Before being a journalist and a military man, the life of

Raúl del Pozo

and

Félix Sanz Roldán

had already been united by Education.

The columnist was one of the teachers - not a teacher - of whom he would become director of the National Intelligence Center.

"He taught me to read," remarked the former spy chief.

This Thursday the inauguration of the Master's Degree in Investigative, Data and Visualization Journalism rejoined its paths in the presence of the new students of the 2021/2022 class.

"I always went to the academies on the first day of the course and the

first thing I told the cadets was that one of them was going to be my successor even if they didn't understand anything that day,

" said Sanz Roldán, who between 2004 and 2008 was also Chief of the Defense Staff.

"

From this moment, be aware that you are called for a high responsibility in the world of journalism,

" said Sanz Roldán, who pointed out that the future role of students is "the search for the truth in any situation" to get citizens "Well trained" because without that "democracy does not work."

The former director of the CNI also answered questions from students about 23-F, the work of spies in terrorist attacks or the reform of the Official Secrets Law.

Not so to that of Raúl del Pozo on the return of King Juan Carlos to Spain: «

Is nougat going to be eaten in our country?

».

A question to which the military only contributed a brief "I don't know."

The EL MUNDO columnist had previously made an introduction of his fellow Cuenca citizen, glossing his professional merits with more than 110,000 subordinates in his Jemad stage and 3,500 agents in the CNI.

"

It is possible that since Julián Romero, Felipe II's escort, there has not been such an important military in this country,

" added the journalist.

Del Pozo also wanted to highlight, coinciding with the day that the National Court considered the payment in b for the headquarters of the PP, "the vocation" of EL MUNDO as "the

Spanish

Washington Post

."

"I remind you that this is a newspaper that has always been in the fight against corruption and terrorism," he assured the students present.

In the same vein, the director of EL MUNDO, Francisco Rosell, highlighted the "essential role" of data and research because without them "there is no journalism."

"This master's degree will serve to keep citizens well informed," he added, accompanied by Rafael Moyano, director of the School of Editorial Unity and the vice-dean of the Rey Juan Carlos Lorenzo Torres University.
