Why It Matters
Begoña Gómez is awaiting trial following an investigation for corruption crimes that the PSOE considers a political cause.
Pedro Sánchez has returned to appear accompanied by his wife, Begoña Gómez, after being proclaimed this Saturday as a candidate for the presidency of the Government, “unanimously”, in the federal committee of the PSOE. The wife of the Chief Executive is waiting to sit in the dock in the jury trial to which Judge Juan Carlos Peinado sent her after a controversial investigation for several corruption crimes. For the socialists, who defend the “innocence” of Begoña Gómez, it is a “political cause” that mobilizes the militants and sympathizers of their initials.
The President of the Government has arrived at the rally that the Socialists are holding today in the Madrid town of Fuenlabrada with his wife, to great applause from supporters. Together they went on stage, giving each other kisses and hugs. “How glad I am that today you are accompanied here by Begoña Gómez!”, celebrated the general secretary of the Socialist Youth, Aránzazu Figueroa.
Minister Óscar López, leader of the Madrid socialists, also celebrated the presence of Begoña Gómez at the PSOE electoral event from the stage. “You are at home!” he welcomed him. And he has warned that “there is no money in the world to dismantle the truth, in times of hoaxes.”
