The current situation
In recent days, the president of the Spanish government, Pedro Sánchez, has been in the media spotlight due to the investigations surrounding his wife, Begoña Gómez, for alleged influence peddling and other related issues. Despite this, Sánchez has affirmed that he continues to trust the Justice of his country.
In this context, deputy Gabriel Rufián has lamented the situation that the Spanish president’s family is experiencing and has compared this situation to that which many people linked to Catalan independence and other sectors have suffered for years. Rufián recalled cases of conspiracy and political persecution that have affected people of different origins.
The importance of Justice
Pedro Sánchez has reiterated his confidence in the independence and autonomy of the Judiciary, as well as in the separation of powers. According to the Spanish president, since coming to power six years ago, cases of corruption have come to light that embarrass the public, and work has been done to deal with them.
The need for an investigation
The parliamentary question raised by Gabriel Rufián serves as a preamble for the launch of a commission of inquiry in Congress. This commission aims to shed light on various issues related to the State’s sewers and the so-called ‘Operation Catalonia’, as well as other important issues (https://ca1.10steps.org/Parafrasear-Material-Citado-7761 ).
Rufián has asked Pedro Sánchez what measures he will take in the face of the possibility of more cases like these. The Spanish president has reiterated his confidence in the judiciary and has affirmed that work will be done to deal with any situation that may arise.
A final reflection
In conclusion, the current situation highlights the importance of Justice and the need for a thorough investigation to clarify the facts. It is essential that the independence and autonomy of the judiciary is respected to guarantee transparency and public confidence in the institutions (https://www.softcatala.org/resum-de-textos-en-catala/).
