Overview

  • In April 2024, Sánchez triggered a political crisis by publishing an unreviewed resignation letter, citing personal and judicial pressures related to his wife’s investigation.
  • The PSOE leadership experienced shock and uncertainty during the five-day period before Sánchez ultimately decided to remain in office, apologizing to his team for the disruption.
  • Over the past year, Sánchez has introduced a democracy action plan, focusing on media and judicial reforms, with some measures already enacted and others under legislative review.
  • The judicial investigation into Begoña Gómez, led by Judge Juan Carlos Peinado, remains open without conclusive evidence, yet continues to shape public and political discourse.
  • Sánchez has consolidated his position within the PSOE, with no internal challenges to his candidacy for the next general election as he projects resilience and determination.
