17.06.2025 ⇢ Day Sánchez Played for Time
⌨Sánchez deployed a three-pronged defense strategy following the previous day's party purge. He sent a letter to PSOE membership claiming they faced "a moral demolition operation" while apologizing for the corruption crisis. He then postponed his parliamentary testimony about the Cerdán case until July 9th, defying demands from both opposition and coalition partners for immediate explanations.
The maneuver backfired as coalition partners joined PP efforts to force earlier testimony. Junts specifically demanded "guarantees" about fulfilling agreements while awaiting a new interlocutor. UCO investigations continued revealing deleted conversations between Koldo and Cerdán, while identifying construction company Acciona as having eight employees already prosecuted in a separate case.
Spanish judges escalated their confrontation with the government by calling three days of strikes against government laws. International outlets like The Times labeled Sánchez "Don Teflon," comparing him to mafia boss Gotti. The government also released its delayed report on April's blackout, distributing blame between Red Eléctrica and private companies.

⌨The newspapers report on Santos Cerdán's defense strategy within the PSOE, claiming he "spoke badly" against Ábalos and Koldo to distance himself from the corruption scandal (El Confidencial). New UCO findings reveal that both Koldo and Cerdán deleted parts of their conversations during the investigation (La Razón). Reports identify Acciona as the alleged company that corrupted Cerdán, noting it has eight employees already prosecuted in the separate Acuamed case (infoLibre). Prime Minister Sánchez relies on the PSOE's "forcefulness" with Cerdán to navigate mounting Congressional pressure, even as substitute judges and prosecutors defend their capacity to issue sentences against judicial establishment "offenses" (El Plural, Público). Meanwhile, Spain's under-21 team drew 1-1 with Italy in the European Championship, needing results to advance as group champions (RTVE).
