Many Spaniards today wonder why the Supreme Tribunal heard about the alleged payment of money in Ferraz and what it has to do with the masks or collocation novias of Jose Luis Abalos when only three main accusers appear at the banquet: your former minister, Koldo Garcia y Victor de Aldama.
A non-embargo response must be clearly explained.
Since the indexes don’t point you to the episodes below, Spanish justice has the duty to desenmarañar up to communicating ships of the same architecture.
The key is to understand that corruption in this case does not appear as a compact and organized bloc. It proceeds like red from pies that are fed together, like favors cruzados, like money that circulates through different behaviors. and benefits that are divided into distinct terms.
So what appears in the Supreme today is not a collection of obscure anecdotes, but perhaps the anatomy of a single operation of power, negotiation, and influence.
And in this operation, according to what the witnesses described, there is a main corruptor: Aldama. Before him the corrupt who accepted: Ábalos and Koldo.
Resolution matters. It is important because each piece is placed in its place and because it helps to understand in a coherent form what is seen fragmentarily, It can seem like a confusing mosaic.
If Aldama acts as an intermediary, financier or sales intermediary; if Ábalos and Koldo receive money, access or consideration; Sometimes the prize was a license, sometimes a decision, sometimes political influence, sometimes personal gain, sometimes even before separate cases, even before the same circuit of exchange.
Corruptors and corruptees recognize each other, are necessary, and intermingle.
It is therefore not surprising that today’s declarations also appear Air Europa, masks, hydrocarbons or including the alleged illegal financing of the PSOE as more or less clear derivatives of the same.
The plot is one, but its consequences are numerous.
And that is precisely why it would be a mistake to require every test that is hampered by the geometric clarity of the administrative means.
In such cases, the judicial truth usually appears disorganized, partially deshilachada, with references to other deals, other payments and other operations that cross each other.
This is precisely the task of justice: to eliminate what belongs to the core of the plot and what forms part of its derivatives; what is accessory and what is structural; what constitutes a direct trial and what is merely an indication of the context.
Justice must therefore be able to follow the trail of money, calls, intermediaries and favors until a complete map can be reconstructed.
And it’s clear that what happened with the masks wasn’t just an “occasional” plot, handled by the failure of controls during the pandemic, to the first step of a longer sequence which reveals the patronage of systemic corruption by the PSOE, the government or bothentonces el país tener derecho a saberlo, caiga quien caiga.
Because what is in the Supreme today is a disturbing thought: that public power has been used as a bargaining chip. At the beginning for the accused. But it is also a question for the PSOE and for the government Pedro Sánchez.
Contracts, licenses or public subsidies created private peaies in metal or concrete. And when politics is transformed at the negotiation stage for particular interests, the degradation is not limited to those involved. Look at the institutions that are supposed to protect citizens.
The government and the PSOE cannot long take refuge in the comfort of the “air case” or the “Covid exemption”.
Because the indications that appear say something else: that there are vessels that communicate between different causes, different transactions, and different favors; that money flowed in different ways but in a common direction; and that the pieces, when the joints are placed, they demonstrate a similar culture of impunity.
The duty is now clear. Justice must be completed to the end. And President Sánchez, despite all this, must stop looking at what you seem to be eager to follow and treat it as a sum of coincidences.
It ends by accrediting the existence of a conspiracy of systemic corruption in the PSOE and the government, although this is the result of a failure to monitor and not an action in favor of this conspiracy, the country will demand a response at the peak of the severity of the damage caused.
