• Sentence: Six years in jail for José Antonio Griñán and nine years of disqualification for Chaves
  • Consequences: Ferraz stalks again to knock Susana Díaz down after the ERE ruling

Pedro Sánchez has not given explanations about the ERE ruling, known this week, and does not plan to rule on it. The position of the Government is that the corruption scandal that has led to the conviction of José Antonio Griñán to six years in prison and Manuel Chaves to nine years of disqualification - two former PSOE presidents, two former Andalusian presidents - does not concern the socialist leader Not to his party. "In none of the ways concerns you," said Isabel Celaá, spokesman for the Executive, after the Council of Ministers .

Sánchez's silence has been criticized by opposition parties, especially PP and Cs, which precisely govern the Junta de Andalucía. In an attempt to pronounce it, the popular have advanced that the first petition they will register when the Courts are constituted on December 3 will be the extraordinary and urgent appearance of the acting president for the scandal of the ERE. The Executive rules out that Sanchez comes to Congress for this reason.

The Cabinet of Sanchez closes ranks with him, arguing that the diversion of almost 680 million euros destined to the unemployed in Andalusia under governments of the PSOE is something foreign to the formation and the current leaders of the same. "It does not affect this Government, much less the president of the Government in office. In none of the ways it concerns him," said the spokeswoman for the Executive, when asked if Sanchez would be willing to go to Congress as the PP wants.

"[The ERE ruling] is not indifferent to us, it hurts us deeply, but it does not affect either the Government or the party as such, which does not even once get involved in what the sentence means," has been the message released from Moncloa .
