España Viva: Your Window to Madrid and Beyond
Friday, Apr 24, 2026

Las tensiones políticas se encienden mientras el PP y Vox chocan por la posible comparecencia de Sánchez en la Asamblea.

Desacuerdo entre PP y Vox sobre la convocatoria del presidente Sánchez dificulta la investigación sobre el supuesto favoritismo.
En un notable enfrentamiento político, el Partido Popular (PP), liderado por Isabel Díaz Ayuso, ha bloqueado momentáneamente el intento de Vox de convocar al Primer Ministro Pedro Sánchez para que testifique ante una comisión de la Asamblea de Madrid.

La comisión está investigando el supuesto favoritismo recibido por la esposa de Sánchez, Begoña Gómez, en sus conexiones profesionales con la Universidad Complutense de Madrid (UCM).

Fuentes dentro del partido de extrema derecha Vox y un portavoz oficial del parlamento regional confirmaron la postura del PP.

El PP justificó su decisión citando el plan de trabajo de la comisión, que estipula que solo los funcionarios públicos deben testificar en esta etapa.

El plan indica que la sesión del miércoles está programada para la aparición de funcionarios de universidades públicas como José María Coello de Portugal Martínezez Peral y Concepción García Gómez, ambos de la Universidad Complutense.

Esta investigación se centra en el empleo de Gómez en la universidad, que comenzó en 2012 y concluyó este año en medio de una investigación judicial, lo que llevó al cierre abrupto tanto de la cátedra como del programa de máster que dirigía.

Según fuentes internas, el PP está interesado en aprovechar la investigación para examinar los lazos de Gómez con el rector de la UCM Joaquín Goyache y para aclarar la base sobre la cual Gómez fue nombrada para liderar el competitivo programa de transformación social.

Surgen preguntas sobre sus calificaciones y las fuentes de financiación de la universidad.

Goyache, durante una reciente aparición en la comisión, desestimó las acusaciones de irregularidad o influencia indebida en los nombramientos de Gómez.

A pesar del retraso procedimental del PP, la perspectiva de convocar a Sánchez todavía persiste.

Una fuente parlamentaria del PP enfatiza que el asunto podría reducirse a crédito político: quién se atribuye el mérito de solicitar el testimonio del Primer Ministro.

Vox acusa al PP de eludir las reglas para monopolizar este posible golpe político.

Sin embargo, es poco probable que Sánchez o los funcionarios del gobierno central respeten la citación.

El precedente histórico indica que estas figuras generalmente rechazan tales convocatorias de asambleas regionales, citando obligaciones solo con los cuerpos legislativos nacionales como el Congreso y el Senado.

Fuentes del gobierno central recuerdan intentos regionales similares durante el mandato de Mariano Rajoy, reafirmando que los ministros del gobierno rara vez consienten las convocatorias investigativas regionales, citando orientaciones del Consejo de Estado.

Por lo tanto, el contexto histórico y legal podría asegurar que el enfrentamiento sobre la aparición de Sánchez en Madrid siga siendo una escaramuza procedimental simbólica.
