The Government is trying to send a message of calm and firmness in light of the latest information on the Koldo affair. The President of the Government himself, Pedro Sánchez, spoke after his visit to the Vatican to meet Pope Francis. “There will be no impunity,” Sánchez responded to journalists about the latest information. The leader of the socialists spoke of strength and collaboration with Justice. “Whoever does it pays,” he reiterated.
From Luxembourg, Minister of Justice and the Presidency Félix Bolaños reiterated that the government had already done everything that needed to be done when the first information became known eight months ago. “We excluded him from the party, we asked him for the minutes and at that moment he was no longer part of the government. We acted with total force and we will continue to do so”, defended Bolaños towards the former minister. José Luis Ábalos and his possible accusation.
“We created a commission of inquiry in Congress to make everything known. At the Ministry of Transportation itself, an internal audit was also carried out to find out everything that happened and what we want is let there be an investigation and whoever has to pay, who pays,” he added.
Beyond the message of tranquility that they are trying to convey from La Moncloa and Ferraz, several PSOE leaders in conversation with laSexta reveal that there is considerable concern and concern on this issue. Thus, they recognize that Nobody knows if this scandal is closed and what could come out of it.
Likewise, they describe the former advisor to Minister Ábalos, Koldo García, who gives his name to the case, as a toxic character and believe that anyone with ties to him could be harmed. For this reason, they wonder if an Ábalos cornered by justice will choose to put the president of the government in difficulty, because they recognize that he is very angry with the PSOE since he opened the case against him.
In addition, some PSOE leaders consulted believe that this could become a cause not against the PSOE, but against sanchism.
