Prime Minister Sánchez Defends Attorney General Amid Leaked Message Controversy
In a heated political landscape, Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez has publicly defended State Attorney General Álvaro García Ortiz after recent accusations regarding a leaked message concerning Isabel Díaz Ayuso's boyfriend. The Prime Minister criticized those who made unfounded allegations against García Ortiz, stating that they should issue an apology following revelations from the Civil Guard.
Sánchez pointed out that the investigation found no incriminating messages on García Ortiz's device that would support the claims of misconduct. "Who is going to apologize to the Attorney General of the State? Who will take responsibility?" Sánchez questioned, implying that many voices calling for García Ortiz's resignation were misled by rumors and misinformation.
Highlighting the findings of the Civil Guard, Sánchez emphasized that the report confirmed the absence of damaging messages on García Ortiz's phone during the critical time of the alleged leak. He dismissed the notion that any messages had been intentionally deleted, rebutting claims from critics who now assert such possibilities.
"Now they say no, it's because the messages were deleted. But please, let's elevate the public debate a bit and demand that those who have accused without evidence, and are now being proven to not have existed, apologize and take responsibility," Sánchez urged. This defense underscores a broader call for integrity and accountability in political discourse, as Sánchez seeks to navigate the fallout from the accusations against his administration and restore confidence in public institutions.
