Camps Denies €15,000 Fuel Bill, Authorizes Full Disclosure and Seeks Probe

The move pushes a political claim over ex-presidents’ perks into a formal check of public records.

Overview

  • Camps sent a letter to Valencian president Juan Francisco Pérez Llorca denying he spent €15,000 on gasoline and calling the figure absurd.
  • He argued the fuel total does not match the official car’s recorded kilometers and asked the Generalitat for an itemized breakdown and an investigation.
  • He authorized the presidency to give Compromís leader Joan Baldoví the full breakdown of his office expenses and asked for Baldoví’s and his group’s detailed expenses in return.
  • Compromís based its allegation on an official reply signed by Vice President José Luis Díez that put Camps’ 2025 fuel at about €1,200 a month, which the party labeled corruption while pushing to curb ex-presidents’ privileges.
  • Camps noted that the presidency, not ex-presidents’ offices, validates fuel invoices and urged tighter controls, while the matter remains under review with no independent finding reported.
