for a president of the Government of the European Union.”
The popular ones add to this that in their letter “deepens division and polarization.” And Sánchez has dedicated “four pages to write the words ‘right and extreme right’ 14 times, but zero lines to give an explanation about the investigations initiated more than a year ago by the Civil Guard, the Anti-Corruption Prosecutor’s Office and the National Court, and which were known in the month of February, to which are now added those opened in a Madrid court”.
With all of the above, the PP of Alberto Núñez Feijóo considers that Sánchez will use next Monday’s press conference, in which he plans to announce his decision, as a “Electoral campaign act of Pedro Sánchez, in which he will try to make visible that he is a victim and not a leading actor in episodes that are marking the international image of our country.” Furthermore, the leader of the PP has predicted that Sánchez will not resign from his position and that he will allege that after the “shows of affection and unconditional support”, He will say “probably” that he remains to “stop the right and the extreme right.”
