Turbulence-hit Singapore Airlines flight: Three Malaysians in ICU conscious but closely monitored, six others stable and under surveillance, says country’s ambassador to ThailandSpanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez defended his wife against graft allegations yesterday, just days after Argentina’s president sparked a diplomatic row by calling her ‘corrupt’ at a conference of far-right leaders in Madrid.
A second complaint against Sanchez’s wife was then filed by another pressure group linked to the far right, Hazte Oir.Sanchez told parliament he was confident the judge would soon shelve these “two false complaints” because “they are only mud, a collection of fake news, defamations, manipulated information and veiled accusations”.
Sanchez had initially reacted to the news of the criminal inquiry by suspending his public duties for five days to weigh his future, before saying that he would stay on.On Sunday, Argentina’s President Javier Milei told a Madrid conference organised by Spanish far-right Vox party that Sanchez had “a corrupt wife” and had taken “five days to think about it”.
