He PSOE This Thursday he joined his votes with those of PP and Vox to overthrow in the Plenary of Congress a motion of Can which urged the Government to declassify the documents relating to the attempted coup d’état of February 23, 1981, an old demand that the ‘purples’ have taken up again following the conversations between Juan Carlos I and Bárbara Rey published in recent weeks.
The ‘purple’ initiative has managed to divide the Government’s partners, since Sumar has supported it as have the nationalist and independence groups that provide parliamentary support to the Executive. For her part, the representative of Canarian CoalitionCristina Valido, has chosen to abstain.
The aforementioned audios were recorded in the nineties. In them the king emeritus questions Sabino Fernandez Camposwho was appointed general secretary of the King’s House in 1977 and later became its head, in contrast to General Alfonso Armada, who served as his preceptor since 1954 and preceded Fernández Campos in the General Secretariat of the House of the King.
Armada was sentenced in 1983 to 30 years in prison for military conspiracy in the context of the attempted coup d’état and in 1988 the socialist government of Felipe González He pardoned him. “Armada, seven years in prison, has gone to his manor in Galicia and the uncle has never said a word,” comments the former head of state in the recordings now known.
For Podemos, it is “extremely serious” that a person “so close” to the previous head of state, convicted of participating in an attempted Coup d’état, “has kept some information with the knowledge of the Head of State and that affects him regarding these events.”
Reform of the secrets law
For all these reasons, he wants the Government to make public all the documentation in its possession regarding the attempted coup d’état on February 23. Podemos has registered a bill with the same requirement but last week it chose to question the Minister of Defense on this issue, Margaret Roblesto be able to present this motion now.
In the debate that the Podemos deputy, Javier Sánchez Sernamaintained with Robles, the minister avoided talking about the audios of Juan Carlos I, she referred Podemos to the reform of the Official Secrets Law that the Government has included in its Action Plan for democracy and against hoaxes and insisted that, at the time, “all the documentation and evidentiary material available” had already been made available to the instructor and the court.
