Pedro Sanchez

During the trial in the Badajoz Provincial High Court, David Sánchez, brother of the President of the Spanish Government, Pedro Sánchez, denied having influenced the recruitment, not in the position he obtained as coordinator of the Badajoz Conservatory, not even when his friend Luis Carrero was assigned the .

The head of the Spanish Government has called for "generosity, responsibility and commitment" to dialogue from the groups in Congress and has particularly addressed the independence and nationalist parties in the Basque Country and Catalonia.

On the other hand, the directors of three conservatories who testified on Monday explained that the brother of the President of the Spanish Government "performed his duties correctly" and described the alleged treatment given in his hiring as "rumours and conversations in the corridors".

He assured this at the closing of the 27th Congress of Socialist Youth in Spain, his first public event after hearing the legal proceedings against former President José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero.

On Saturday, the PSOE reiterated its readiness to cooperate with the justice system in the uproar caused by the latest judicial investigations.

The PP's Secretary General, Miguel Tellado, has asked the jeltzale party and the other parties that made it possible for the PSOE to reach the Spanish Government to choose between "being with Pedro Sánchez or being with democracy."

The president of the EBB, Aitor Esteban, has reproached the PP for demanding responsibility while, in his opinion, it favours Vox's approaches, promotes social fragmentation and maintains an attitude of permanent confrontation and criticism of self-government. Era, he believes that Sanchez should not wait until 24 June to give explanations and, furthermore, to confuse himself with the European meeting.

This briefing would take place on 24 June, after participating in the next meeting of the European Council, following the latest judicial decisions affecting the PSOE, in which the opposition and members of the government have called for explanations and early elections.

The jury will have to determine whether the 2017 hiring of the brother of the President of the Spanish Government, Pedro Sánchez, as coordinator of the musical activities of the conservatories in the Badajoz Council met all the legal requirements, or whether it was an alleged plug-in case.

The President of the Spanish Government has defended in Congress the "constructive opposition" of the PNV and has expressed his willingness to continue to have support to complete the legislature. He has done so after the jeltzale party asked that the executive should govern "alone or in company."

The decree allowing contracts that expire this year (from 21 March to 31 December) to be extended for two years and an annual income increase of a maximum of 2%.  was in force since 20 March. 

"A government that violates international law  — and consequently the principles and values of the European Union — cannot be a partner of the European Union; it is so simple and so simple," Sanchez stressed in a pre-election act in Andalusia.

The Spanish President made these statements at the beginning of the Fourth Meeting for the Defence of Democracy held in Barcelona, in which he said that everyone present 'concerns'  eta shares' responsibilities' , which is why he has encouraged all the guests to make decisions.

Asked if he will see his wife Begoña Gomez sitting on the bench of the defendants, the head of the Spanish Government, Pedro Sánchez, has asked the justice system to "do justice".

Judge Juan Carlos Peinado has closed the investigation of the case and has proposed that Pedro Sánchez's wife be tried for four offences: trafficking in influence, corruption in business, embezzlement and misappropriation, and has given the parties five days to present their findings.

A summary, in two words, of what will be news in the Present today.

Transfers and restructuring of the debt of Tubos Reunidos will be other issues to be addressed. España and the Basque Government will hold the fourth meeting of the bilateral commission today, Friday, in Moncloa.

The economic measures plan to mobilise EUR 5 billion. Only Vox voted against and PP and Podemos abstained.
