Spain, Sanchez thinks about resigning due to his wife's problems

A few months after the jumble of promises and amnesties to be able to govern, Pedro Sanchez could leave his post as head of the Spanish government. The confirmation came directly from the socialist: in a letter to the citizens, he announced that he will evaluate whether “it is worth” continuing after the wife, Begoña Gómeza new one has been openedpreliminary investigation for trafficking in illicit influence and corruption following a complaint filed by Manos Limpias (Clean Hands, ed.), an organization defined by the leader as “ultra-right”.

As confirmed by the Spanish press, the Madrid judge Juan Carlos Peinados has opened proceedings against Gomez to investigate her relationships with some private companies that they received funds and public contracts from the government led by her husband. For his part, Sanchez defended his wife by stating that the accusations are based on “falsehoods” and denounced a “mud machine” set in motion against him by the People's Party and Vox. “Despite days like this, I still believe in justice,” his j'accuse.

To throw her into confusion, Sanchez spoke of his supposedly progressive political line supported by millions of Spaniards in the elections, but he also made a point of rejecting the right's portrayal of a man who loves power and clings to his seat. Vittimismo resounding, but it's hardly a surprise. But above all there is a doubt that has not yet been answered: why take five days to decide? The European elections are upon us and this is a detail that should not be underestimated.

The future of the Spanish government is yet to be written. There are many doubts, because it could simply be a political operation by Sanchez: after these days of evaluation, he could transform Monday's press conference into an electoral rally. Also because it seems complicated to imagine a step back after everything he has done to remain in government. Further updates coming soon.
