Jose Luis Abalosbut that “everything Ábalos did had Sánchez’s approval“.
At a press conference in Malaga, the “popular” leader declared that “we are perhaps facing the biggest case of corruption in the history of Spain”, which “goes from the bases of the PSOE” up to the “president of the government” and that’s it “surrounded to the eyebrows in corruption“.
“In any democratic country of the European Union, in our environment, the president or the prime minister would give explanations, would dissolve the Cortes and call elections“, defended Bendodo, who spoke of aspects of the affair revealed in recent hours, as alleged considerations that Ábalos obtained of the plot, collected in a UCO report from which it appears that They left him a cottage and paid the rent from his girlfriend of two and a half years.
“This is the case of the PSOE, because it even affects the president of the government,” insisted Bendodo, who criticized the fact that “Sánchez He said he knew nothing about Delcy’s visit. [Rodríguez, vicepresidenta de Venezuela]”, which Ábalos informed him, according to recognized this Friday the socialist leader himself.
Bendodo also assured that “the members of the conspiracy implicated Sánchez”, after the UCO identified Sánchez as “the 1” to which Víctor de Aldama refersin his conversations with the then CEO of Air Europa. Bendodo, however, went further and asserted that “the number one of the group is Pedro Sánchezwas aware of everything and authorized all operations.”
Furthermore, he also requested the resignation of the current Minister of Territorial Policy, Angel Victor Torres, and the President of Congress, Francine Armengolwhom he accuses of having lied during the commission of inquiry into the purchase of masks when they respectively presided over the Canary Islands and the Balearic Islands.

In the same spirit, the spokesperson for the PP in the Senate, Alicia Garciaaccused Sánchez of being the “godfather” of a corrupt conspiracy and demanded that he resign or call elections. During a press conference from the Upper House, he announced that the PP would propose expanding the mandate of the commission of inquiry so that it extends to the actions of the entire Government, it being understood that there are “public works conditioned by bribes and possible illegal financing of the PSOE”.
“Sánchez is the godfather of the conspiracy, corruption pursues him, from Aldama and Koldo to Ferraz and Moncloa and everything The paths of corruption begin and end with the president of the Government, remains in Moncloa only for fear of an independent judicial system”, declared the ‘popular’ senator.
Alberto Núñez Feijóo’s party claims that “corruption came from Moncloa and flooded the entire government” and that Sánchez is “the crux of the plot and he lied, he knew it, he covered it up” and also gave his agreement to the rescue of Air Europa or the arrival in Spain of the Venezuelan vice-president, Delcy Rodríguez”, according to García. For the PP senator, the president “took corruption with his right hand within the PSOE.”, therefore “you only have two options: you must resign or call an electionThere are no more exits.”
