Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez to Testify in Corruption Case
News summary

Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez has been summoned to testify as a witness in a corruption investigation involving allegations against his wife, Begona Gomez, scheduled for July 30 at the Moncloa Palace. Judge Juan Carlos Peinado, overseeing the case, stated that Sanchez's testimony is deemed 'convenient, useful, and relevant' to the inquiry, which revolves around Gomez potentially using her status to secure sponsorships for a university course. This marks a historic event, as it is the first time since 2017 that a sitting Spanish Prime Minister has been called to testify in such a case. Sanchez has publicly denounced the allegations as baseless and politically motivated and previously considered resigning over the situation in April. Gomez has appeared before the judge but did not answer any questions regarding the accusations. The case continues to draw significant attention in Spanish politics.
