The Covid of ‘Pegasus’

With what happens as with COVID, the more we know about the disease, new and more contagious variants emerge. First it was Puigdemont, then the Catalan independents, then Arancha González Laya to reach the climax with the espionage of the President of the Government, the Minister of Defense and now it seems that also the Interior Minister. A matter of the latter in which there are more doubts than certainty and more causality than coincidence, with the long shadow of Morocco as a guest artist on the soap opera.

Reasonable doubts that affect in the first place the veracity of the espionage because given the well-known deceitful and deceitful career of Pedro Sánchez, there are many on the street and in the political elites who do not believe in espionage, although only Oriol Junqueras has said so clearly. The threats with bullets to Pablo Iglesias and Minister Marlaska or the false knife to Reyes Maroto during the 4.M campaign in Madrid, archived by the judge without clarifying are precedents that support the mistrust.

It is true that this hacking of the mobile phones of the president himself and of Margarita Robles seems plausible, especially considering that Merkel, Macron or Boris Johnson had been spied on. But assuming that espionage existed, what? And, above all, why do it now, a year later? The difference with the cited leaders of Germany, France and the United Kingdom is that they and their governments neither made it public nor seriously jeopardized the credibility of their intelligence services and national security. What allied country is now going to trust Spain and the secret services of a State whose head of government has left at the banana level and less than two months away from hosting the NATO summit?

This with the addition of a possible economic derivative through the paralyzation of investments of strategic and multinational companies, when verifying that, as the former minister Josep Piqué has said “”. And then we are surprised that Biden ignores Sánchez and excludes Spain from his international meetings

And this is where causality comes in, not the coincidence of which Núñez Feijóo spoke generously. Because everything indicates that it is an attempt to recover parliamentary support and “good vibes” with Rufián, Junqueras and the ERC independentistas to hold out in La Moncloa at the cost of calling into question the negligence and irresponsibility of a Executive and his boss, who allow themselves to be spied on and take a year to find out, violating national security.

Remember, once again, the words with which a prominent former deputy and former regional leader of the PSOE defined Pedro Sánchez after winning the primaries against Susana Díaz: “he has no project, he has no program, he only has ambition and is capable of selling the party and sell to Spain to achieve their ambitions”.

Of course, this time, the move could seriously turn against him, because the espionage occurred in the midst of a conflict with Morocco over the entry into Spain of the leader of the Polisario Front, Brahim Gali, and with the massive invasion of African emigrants. Events that, seeing the subsequent change in the traditional Spanish policy on the Sahara, recognizing the Moroccan sovereignty of the territory, without consulting the opposition and without informing Parliament, makes some parliamentarians and the media begin to wonder if

It is probable that Sánchez now offers heads in the CNI or in the Executive to save his own ass, but something smells rotten not in Denmark, but here. And these grotesque episodes of a disoriented government and hostage of the independentistas, with the ministers in conflict with each other, together with their strategy of discrediting the institutions, their refusal to state pacts with the opposition and an incompetent and interventionist economic management that has led to being the country with the highest inflation, the most unemployment and the highest deficit and debt in the EU, makes the winds of the end of the cycle begin to blow strongly in Spain.
