Sánchez makes his rally an act of love for Begoña Gómez, awaiting trial: "They have tried to break us, let them hear us loud and clear, I love you"

The rally that Pedro Sánchez offers this Saturday after the federal committee of the PSOE in which he has been acclaimed as a candidate for the presidency has begun with an unusual moment: the one starring the president himself and his wife, Begoña Gómez.

Sánchez has sent a message to his wife, accused among others of alleged crimes of influence peddling and embezzlement: "Today Begoña is with me. I wanted to thank you for being my wife, for being the mother of my daughters and for being my wife." At that moment, Gómez got up to go to her husband's side, kiss him and hug him.

"They have tried to break us in every way, and they have achieved just the opposite: today we are more united and stronger than ever. So, let them hear it loud and clear: I love you," Sánchez proclaimed to cheers from the public.

Begoña Gómez had already been greatly applauded by the militancy upon her arrival at the Tomás y Valiente Art Center in Fuenlabrada, a socialist fiefdom, where the executive committee and the subsequent rally were held.

"Good morning Begoña, you are at home," said the leader of the Madrid socialists, Óscar López, at the beginning of his speech at this event that marks the start of the pre-campaign.
