Feijóo niega haber ofrecido pagos a Koldo García para difamar a Sánchez: “Es absolutamente falso”
Gamarra asegura que se han dado todas las explicaciones sobre “la reunión que existió” a pesar de que la portavoz parlamentaria del PP negó la semana pasada cualquier contacto
Alberto Núñez Feijóo, leader of the Popular Party (PP), firmly denies allegations that his party offered payments to Koldo García in exchange for damaging statements about Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez. In an interview with the program En boca de todos on Cuatro, Feijóo stated categorically that "it is absolutely false." The leader of the PP reacted to a report by Cadena SER on Thursday, which revealed an audio tape of García, a former advisor to ex-minister José Luis Ábalos.
On the audio, García claimed he made a deal with Alberto Durán, a lawyer for the Popular Party, to pay his legal expenses and receive a million euros in exchange for providing information that would help bring down Pedro Sánchez. When asked about the supposed offer from Durán, García recounted how the lawyer presented a plea bargain, stating that avoiding jail was a significant benefit.
Feijóo categorically dismissed the allegations, asserting in Durán's name and on behalf of the PP, "no euro was offered to anyone."
