The PP wants a commission of investigation into the alleged corruptions of Ximo Puig

The electoral campaign arrives and everything goes, especially if they have done it to you. If in the last legislature the PSOE and Unidas Podemos came together to create a commission to investigate all the accounts of the PP, which had Pablo Casado's party under suspicion for months, the PP returns the ball and now requests the constitution, in the Senate, for being the territorial Chamber, of a commission of investigation on the alleged cases of corruption that affect the president of the Valencian Generalitat, Ximo Puig.

Just 24 hours after the Prime Minister, Pedro Sánchez, wanted to attack Alberto Núñez Feijóo by reminding him of the corruption cases in which José María Aznar's vice president, Rodrigo Rato, and former PP ministers Eduardo Zaplana were implicated and Jaume Matas, the spokesman for the Popular Group in the Senate. Javier Maroto, responds with a request for the commission of investigation, after it has been known, according to Maroto, that Ximo Puig granted a subsidy of 200,000 euros, the maximum that can be granted, to a company dotted by the Aduz case.

In the Aduz case, an alleged case of commission collection schemes in which politicians from various parties would be involved, the alleged illegal financing of the PSPV-PSOE is being investigated, led by Ximo Puig, after a former manager of the Valencian PSOE, Francisco Martínez, declares to the judge that a construction company would have financed expenses of the socialist electoral campaigns of 2007 and 2008.

After knowing today, through information in the media, that the president of the Generalitat granted this subsidy of 200,000 euros to a company dotted with the case, the PP has decided to present the request for the creation of this investigation commission, to which The PP, if approved, would summon, first of all, Puig himself, to give explanations, and that he wants him to finish his work before May 28, because "Valencians have the right to know before voting for the truth about the alleged irregularities" that are attributed to the president of the Generalitat.

The PP does not have, at least for the moment, the support of any parliamentary group for the creation of this commission of inquiry, but Javier Maroto considers that refusing its constitution would be "the worst favor that the PSOE can do to Ximo Puig". , since, in his opinion, the refusal would mean "saying that there are doubts" about actions that for the PP already constitute "a scandal that has taken on a national dimension."

And it is that from the latest information published, the PP deduces that the alleged corruption can not only affect the Valencian PSOE, but other socialist territorial organizations "and the PSOE itself", which in its opinion makes it essential that this parliamentary investigation be opened , after the socialists have rejected other investigative commissions in the Valencian Community.
