When the news of the investigation into his wife was made public last week, Sanchez thought it best through X, the old Twitter, to send a letter to the citizens declaring that he would take five days break to reflect on whether it was worth continuing and suspending all of his activities, leaving the entire political and media world stunned by an act that had never been seen in the history not only of Spain, but of any Western democratic country.
Sanchez's objective, as former Prime Minister Aznar explained very well in an article published on the blog of his Faes foundation, was to mount street demonstrations in his favor, which actually happened over the weekend, and then be able to ask more powers to eliminate judicial autonomythe opposing press which he accuses of spreading fake news and the power of the Senate where he is in the minority.
Indeed, last Monday Sanchez dissolved his reservation, saying that he would remain to fight the “return of the ghosts of the past” and announcing initiatives on the judiciary, the free press and the power of the Senate.
