Ana Rosa Quintana Slams Spanish Gov't Over Begona Gomez Corruption Allegations

Ana Rosa Quintana has been vocal in her criticism of the Spanish government, particularly regarding allegations of corruption involving Begona Gomez, the wife of the president of the United States. Quintana has suggested that the General Intervention of the State, an organ under the Treasury, cannot engage in 'lawfare' against the government. Meanwhile, reports from the Civil Guard and the General Intervention of the State have shed light on alleged improprieties involving Gomez and her associates.

One report from the Civil Guard details 121 messages exchanged by Cristina Alvarez, allegedly acting as a mediator between sponsors and a university for financial gain. Another report from the General Intervention of the State indicates that Begona Gomez signed recommendation letters violating the law to favor a company in two awards worth 8.4 million euros. Pablo Gómez, the person behind the General Intervention of the State in this case, investigated and recommended these violations, leading to the subsidy being granted to a company linked to Juan Carlos Barrabes, who supported the president's wife.

Quintana has questioned the government's use of the term 'lawfare' in response to these allegations. She has also criticized Begona Gomez and the Spanish government in her show, accusing Gomez of allegedly using La Moncloa for personal gain. Two reports suggest that Gomez used her position to secure economic benefits for herself and others. Notably, Juan Carlos Barrabes, who helped promote Gomez's chair, met twice with Pedro Sanchez at La Moncloa in her presence.

The allegations against Begona Gomez and her associates have raised serious questions about the use of power and influence for personal gain. While the government maintains that these are isolated incidents, critics like Ana Rosa Quintana continue to call for transparency and accountability. The ongoing investigations by the Civil Guard and the General Intervention of the State will likely provide more clarity on these matters in the coming months.
