The general secretary of the PP, Cuca Gamarra, appeared this afternoon in Congress to make an assessment of the latest revelations about the Koldo case, as a result of which she has demanded immediate explanations, today, from the President of the Government, Pedro Sánchez, since his wife, Begoña Gómez, has been accused of meeting with one of the businessmen involved in the plot, Víctor de Aldama, whose name is mentioned in the summary.
“We do not accuse (Begoña Gómez), we ask for explanations about the meetings with commission agents who are related to the president’s closest environment,” said the popular leader, who has indicated that everything related to “matters that are resolved in the Council of Ministers” and that affect “companies that have interests in the Government’s decisions.
In this sense, Gamarra has denounced that “corruption corners and corners Pedro Sánchez”, so the president “can no longer deceive anyone” and “say that he knew nothing” following the leak of the contents of the summary. “She is getting closer and closer,” said the general secretary of the PP, who has elevated the Koldo case to the “Sanchez case” in that it affects his “most intimate circle in the leadership of the PSOE” and his wife, who, although His name does not appear in the case, he met with a commission agent of the plot and with businessmen who have been favored by the Government’s action, as reported by Gamarra.
As her leader, Alberto Núñez Feijóo, had done hours before in the Senate, the deputy referred to the degree of knowledge that Sánchez had of the investigation: “We also know that he was warned six times about this bribery plot and did not went to court. He has not denied at any time that he did not know her,” stressed Gamarra, who questioned the “authentic reasons” for the dismissal of José Luis Ábalos as Minister of Transport and his replacement as secretary of organization of the PSOE, in 2021.
“Sánchez knew it and covered it up, he is more cornered with each passing hour, he is missing and must give explanations to the Spanish people, who deserve absolute transparency, about his political and personal responsibility in this corruption plot,” the popular leader reiterated. , who criticized the absence of the President of the Government in this Thursday’s plenary session: “At the rate at which the headlines are going, Spain can only last a short time without offering explanations,” he concluded.
And regarding the hypothetical contacts of Koldo García and his entourage with the PP spokesperson in Congress, Miguel Tellado, Gamarra, like Feijóo, has categorically denied them: “It is indecent that today the PSOE asks for explanations for something that did not happen, that it did not happen, that it is absolutely false,” he assured, pointing to the fact that García and Ábalos knew that they were being investigated and that in this way they perhaps sought to divert attention. “On January 10 (the date cited in the summary) at ten in the morning Tellado was in the Senate,” he has used as an alibi. “We don’t have twins,” Gamarra ironically said.
“They saw us with their own eyes, they should stop putting the fan on because they won’t find anything. They are the ones who have corruption under their seats,” argued the popular leader, who does not rule out requesting the appearance of Sánchez or his wife. in the commission that the PP has promoted in the Upper House, where it has an absolute majority.
