The socialist Antonio Miguel Carmona will become vice president of Iberdrola Spain. The company, chaired by Francisco Córcoles, is a professor of Economics and has extensive political experience both in the Madrid Assembly and in the City Council of the capital. The appointment of Carmona as vice president of the subsidiary of the energy company in Spain will be effective in the coming days.
The one who will be the new vice president of the company in Spain was elected deputy by the PSOE in the Madrid Assembly in two stages: between June 1999 and December 2002, and between June 2011 and June 2015. He was later elected councilor in the Madrid City Council in the municipal elections of 2015. He started the legislature as spokesman for the PSOE, but a few months later he was replaced by his colleague Purificación Causapié.
Despite not being in charge of the spokesperson, Carmona remained a mayor for the four years in the Consistory, then chaired by the mayor Manuela Carmena. Doctor in Economic Sciences specialized in economic growth and new technologies, Carmona began his professional career teaching at the Complutense of Madrid and is currently a professor at CEU San Pablo University. At this time, the economist does not occupy any position within the PSOE.
Diverse positions of United We Can, partners of government of the PSOE, have criticized that the appointment, that they appreciate as a new case of “revolving doors”. “The doors, in the PSOE, keep turning. Shame ”, the state co-spokesperson of Podemos, Pablo Fernández, has launched on Twitter.
