With more media attention than answers, three days before the elections in Aragon, Paco Salazar appeared for two hours before the Senate's Koldo case investigation committee. the former PSOE leader who had to resign from his positions on the party's executive committee and as institutional coordinator for the Spanish Prime Minister's Office after being internally denounced for alleged cases of sexual harassment and sexist behavior. Following the outbreak of the Santos Cerdán case, he was slated to be part of the new team in the organizational secretariat, but he was never appointed.

This morning there has been The last question time session of the year in the government of Pedro Sánchez and Feijóo has been harshly criticized for the Salazar caseAs the scandals surrounding Sánchez are growing at a remarkable pace, let me refresh your memory: Paco Salazar was a trusted confidant of Sánchez, helping him in the Socialist primaries in Andalusia, bringing him to the Moncloa Palace, and even being on the ballot to become the PSOE's organizational secretary, but he didn't get the position because of sexual harassment by some female colleagues. The accusations were swept under the rug until they resurfaced, forcing the PSOE to apologize. Of course, when you add to a party that already has a former minister in prison for frequenting brothels the sexual harassment allegations against a man close to Sánchez, Sánchez's feminism is called into question. That's why Feijóo attacked him this morning.

A twist in the case of Paco Salazar, the former Socialist leader who was internally denounced by female employees at the Moncloa Palace for alleged sexual harassment. For five months, the Socialist Party headquarters in Ferraz had kept the investigations into the complaints on hold, until this week. Eldiario.es The PSOE made its contents public. This has spurred the PSOE to reactivate the investigations in the face of internal criticism, but also from the PP, which has seen this case as a new target to attack the Spanish government. President Pedro Sánchez personally acknowledged the "mistakes" made in this case on Saturday, and is now going a step further: he will dismiss Salazar's former right-hand man, Antonio Hernández, currently the director of the Political Coordination department in the Prime Minister's office, according to reports. Eldiario.es And sources at Moncloa confirm to ARA.

Almost more important than the fight against corruption within the PSOE is the fight for feminism. The Cerdán case has severely damaged the party, but what has generated the most internal turmoil are the audio recordings of José Luis Ábalos and Koldo García evidencing their use of prostitution and the departure of former high-ranking official in the Moncloa Palace, Paco Salazar, for alleged sexual harassment of female workers. Former PSOE number two, Adriana Lastra, gave a very forceful speech behind closed doors during Saturday's federal committee, denouncing the "complicity" within the party with this type of behavior, and this Monday, the Minister of the Presidency, Félix Bolaños, admitted that the PSOE must "reflect" so that women feel more empowered. However, he asked not to "prejudge" the investigations already underway into Salazar.
