Defense.The Jemad presents his resignation to Margarita Robles after having advanced his vaccination
The advance vaccination according to the protocols of the Chief of Defense Staff (Jemad), General Villarroya, and his dismissal from office continue to take place at present in national politics.
The mayor of Madrid and national spokesman for the Popular Party, José Luis Martínez-Almeida, opened a new avenue in the case this Sunday, stating that "it is very logical" and "reasonable" for the authorities at the forefront of the pandemic to be vaccinated "when before".
"I would like to know the specific details because it seems that there is some controversy as to whether he was complying with an order. (...) But
I agree that the Defense General Staff and even the Government should be vaccinated because we are in a situation of crisis
and those who have the responsibility of directing the Nation and making fundamental decisions for the future, it seems to me very logical and reasonable that they should be vaccinated before, "said the
popular
spokesman
.
Almeida has pointed out that
Spain "cannot be left headless"
and has justified that senior officials of the Defense Staff and the central government should be vaccinated "as soon as possible" because our country is at "a crucial moment" to stop the coronavirus .
"We are not talking about just anyone, it is an insignificant number of vaccines and other groups are not being deprived of receiving it," said the mayor of Madrid.
In addition, the
popular
councilor
of the capital has detached this vaccination process from high government officials who are on the front line in the face of the pandemic of
"cases of politicians who have been vaccinated when they should not" and who, as he has expressed, "should assume responsibility "
for failing to comply with health protocols and has shown" total respect "for the figure of General Villarroya.
"I cannot pronounce on the specific case because I do not have all the data but he has all my respect for his work during the pandemic and his professionalism," he concluded.
In the letter of resignation, delivered yesterday to the Minister of Defense, Margarita Robles, the Jemad stressed that
in his 45-year military career he has tried to "serve as an example to his subordinates" and "do the right thing"
because those are "attitudes that are part of his responsibilities as Head of the Armed Forces Operational Structure ".
One of the controversies about the early vaccination of Jemad and other high-ranking military officials focuses on the fact that, while they have been immunized, more than 100 health workers from the Gómez Ulla Central Defense Hospital in Madrid have remained unvaccinated, as reported yesterday Saturday THE WORLD.
