Isabel Díaz Ayuso has broken her silence on the Rubiales case for the alleged attack on Madrid soccer player Jennifer Hermoso. But he has not done so to demand the resignation of the president of the Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF), Luis Rubiales, as some of his counterparts have done several days ago, but to denounce the "total manipulation" in which "we live "For the informative treatment of the case of the women's team regarding the boycott of the Vuelta.
The president of the Community of Madrid has used her social networks to ironize about the different media treatment given to the "unpresentable behavior" of Rubiales, and the "boycott" suffered by the Cycling Tour of Spain in Catalonia in what is her first comment about of the damnable episode suffered by the Madrid soccer player Jennifer Hermoso.
A few words that come after the mayor of London, Sadiq Khan, or the German Foreign Minister, Annalena Baerbock, who exemplified what happened by raising the same situation with different protagonists: on the one hand, the then chancellor German Angela Merkel with the captain of the men's team, Philipp Lahm, during the victory in the men's World Cup in 2014: "Everyone would have thought it was incredible and that says it all."
In addition to the criticism from a large part of the government -including the second vice president, Yolanda Díaz, and the Minister of Culture and Sports, Miquel Iceta-, as well as the general coordinator of the PP, Elías Bendodo, Rubiales' act has caused a significant wave of rejection in the world of women's sports, especially in the United States, offering a bad image of Spain abroad.
In the case of Ayuso, however, the president of the Community of Madrid considers it "interesting" that the international press deals with "the unpresentable behavior of Rubiales" after kissing the player Jenni Hermoso at the final medal ceremony of the Women's Soccer World Cup, but that "no one denounces the boycott" of the Cycling Tour of Spain in Catalonia by, he points out, "the independentistas" who are negotiating with the acting President of the Government, Pedro Sánchez, It is a "total manipulation "concludes the Madrid leader.
Ayuso puts the focus, with his publication, on the criticism of the runners before the appearance of thumbtacks on the road and the arrest of four people in the Solsonès region (Lleida) for alleged threats against the cycling event whose first stages have passed through Catalan roads.
The leader of the PSOE of Madrid, Juan Lobato, has reacted to the words of the president of the Community accusing her of "lack of sensitivity and empathy" with Hermoso: "It is a position that supposes a setback that I think the women of this region or the whole of Madrid society".
