02.07.2025Day Coalition's Future Wavered
Spanish media remained dominated by the Santos Cerdán corruption case, with reports detailing his initial days in prison and the UCO's expanded efforts to trace illicit funds. José Blanco's implication in influence peddling added another layer to the scandal. The political fallout intensified throughout the day as Sumar consistently warned the PSOE that its "disorientation" and "immobility" regarding the case could collapse the legislature, putting the government's future at stake. Concurrently, the People's Party confirmed key leadership changes, naming Tellado as Secretary General and Ester Muñoz as Congressional spokesperson. Separately, major disruptions plagued Barajas T4 airport due to a computer problem, causing significant passenger chaos and lost flights. High-speed rail services also faced interruptions due to a fire in Lleida. Allegations of sexual abuse against a UB professor also gained traction.
